((Old BA, The Court.))
"Yes, the dead one." That was an interesting name for a construct and a light chuckle escaped his lips proved it. "Let us be off, it shouldn't take long to arrive.

Percy was the one that would bring the horse to the boat for inspection. As he was a messenger he was the one of the more familiar types for the horse in question. The breed was pure and the back strong. It's head was small like many spanish breeds, but it had a thick coat of dark brown nearly black fur.
Giving a slight cough as he waited he spoke up, "It's a Friesian."

The men were confused, Fay had not alerted them yet as she had thought Quin would take some time in delivering a horse he said was so far away. But even the soldiers and saliors didn't want to appear confused in front of another species, and instead accepted it with thanks.
"A 'Reeshan' for you," a member tried to explain to Fay, as the horse was presented to her on board "it appears unenchanted and strong. May we be allowed to store it off the boat until room can be made?"
Fay didn't want to, but seeing no other way authorized a small party to venture off and locate a suitable stable.

Percy bowed his head and said that it would remained stabled where it had been before and would be brought back when they were ready to depart. He would also make arrangements so that propper food would be aviable for the horse. Percy hoped they would treat him(the horse) with care.

They respected the horse more than they would a mortal, but not as much as a Faye. Everything was provided for it before, which was hard as Fay's paranioa over their prescence outside the ship caused considerabe distress. But there was some good news for her.... the KO salied in alongside her ship. It was excellent timing, and she knew that a good supply of magic had to have been used to support the timing. "Bring the TR to me."

Hastily the goat bounded onto the Faye vessel and watched as the men scurried about it. Right before it was ed into Fay's cabin it transformed itself into an androgynous youth, covered in animal skin, with short, ear-length hair.
"Clootie, present for trade meets, and in good health," it said in a stilted, accent-heavy voice. It had never bothered to learn any language until it ran to the youkai islands, then after that it had picked up fragments of english and hindi.

There was no formal message, just a trickle of rumours that a new boat had arrived. Making his way as quickly as he could with out possibly being seen as though he was in a hurry he made his way down to where the two ships had made port.
Hailing them he waited, he had sent a messenger to retrieve Ultima; but it seemed as though there would be trouble finding the man.

The servant in question, Fortune, had found Ultima strolling along the roads in an absent minded trot. Now he followed that servant along the paths of the Kusakabe way. He had never been to this area before, he hadn't the time with all the labor that needed to be done by him and his men.
Working in the fields and caves left little time for Ultima to take time for himself. Everything was still just getting started, he figured he wouldn't have much time to himself for another month at the very least.
He spotted Quin now, but made no hurry. Leisurely he strolled till he found himself standing next to Quin.

"So I see. You're noted."
Most of the youkai were like that, and Fay had expected the accent. True, she had never been in the same room with the youkai's TR before, but it didn't mean that her men didn't tell her enough. Here it was, born from mortal minds.
She motioned to a basket "There's food in there, if you need it. The humans will be coming soon I expect."

"I can smell them, I can smell them everywhere, they give headache." it pointed to it's head, and turned it back and forth "Like from before, it's like."
"Yes" to the comment about the food or the fact that the humans were going to be arriving wasn't clear, but in any event the Clootie moved to where the meal was laid out and picked over it.
In it's own mind it thought itself shrewed to complain about a younger race to a Faye, and to accept the food. No doubt it appeared otherwise, yet as it was eating it was mentally going over everything it was allowed to sell.

Turning to the man he nodded, "Good to see you here Ultima. It's been a while, trust everything has been okay with you."
Damn the Faye, they kept him waiting; always an arrogant race. Such bastards; but damn they wouldn't be half as interesting if they weren't.
"We're meeting with the Clootie which is the person in charge of trade for the Youkai. You're job is to provide details when I can't provide them. Oh, and after wards you can talk with Fay over your flower."

The Faye guards were standing by the ships as they had done day after day, for the long shifts they took. Fay herself was onboard waiting for some word that they were ready to approach, when the thought occured to her that this time he might expect her to come ashore. He could forget that, she hadn't been invited otherwise so on the ship they would stay.

In true Quin fashion his thoughts ran along the lines of ******** this. And with that he came aboard the ship and brushed past the sentries. Giving a soft brooding smile as went deeper upon the ship, Ultima in tow.
Seeing Fay the brooding look left his face, "Fay, I have heard the trickle of rumours that the Clootie was here. And I have brought along Ultima should he be needed."

The guards were offended that he didn't announce himself, but they did recognize him and just pushed this aside as yet another example of mortal brutishness.
Fay raised an eyebrow, annoyed at the wording "Rumors? Are your spies all taking their furlough then? And yes Quin," she pointed to the creature hovering over the food "that is the Clootie."

When asked how things were he simply nodded. New people tended to bring out the shy part of Ultima but he wasn't gonna let that happen today. He told himself to relax and his brain immediately refocused its attention on his stomach.
"I'll be happy to fill in the little gray areas.. wait.. What about my flower?" Knowing it was getting talked about the flower actually started swaying a little, dancing even.
