Using the information provided by Desmond, Ryan's assistant Julia, Clio, Leighton, and Connor transported to Sadie's plane of existence, and found it to be rather ethereal. And hot. However, Clio's more immediate concern was controlling Julia and Connor's transcendental sickness. Upon their arrival both Julia and Connor started puking and fell to the ground, discombobulated.

"It never ceases to amaze me how you Humans think you can play in our world. You should have left this particular jaunt to the Fae on your staff." Clio commented.

"And miss the joy of that fantastic ride?" Julia replied as she choked through her vomit-heaving.

Clio went to her knees next to Julia, grabbed her head and blew into her ear as Julia's eyes started to focus and her head stopped spinning which made the nausea stop. Clio went to Connor next and did the same which allowed Connor to regain control of himself. Once done, she stood up and took a look around as they all collected themselves. Julia came up and stood next to Clio as they looked around. The air was hot and cloudy. In the short view, they could see about fifteen feet in front of them but not much more than that. They could make out some type of horizon but only from a very long distance.

"This looks all weird. Not what I expected." Julia commented

"What did you expect?" Clio replied.

"I don't know, another dimensional perhaps. Something similar to ours, maybe." Julia said.

"Sadie is an Afreet, another Elemental Fae whose power is that of fire. The humanoid form she uses to traverse our world is not her natural one. That is why this place is so infernally hot. Her actual form is similar to that of Leighton's. In any event, we won't be here for long. None of your forms will be able to take much of this heat for too long" Clio replied.

"Amen to that." Connor said.

"How do you plan to navigate through this?" Julia asked.

"I don't. I am counting on Desmond's contact with Sadie will solve us having to navigate to her, but rather her to us." Clio replied.

"And that he did," came a voice out of the hot cloud around them.

"Sadie?" Clio asked.

"Yes." Sadie replied.

"Hi! My name is Clio! The people with me are Julia, Leighton and Connor. They are investigators like me."

"But not all Fae I take it?" Sadie asked.

"No they are not. But we are all here on the same business." Clio replied.

"And that is? Desmond did not elaborate. Said only that you wished to meet on something."

"Yes. May I make a request first?" Clio asked.

"And that is?"

"Can you appear before us in your…" Clio began

"Humanoid form?" Sadie finished.

"Yes, please. Besides, Connor here is an absolute fan of yours."

"Oh really?"

As the hot air around them began to swirl and a humanoid form started to form in front of them. When she was done, Connor let loose a broad grin.

"Well, I can feel his adoration from here." Sadie said.

"You have no idea." Connor replied.

"Well, let's keep the adoration feelings to a minimum, shall we?" Julia said

"Can't I have just a taste?" Sadie asked.

"Unfortunately, we need him un-adorized, if that is even a word." Julia replied.

"That is unfortunate. I would have been great." Sadie said. Connor started to feel the effect of her powers, the heat only adding to the effect.

"Sadie, can we focus?" Clio asked.

"Very well. What is it that you need?"

"Information." Clio replied.

"What kind of information?"

"Plane-jumping movement information." Clio replied.

"Since when did I become Peggy the Travel Agent?" Sadie asked.

"I am sure you know what I mean." Clio replied.

"What information are you looking for?"

"About a couple weeks ago, Engelram was brutally murdered." Julia replied.

"I heard."

"We think it is as a result of a deal gone sour. We are looking for a relic that I was hired to recover for him as a result of that deal, but an Under Fae got to it first. When I confronted this Under Fae he disappeared in a plane jump right before my eyes. Then when Dyson, Erik and I went to the Warehouse to confer with Engelram about it we happen to find him in his death throes, and the attacker seemed to have also disappeared in an apparent plane jump. We know this may be a long shot, but we are trying to see if our frequent plane jumpers may have noticed any similar activity that correlate to the dates of these events." Julia explained.

"I don't what help I can provide. I was banished from traveling on your plane by Lachlan some years ago."

"But not from others." Clio replied.

"What's in it for me?"

"Depending on what information you can provide." Clio replied.

"I want the banishment lifted." Sadie said.

"I am sure that can be managed if the information you provide leads to a hard target, and quickly." Julia replied.

"Fair enough." Sadie thought for a moment. "What kind of Under Fae did you encounter?" Sadie asked Julia.

"A failed Selkie. Pretty slimy-looking one at that. His face was all molted." Julia replied.

"Hm. That will narrow it down nicely."

"Think you may have a lead?" Julia asked.

"Maybe. I just have to find my contact to that lead." Sadie replied.

"Fair enough." Julia replied.

"I will contact Desmond once I have something."

"And I will let the Ash know of your terms. Thank you, Sadie." Julia replied.
