*is here, in that quiet, out-of-the-way manner of his, and he looks a bit uncertain, taking a moment to speak* H-hello.

*nods* Just the person I hoped to meet. I have a bit of an offer for you. An assignment, shall we say, the successful proceeding of which will lead to a reward for you. *produces a plain, long, blank box from a coat pocket, and leaves it closed for the moment*

*smiles a little, very faintly* An-- an assignment, Mrs. Hades? I would be happy to-- to help you. Mother says I'm to be very polite to other ladies.

Oh, that is most wonderful. You see, two of my children, Cocytus and Lethe, have been less than satisfactory as of late, and I would like to teach them a sort of lesson. Your part will be seemingly menial, but all-important in the grand scheme. I want you to bring both them here, seperately, sometime very soon. I don't care how you do it - tell them someone has been murdered, someone is hurt, a new type of mold has gone out of control and is threatening to consume the mansion. I do not care, so long as you get them here. Now, they are smarter than they occasionally seem, and will perhaps figure out that all is not well. You may apply some force if necessary, though no more. It is preferable to have them in good condition, to start.

*opens the case, revealing two twin knives, gleaming and sharp* These shall be your reward. What do you say?
