The flurry of the next morning - other than doing their best to avoid Mr Collins, who was being remarkably un-subtle in his hints toward matrimony - was spent setting Mary's room up to scry again.

The Militia encampment would not have the shielding that Netherfield did, and as Lydia had already planned to walk into Meryton, Mary had tasked her with stirring up some conversation with the officers, to try and get a clearer idea of who the troublemaker was.

Jane looked at the middle sister with concern as Kitty finished drawing the sigils "Are you certain you do not wish one of us to remain with you, Mary? This is no small undertaking that you propose."

Mary shook her head, "Some time to myself as I wait for you to reach Meryton shall restore me, I am sure. You know how excessive company fatigues me."

There was more of Papa than Mama in Mary, at least in that respect. Where the Bennet Family might rise late after an Assembly, Mary would spend the day entire in her room, unless necessity or familiar callers drew her out of it. Kitty handed her a small, flat stone, carved with runes. "Keep this on you. If you suffer any adverse effects, whether from fatigue or from the object of our search having psychic protection, this will alert us, and we will return as swiftly as we can."

Mary smiled, and hugged her briefly. "Well, you had better start walking, if you wish to avoid Mr Collins inviting himself with you."
