Pandora checked with Patti to see if all was okay,then turned as her dad came in the door...."Father...Stoney and Alise are here, I'm on my way to the table, join me?"

Traeger gave her a hug and together they headed across the room... his attention diverted by the head full of flaming hair sitting with the gargoyles, surely an Irish woman... but not close enough to see yet.

Pandora slipped into Ob's lap, her favorite place... his arms holding her securely while he planted small kisses on her neck... she was so occupied she didn't notice her father...

Traeger had stopped in his tracks, the woman was attractive, and pagan... he could feel her aura, a healer he believed. He stood still, staring into her eyes... feeling himself and her alone on some hilly place like the moors... they were dressed in ancient celtic garments... he drew his eyes away for a moment and the vision vanished. What the hell was that, he thought to himself... yet when he looked again at the woman she didn't appear flustered at all. Either she didn't feel it, or she knew what it was...

Traeger walked up to Stoney and Alise and said, "How are my friends today... I am so happy to see you both together again. and my daughter tells me congratulations are in order... you are to wed." Turning; he said to the attractive woman, "I am Traeger... Pandora's father... do I know you from somewhere? there is an air of familiarity to you..." He laughed at the friendly look on her face, feeling suddenly like a school boy.

Stoney introduced them... and he learned her name was Rowan, she was definately celtic... he reached for her hand, prepared to kiss her fingertips... and found her hand warm and relaxed...as if she was kissed everyday... he looked into her eyes again and found her assessing him... hmmmm, this could be an interesting evening. Jack was there and Traeger greeted him as well, his side vision still watching the charming woman....
