Inari has blended in perfectly with the large oak tree she's standing against. No one would notice a thing unless she blinked her eyes, and even then one would have to be looking right at them. After several hours of tracking and observation this seemed to be the spot where Morgan's demifae made most of their contacts from the other realms. So far, she hadnt learned much. The demifae had sent Morgan messages about her property being confiscated and that she was hunted now by both courts. It was her that hurt Miko, slamming him into the wall after he stuck her with the hatpin. The stick wasnt healing and apparently was giving Morgan a great deal of pain. Inari has learned that it was Morgan who brought the Bloodbane to the human realm and that she had spelled the deliveryman into unknowingly carrying the poison into the tavern. Morgan was also traveling back and forth and using different gates each time, to avoid being seen or tracked.

Her ears pick up a recently familiar voice, one of Morgans evil little creatures that takes care of her private messages. The fae is a braggart, as if working for Morgan was something to brag about. He was also the ugliest thing Inari has ever laid eyes on and she had to fight an overwhelming temptation to squash him. The ugly little bastard is a wealth of information or I might be tempted. How can anyone work for that bitch?

She stills her thoughts and concentrates on what the demifae are telling one another. ...

'She says to tell your master not to give up on the witch's child yet. My mistress is planning on sneaking in to the tavern long after most are sleeping. She might have that child or a gargoyles child by morning.... We will be in touch....'

Inari holds her breath until the demifae is out of sight. Then she lets it out slowly, calming her racing heart. Ky has taken Gareth to show him the way to the boathouse. I need her here, if Morgan is using different gates the chances are slim as it is that we can anticipate which one she will use at any given moment. Gareth can go back to the tavern and warn them. Maybe they can take the babies somewhere else for safety...

Leaving the shelter of the large tree, Inari races for the boathouse, hoping to catch Ky and Gareth...
