Harley appears in the palace.

The Director of Media is startled! So is Shell Bell, but less so. "Hi, Harley. How are you doing?"

"It looks like you can get around on your own now. Assuming you meant to wind up here." She shoos the Director of Media. "Go. Talk to Jane, she'll tell you what's going on." The Director of Media skedaddles.

"Yeah," says Harley. "I'm going everywhere. Just to see."

Shell Bell pets Neptune. "It's nice to be able to go wherever you want to be - I like my aura power, it sounds like freecasting might be even better. Is your wolf awake yet?"

"Yeah. I trust my aura, basically, but I don't like being away from my Sherlock so I just leave Tune home when I go and she doesn't."

"You could do the same thing. Separating's not fun, though. If you don't have a trick to do it all at once like Cam or Aianon - or maybe even if you do - you should leave someone you love holding your daemon for you, it helps."

"Thanks," he says, and thinks about it a little more.

Shell Bell pets Neptune some more. "It time-syncs too."

"Hello again. You seem to have the hang of this."

"Everybody keeps saying that," says Harley, with a wry smile. "I want a daemon."

"All right. That just involves going to Alethia; you can go yourself or Jane could take you. If you want me to come along I need to spend a star; do you?"

"Shell Bell says when you separate it's good to have someone you love to snuggle your daemon. I think I'm gonna do it fast, like Sue. Don't know if I'll have to do it from there or not."

"I don't know either. I'll come along if you'd rather it be me than Zeus."

"If he was going to do it he should be awake," says Harley. "But I don't want him awake until I've done it."

Elspeth nods. She pulls out a star. "Right now?"

Harley nods too.

"Jane, please let Amariah know."

[She says you can pop in if you want.]

"All right." Elspeth spends the star. She taps her Janegem.

Here is Amariah's basement.
