Kendra

Recognising both the woman's distress and her grandmother's name, Kendra realises they're going to have to bite the bullet and invite her in if they didn't want her to run for the hills. While she didn't feel comfortable letting this stranger into the apartment, she also knew if this woman was in genuine trouble and she didn't help her, she'd never be able to forgive herself.

"Alright," Kendra says, surpressing a sigh as she holds the door open to let Lian in. She gestures down the hallway. "Living room is at the end of corridor." Before she closes the door behind Lian, she takes a moment to check that there is no one else lurking around.

@Penny Would Kendra ever had met Madam Chang personally?

@Penny What Faction would Madam Chang be? I'd assume Mortality but I might be wrong.

Gonna try and Put a Face to the Name.

Kendra

There is a long pause as Kendra's still half-asleep brain tries to process what she just heard. "Your... grandmother?" they eventually respond as they start going through a mental list of every old lady they've ever encountered... which, given they work at a coffee shop, is not a short list. Memories of some pleasant elderly customers flash through their mind, followed by memories of far less pleasant customers. Screaming customers, shouting customers, 'I Would Like to Talk to your Manager' customers. Really, it was surprising how angry people could get over as something as simple a cup of coffee.

Realising there was no way she could tell which of these people could be this woman's grandmother just from speculation alone, Kendra decided a more direct approach. "Err, sorry, what is your name?" they say, hoping that at least might ring some kind of bell.

Kendra

When Kendra awakes, the first thing they do is bring their hand to the side of their face before waving it in the their line of sight, just to make sure they hadn't actually lost an eye. "Wow, okay," Kendra mutters flatly as she pushes herself out of bed. "Absolutely hated that." That's definitely one of the more graphic visions they've had in a while, and its very much rattled them. She can't deal with people at the best of times, so the thought of answering the door to (what they can only to assume to be) salespeople when she's still processing what she just experienced doesn't exactly excite her. However, as the knocking continues unhindered, they spare a glance towards the other side of the room, where Aliss' bed is. It's empty. This, combined with the general lack of noise outside her room, hint that Kendra's roommates are either out or otherwise indisposed. With a sigh, Kendra gets up.

They stumble over to their bedroom door, nearly tripping over a pile of discarded clothing they have on the floor on the way. She opens the door, looks from one end of the hallway to the other. One end leads to the living room and kitchen, the other to the front door. Kendra waits a couple of seconds, hoping that either someone else will answer the door or that the knocking will stop altogether. When neither of these things happen, they head towards the front door, running their hands through their hair as they walk so they don't look like a total mess when to whatever stranger is standing outside their door.

Kendra opens the door, tilting their head to the side and responding with a disinterested and incredibly tired sounding, "Yeah?"

@Penny Just want to clarify something: when you say "someone is knocking at your door" do you mean the door to Kendra's room specifically or the apartment door?

Dark Streets - Urban Shadows

@XxFellsingxX Yes, please roll for Kendra's fortellings

@Penny

Got a 10.

@Penny An Oracle of some note, Nora Barton, has passed away under mysterious circumstances. She kept a detailed journal of all of her visions, but after her death, the journal was reported missing. People are now speculating that she may have been bumped off because of one of her final visions.

Rolled a 9.

Also do you want me to roll for Kendra's Foretellings move?
