Johanna had remained seated even with the mysterious woman, appearing behind another woman she had not met, technically, the tallest of the women present that is. She turned her head to gaze upon the newcomer with a contemplative look, curious as to her offer to cover the case of the missing men.
However, Johanna managed a ghost of a smile upon her lips, excited to see another woman step up to the plate. In this day and age, Johanna found societal norms to be rather barbaric. A woman's place is in the house, in the kitchen, making children. The thought alone disgusted her, as Johanna was living proof of a successful, independent woman in Prague, of all places. With her father's understanding, and devoted care to his only daughter, Johanna became determined more than ever to make a name for herself, to create a legacy.
"Well, Monseiur Adam, if there is nothing else you need from us, I would much rather like to depart, and begin making arrangements and other preparations I'll need to make." Turning her attention back to the head of the house, her brows rose in wonderment, as if to say 'Well is there?'
She glanced around at the other members seated, three women, and two men had been called together to take on these cases. Perhaps, Johanna could be useful after all. Her Talent, may prove to be of use, if she could concoct a hallucinatory sleeping draught to induce a writing spell. Then again, she would need the use of someone to assist her in case her self-made draught turned bad. She could even ask one of the servants to help her if the need arose as well.
More so, the one thought that captivated her mind, how would she get out to these woods and go out there? Johanna would enlist one of the many carriages surely, and before anything, she would need a map of the forests, and of the case files, with the details providing the location of the victims.
