Welcome to Gaia! ::

Silvia couldn't exactly think of anything just yet since her mind wasn't completely clear yet. She got up, leaving her fan at her seat, and walked up to a small hidden cabinet. She opened it up to show that it had a few things that James had given to her long ago. She had thrown most of the things away, but very few things she couldn't bring herself to destroy. She didn't understand why, but she just stashed them away and hidden them away from anyone's view. She sighed and closed it again and went back for her fan.

Silvia was deep in thought until she heard a knock on her door, making her jump in her spot. She went to the door and opened it just to find no one was there. She raised an eyebrow until she saw a yellow envelope at her feet. She picked it up and closed the door once she was back inside. She opened it and read the contents of the letter. She raised an eyebrow when she sat down and finished reading it. 'A game, eh? This killer must want to make this whole case a game,' she thought. She looked toward her hidden cabinet then back at the letter. 'Wonder if James got a similar letter.'

Silvia looked at her clock and then closed her eyes to put the clues together. 'Hmm...if he says to be ready for the jungle of people and also a party...this is either an invitation or they are talking about a busy place here in London,' she thought, tapping the tip of her fan on her lip. She opened her eyes as fast as she stood up. "That's it! The main street!" she said to herself and grabbed a warm cloak as well a bonnet for the sun. She kept her fan with her and ran out of the house, knowing she only had less than half an hour left to get there. She started to think that if James had the same letter, then he might have figured out where to go and figured she might find him there. On her way there, she realized that the crowd of people also meant that there were going to be lots of mysterious people at a special place.

Silvia was looking around the main street with so many people around. She was panting a bit from running since she was never good at sports unlike James. "You'll have to think faster and figure out what happens next, Detective Lonergon." she looked around to figure out who said that to her. She didn't see anyone who looked like they were trying to grab her attention or call hear the voice once again, but she kept going. 'The hell are they thinking trying to make me confused,' she thought as she followed the voice. 'I have to figure out they're next move before it's too late.' She kept walking until her heels were hurting because of her shoes. She walked to an empty alley that no one seemed to care about. She saw a piece of paper that was on the ground and really clean. She picked it up to find that her name was on it. She turned it over to see that it really was an invitation to a party. "Ha! I knew that it was an invitation for a party," she said to herself in self satisfaction. She walked out of the alley and walked back home, trying to figure out why she was anonymously invited to this masquerade party.



Silvia had gotten ready for the masquerade ball she was invited to, hoping that there were more clues there and if it really was related to the case she was given. She had dressed into a nice light blue gown that made her look like and angel, including some white wings. She let her hair down in curls that were somewhat straight and a white mask with a hint of light blue decorations on it that covered her eyes. She got into a carriage that drove her over to the location of the party, not forgetting her invitation.

Silvia had arrived at the party and went inside to be part of the party. She looked around and hoped she didn't stick out as much as others did with her clothes. The letter had told her to first socialize as much as she could before the grand finale. She had no trouble with that since her job practically required her to do so. She looked around and knew that she was being checked out because of her costume, and felt embarrassed. She knew she shouldn't have used the wings. Costumes made her feel less confident about herself and made her close everything off. She felt much better when she didn't have to dress up so much. 'I hope this is all worth it and I get more clues here before I panic,' she thought, smiling to a few people to hide her nervousness.

Silvia felt strange int her outfit and blushed even more when others asked her to dance or complimented her dress. She thanked them and walked on to try to socialize with others. Out of the corner of her eye, she say a man who seemed to be well dressed in dark colors yet stuck out from how his clothes actually complimented his features. He seemed to be walking to her and she wondered if she should talk to him or not. 'But then again, I'll need to know as many people as possible to know if any of them have a clue that would help with the case.' She stayed in her place and fiddled with her hair, waiting for the man to get closer, not having any idea that the man was actually James!

Silvia turned to the man and smiled to him, curtsying a bit to him in response. "I would love to," she said. She had already had some idea of who the people at the party were, but she only considered them as suspects. She saw him as a suspect too, but felt like something about him seemed different from everyone else. She had refused other requests for a dance, but saw that if she refused this one, she would lose a chance to get a missing clue to the whole puzzle. Also that he seemed a bit suspicious to her since he seemed a bit familiar as well even though she couldn't exactly point it out.
