.001 // a strange and unknown place

[archivy]

Interesting. So this place is called the City? I didn't have any information about the existence of it available before today. This is troublesome. And I believe it is past my bedtime.

Kincaid? Where are you? I paid until August.

I-i'm scared.

Ivy?

...

Ivy!

[archivy]

Harry?

[dresden4hire]

Ivy where are you? I'll come get you. And I swear, this is not my fault.

[Written down on a pad of paper at home.]

Nicodemus is here.

[archivy]

I know that this is not your fault. You don't have the ability to make this happen.

I'm near the merry-go-round. I'd appreciate you coming.

Kincaid isn't here, is he?

[ private, snagged the codes from her memory ]

I know. I've come to remember the things he's written while being here.
I'm scared, Harry. He scares me!

[theotokos]

Friend of Harry's?

[archivy]

We're acquainted. He let me pet his kitty!

[tinyvampiregod]

Scandalous.

[archivy]

What makes you say that?

[akaladybasene]

Yet another friend of Harry's arrives?

[archivy]

Yes. I'm an acquaintance of Harry's.

[akaladybasene]

He seems to have so many of those arriving lately.

[archivy]

I'm aware of that.

[crete_goddess]

Oh, my--

Harry is coming for you, yes? No need to be frightened, darling, truly. He's quite the protector, after all.

[archivy]

Yes, he is coming to pick me up. I believe that means I will stay with you. And I know that Harry does his best to protect those he cares for.

He said I could get my own kitty!

[crete_goddess]

Oh--yes, of course it does. I'm readying your room as we speak.

Yes, he certainly does..

Oho, of course you can! I can take you after you settle in, dear--and you can meet our cat, Katrina.

[archivy]

That is very kind, thank you.

I would very much enjoy meeting Katrina, Miss Ariadne.

This place is called the City. Welcome, my name is Reki.
It's natural to feel scared, but there are many kind people here, so it will be okay. Was Kincaid looking after you?

[archivy]

I am aware of that, thank you. I'm the Archive. It's nice to meet you, Miss Reki.

Kincaid in my employ and acting as my bodyguard, babysitter and driver.

[blacktipped]

You are welcome. It's very nice to meet you as well.

Have you found him or someone else you know yet?

[archivy]

Kincaid isn't here, but Harry Dresden is. I will stay with him until Kincaid arrives or I can find someone to replace him.
