I came a not a moment too soon

It's been a considerable time since I've been in London Below, but I've known of this child's family for a long, long time. It was a fine and noble Underside family, and with my assistance it should continue to be.

Ingress is a delight. She is a lovely girl, although her wounds are close to the surface. No child should go through what she's been forced to go through. But Mary is here for her now, and I think things will be set right for the little one soon enough.

The Lady Door is barely more than a child herself in many ways, but she has grown older before she should have. An old soul resides in that one. She needs my presence almost as much as Ingress.

The wizard I'll keep my eye on. He makes Door glow with happiness, and he feels more like friend than foe, but there is potential there. Hopefully he will be healed of his wounds as well, and this house will be a happy home.

I understand we will soon have company in the house, which is a good thing for both of the daughters of the House of Arch. The call for help was a strong and sudden one, but I arrived in time, I think.

Little Lady Ingress will be waking from her nap soon, and I promised I'd take her to a park I know. I think she'll like it very much. Hopefully Bert will be there and we can dance and sing until she smiles and claps with glee. Then perhaps we'll go feed some pigeons.
