Lysia heads upstairs, knocking before she enters the sickbay.

"Not interrupting anything I hope."  She says with a smile and a wink.

"I had a thought," she makes a bit of a sour face and nods, "I know I know, 
I should probably lay down before I pass out.  But it occurred to me that 
we're looking for a little girl right, and who better to talk to about the 
new girl in town than the other kids."

"Think of it like a fishing trip and I think I might have just the bait we 
need to attract a flock of chatty children.  Now I'm not saying we should 
ignore other avenues of investigation but kids talk, they're chatty and 
friendly and they like to see new things and I figured that Ukanav is about 
the newest thing to show up around here.  I doubt any of these Hootish kids 
have ever seen a Vargr, and a Vargr on a motorcycle having a picnic lunch 
with a pretty lady is going to draw a lot of inquisitive little eyes."

Lysia grins a little, "What do you think, think we can find out where the 
girl is by talking to the Hootish kids?"
