Out in the slums, Amana grew impatient explaining once again to the old warrior what her orders were. But it was worth making Anat cringe at the sight of Amana switching to her true gender. They had been talking and arguing for at least half an hour, and this rain was about to drive the lady Ill Bast mad.
"Oh don't be such a worry wart Anat. Just headback back. Give my newest... words of advice. See that the news is spread sufficiently."
The older woman spat, and glared at the freak before her. She didn't intend to run all of her errands like a damn puppy.
Amana watched all this with calm eyes, then sighed dramatically. "Oh Anat dear, you are such a horrid little beast." Then the chaos priestess patted the other woman's cheek, like she was talking to a saucy child. But in an entirely different voice, one laced with venom, she made her next demand.
"I would run along, Pet, I'll return to Qu'ellar d'lil Elghinyrr Anulo later tonight."
And with that the two figures parted ways, the warrior pulling her hood down over her face, and back into the muddy streets and dismal weather.
The priestess lingered a moment however, pulling on a lavish velvet hood lined with fur, then made her way to the kitchen drawer. Most of the good spoons went missing that moment.
Then she daintly skipped out of the house, leaving the dead woman the merrily lit kitchen, and stood pondering in the rain a moment, staring at the small home.
A certain Inujin with a strange accent would be able to see her, standing in the street quietly peering at a house, getting completely drenched by the downpour.

Thankfully for Elan's sanity, it has seemed to have calmed down, and although people were crowded about him, it wasn't as panic enducing as before. So he sat down at a table, and ordered a little wine, motioning for Will to join him, and then nodded for Kris and the adorable black nekojin to have a seat as well.
He had given up on having the slightest bit of privacy. So in an even tone, every so often sipping his wine, he told Will and the other newcomers what he had already said. He also explained, for those who seemed not to know, who his sister was. He hoped that perhaps the repetition of this story, might bore Kumiko, and that terrifying woman might leave. Eliminating another source of stress.
After he had finished his tail, he pushed his chair back and waited for the inevitable questions and chatter that would follow all this remarkable information.
