Case File 2017.03.19

Elena’s following of LaDragos’ odd directions lead her to the very doors of Wanderland. Greeted by Sterling he welcomed her just as warmly as the Warden before that’s passed not more than a half hour prior. The same as Rhea, as host he stated the rules for being within Wonderlands boundaries. The place was considered as Neutral Ground and ‘collateral’ would be required while within this realm. After reaffirming that her collateral the Sword Fidelacchius would only be held in trust unless she wagered it by her own lips— she found entrance into the curious casino. Lead to her room she settled in for just a moment before seeking out Rhea in the suite just across the hall. The reunion was a touch bittersweet as both realized that an item of importance was being held in a sense hostage until their departure while conducting their business within this area for Alex. Though it was definitely a welcome sight to see a friendly face after the prior moments of both their evenings currently.

Back in the Wildcard cells, Alex finds himself face-to-face with LaDragos— commenting on the recent win against the vampire, Calder. Apparently word had spread…but then again that was stated by Ed prior to his final match. The moment Alex zero’s in on the other man is about when that pent up rage at Ed’s death, the concern for Delilah and his own situation swirl to the forefront. Demanding answers to many questions…of only a few that LaDragos decides to address. Opening stating that his ‘issue’ with Alex is in fact personal and that he’s arranged to have Silver Hand as his second match. The show being put on at Alex’s expense is being put on, not for him as he’s expendable, but for his parents. That gave the young man pause as he realizes that LaDragos was referring to his original birth parents and not his adoptive ones— leading to more questions that the other man was not going to answer…it wouldn’t do Alex any good to know since LaDragos expected him to die by Silver Hand.
