Tamrissa grins as Jihon is reunited with his father.

"Well met."

She listens as they throw words back and forth, glancing at Jihon as his father tells about Lisette. With a small curtsy, she smiles.

"I must arrange some things," she says without explanation. "Some day I hope to meet all of your family, Jihon, and perhaps sit down and exchange stories."

Her smile goes back to his father, then she turns and walks away.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Above ground, she steps into the dining chamber. With a sigh at not seeing Clutchfiend, she decides to bother some of the others with finding the marine. Her mind reaches out and two spirits immediately drop from the ceiling, the same pale figures that are constantly attending her.

"Search the rooms. Any Space Marine you find," she smirks. "Wake them up and drag them down here."

As they give their silent giggles and fly towards the ceiling once more, she crosses her arms and waits. Without saying a word, she has given them permission to wake the marines up in an abrupt manner...

Tamrissa lowers her eyes from the ceiling to the floor, hearing a small sound from somewhere near the large doors leading into the chamber. She sees Chris.

"Pardon me, sir," she speaks loudly enough to make the room echo slightly. "Young man!"

She paces slowly towards him, wary as she approaches the sleeping form.

"Young man, are you not part of the Space Marines?"

Her eyes narrow and she prods him a bit with the toe of her boot.

"Hello there. Wake up."

"I asked if you were a Space Marine, but I have a good memory so it does not need answered," Tamrissa follows him with her eyes. "I need to know where your Commander is...where Cameron is."

She glances towards the stairs, then back.

"Is he asleep? Or is he out for a walk somewhere? It is very important I find him soon."

Tamrissa frowns and lets out a frustrated sigh, then shakes her head.

"Look. If they banished you for a reason you do not understand, then you need to argue your case to them. Space Marines seem quite set in their ways, but everything changes," she closes her eyes. "But nothing will change until you try to change it. So there is your first lesson. Sulking will do no good. Only action and well-spoken words."

She opens her eyes.

"You are sure you cannot help me then?" she breathes. "You have no idea if he is here or gone?"

"Through a portal?!" Tamrissa drops her hands to her sides, palms turned up. "His duty is here! He made the judgement, he must carry it out!"

She huffs out another breath and rolls her eyes.

"This a mess...a complete mess."
