The garden is calm, tiny little spiders work on their part of the webbing surrounding this spot of the umbra. A huge spider sits within the great funnel awaiting its prey to happen by.


The markings are clear to those of like minds, the huge spider moves further out on his web. 'Welcome. What brings you to my garden?' the language only recognizable to the eight legged monsters,


Eyes-in-the-Dark nods as hearing that language pretty much clarifies her suspicion if the markings themselves hadn't. "I heard one of my aspect was oft found here," she responds in kind. "I am Eyes-in-the-Dark my Tenere brother," she adds as she stops approaching the web about five body lengths away from it.


Eiji's front two legs rub together briefly, 'Have you been to the colony?' He moves to fix a spot in the web, the work is never done. Create, repair, repair.


Eyes-in-the-Dark's check pedipalps mirror the motion of her fellow Tenere. "I have," she replies and watches him begin her repairs. "I have been scouting out the city, predominantly on the other side of The Web, making contacts among the Ovid," she explains and then asks, "Have you done anything like that yourself?"


Eiji speaks while he works, 'I have concentrated on anchoring my place among the Ovid. Bringing in Kin to help maintain the area we call home. I have yet to have time to make contacts outside our kind. Currently I am looking to create Fylfot.'


Eyes-in-the-Dark touches the torc at her neck at the mention of Fylfots and nods to Eiji. "I have forged a contract with a Ratkin, have begun establishing ties with a group of Garou, met a Corax," and on that one she pauses for a moment to let it sink in, "And I've even discovered that faeries still exist in the world." She asks, "Did you know about that?" referencing the last fact stated and also asks, "What, if anything, can you suggest as ways to help out the colony you and Roy have set up?"


Eiji replies as he settles back into place. Still as the stone surrounding them, 'Ray has told me of the Garou, as well as Vampire Ovid. Details of their existence has not fit into the schedule just yet. Soon though. It is next in the grand scheme of things. The others I have not heard aout until now. Myself, I have met a weaver spirit among man. A drone.'


"I too have met that drone," Eyes-in-the-Dark says, "She mentioned having met you as well. Vampires I have not met, but the Great Mother's lessons are well remembered so I keep an eye out for them when out at night." She looks around at the webs and garden and


The motionless, Eiji, replies, 'I have chosen this foraging place as my anchor to the world of man. Ovid return regularly to fulfill their needs, while fulfilling the needs of others in the process. My own included.'


"Most who come here aren't Ovid, my dear Viskr," Eyes-in-the-Dark says knowingly and follows up with, "You were aware of this, correct?" she asks to clarify. "I, myself, have yet to find a place to spin my own web," she adds with an implied but unvoiced question of 'is this really the location of your sylie?' that can easily be read into her words and gestures.


Eiji understands, 'It took me some time to decide where. Eventually though, a home was the logical step to begin with. This was not my first home. I tried a few other spots around the city, though none of those fulfilled all of my needs. Here does.'
