They call them the shadow men.

I think it's just more tripping over each other's lines. She's trying to introduce themselves, he's going straight to the subject.

Watch Robot remotely activate the body Kat grew once they threaten Shadow even in the slightest.

Idk, Eglamore and her robo pal don't seem hostile, but they also definitely want Kat to know who's got all the cards in this convo, so I'm still a bit worried.

Maybe Annie had the foresight to tell Kat that if anyone were to ask after Shadow, they were to speak to Jones.

I'm already assuming that the Court elite know, no way could that info only be known to just two of their Security agents and not a single other person.

Jones was not joking when she said that the Court tracks people through their food, right?

I'm sure it's just a line-item on their bi-annual report or whatever though. Until whatever it is costs money or endangers national security or whatever they probably don't get involved.

Guessing Annie must have eventually just forgot about that, since knowing that makes it pretty obvious the Court would immediately know poo poo like them hanging out down by the river.

Rand Brittain: Mar 25, 2013; "Go on until you're stopped."

There are probably a lot of things the Court doesn't notice just because it doesn't pay attention to everything. Even big spy agencies miss stuff all the time, just because they have access to more data than they could ever actually examine personally.

Mind you, Annie and friends probably underestimate how much of a priority Kat is to the Court.

Annie is likely a pretty high priority too, considering she's an envoy of the enemy.

The Court and The Forest aren't really enemies. They're just...not really friends. Think belligerent neighbours. The Court is that stuffy one that complains that his neighbour's dog got out and took a dump on his lawn.

in this analogy coyote is both the dog and the owner of the dog

and he's also the lawn

Now I'm picturing the Headmaster and Ysengrin starting their mornings by walking out to their ends of the bridge and flipping each other off.

Although the Court probably doesn't want to interfere too much with what the Forest Medium does, in case it causes complications.

Not from her dad.

She has her own basement, which she moved into because of her dad.

Her dad seemed to think so.

its quite ominous how they say they've kept it secret from the rest of the "shadow men" specifically, and not, say, the court.
