Ninuka!
High Priestess Ninuka of the House of Silk, Daughter of Haya.
That Ninuka. The one who had kindly accepted Sliucha's invitation way back when to join her fledgling enterprise at the Lotus Temple, and watched over the Hayan contingent that had come along. The one who Sliucha had granted the title of High Priestess, and set her as responsible for keeping the Hayans in check. The Temple of the Black Spider within the Temple of Sinful Delights, who worked on matters of alchemy, poisons, and herbalism for the sake of the greater Temple.
And most recently, of course, the Ninuka who'd had to deal with the influx of Hayans who'd survived the Mission Vale purge in Har'oloth.
Well, Sliucha kind of wanted to know how she'd been doing, and how the Hayans had been doing. Sliucha was pretty laissez-faire about the whole thing, content with leaving Ninuka and the others to do their own thing as long as they didn't... poison the water supply... or unleash a plague upon Moonstone... or any of that sort of thing. Which perhaps neutered the Hayans just a bit in terms of what they actually had to do, which... you know, fair. Fair, maybe they were bored out of their minds. But at the same time, the aspects of Haya were sort of... super... not nice. So it was a really hard balance to strike.
Sliucha supposed now was as good a time as any to try and talk with Ninuka about that thing. In the midst of all the reorganization and brainstorming on the Alithean side, why shouldn't the Temple structure as a whole also see that sort of scrutiny? Why not talk about the future of the Hayans here - ooooh, that sounded ominous. Sliucha didn't want to imply that she was going to kick them out or anything.
Maybe it was best not to set any expectations. So, consider it a social visit! Sliucha stopping by to see her chummy pal Ninuka.
Off to the Hayan wing! They had their own section of the Temple where they'd been allowed to set things up, away from the others. See if she couldn't find Ninuka! See how things had been! See if they needed anything!
