By the Pricking of my Thumb
1.(This is backdated to the claim between the 5th and the 12th) for anyone who still wants to play anything out) Mab's footsteps echoed through the evening air in Lewisham, her eyes scanning for any signs of trouble. For the most part there had been little resistance. Many of the creatures here were already just scraping by to survive, though she'd had a few run in's that had been … trying. Heiji had made a convenient list of possible problems and timelines for the commerce and traffic flows, as well as criminals and such. She was currently on her way toward one of these. A small gang of outcast fae who could cause problems for her.
2. There is a large gate open in Lewisham on the outskirts of Forest Hills. Mab enlisted another fae to put a 'don't look here' spell on the entrance to keep regular humans from just wandering in but those who had been involved in the territory claim earlier that month both fae and non-fae could easily pass between the two trees marked with what seemed to be a snowflake symbol glistening on the trunks. If a few humans made it in they'd probably survive. On the Other Side, stepping just out of the trees there is a small hill on which stands a manor that glistens in the evening sunlight, and even while it's still light, the colors of the aurora borealis drift across the frozen surface of the building. A short walk up the hill will bring you to a door that doesn't <i>appear</i> to be guarded though if anyone comes armed for bear, a yeti will show up to take care of the issue. The door is merely an opening in the side of the manor and inside reveals a large entry hall and double staircases that wind up to a second floor balcony with doors and hallways. Off to the right is the ballroom and the sound of a small ensemble rings out through the door and flashes of cool colors add to the festive feel as the glow of the house continues inside.
To the left is a sitting room with drinks and finger foods and walking through the sitting room will bring you to a formal dining room which has full meals available if need be. Servants move all along the bottom floor between the rooms with drinks and hors d'oeuvres.

3. Anything I've missed

And while Clara isn't much of a gambler, she likes to think she's learning more and more about the world by the day since she's found her new leash on (un)life.
Now to get back to topic and report what she's found. She's covered the vampires, the werewolves, the Courts... Oh!
"The Circles. Well, in terms of the witches themselves..." She tilts her head, trying to find a way to word her findings in an interesting and still useful way. "They seem to not be doing much for this month.
"Daybreak is focusing more on a festival coming up on September or something and are mostly converse in Wandsworth since it's closest to the Night Council territories, to collaborate I suppose, and near Richmond after the... incident. I suppose they feel angry something like that happened under their noises." Daybreak has become quite lax, truth be told. Back when she was still new to being a spirit, she couldn't help but feel there were more witches wandering around. Times sure have changed. "Midnight is the same? They've been quiet. I have noticed the sudden number of witches now making their homes at Enfield these days since an official coven came out for them."

It was interesting though. She had honestly expected a little more pushback from the witches when they'd started staking claims. The Midnight witches had every reason to allow the fae to start moving but she'd expected a little more... something, from Daybreak.
"I wonder if they are planning for something else as well." She murmured. "Witches do tend toward secrecy." Like she should talk. It was good though, that the midnight witches weren't being thrown out on their ear. Mab preferred balance and after some encroachment by fae the whole of London felt a little more balanced though perhaps the metahumans should have some more space of their own. Fortunately for them, Redbright was friendly to both the young and the old.
She dipped her head a little. "It's true that I expected something more from Daybreak."
