As soon as Wish sees Erik emerge from the front door, she vaults from Keon's arms and drops to her knees. Pike is by her side in less than a blink.

"Ye called us by name, Viking Lord. We are here. I need to see Our Lady. Time, My Lord... Waste not what little there is."

The Wyldfae reaches into her wild hair and plucks out Mouse. It sits before her a moment and then bows deep to Erik.

Keon steps close. "They need you to vouch for them before Mortuis' people will let them inside."

Erik stares around at the assembled elementals. "Good gods... in the name of the Aesir, let them pass."

The door to the Manse opens as if on its own. Silk silently glides onto the porch. The dark silks of her tunic and skirt flutter in the breeze that touches only her.

"By all means, bring them inside. We need all the help we can get."

Keon leans close to Erik. "When we are inside and you know what is needed for Star, speak their true names and say I wish. Then wish, wish with all your heart." He watches as the two Wyldfae follow Silk inside. "Ye need not say their names aloud, speak it beneath your breath. They will feel the magick of their names." He claps a hand to Erik's shoulder. "Few know the truth of them, Ye and Star are their chosen Lord and Lady. For ye... they would give their lives."
