Jaime Antunez was slightly concerned about meeting with the new Wotan. She had summoned him and he had brought a human without warning her. On the other hand Thomas Howell IV was antic.i.p.ating his meeting greatly. He could eat little girls for breakfast, figuratively speaking of course. He met Billionaires, heads of state, Kings and Queens all the time. Famous people were always ready to receive and cater to him. It could be quite amusing watching them fall all over themselves trying to win his favor and get something from Wotan International.Having never been to Clan Home himself, he was very impressed with the property. The seclusion, the security, the architecture, and design were top notch. "Tell me Jaime, how does one get a place here? I just saw a fabulous looking French chalet back there." Jaime Antunez gave him a glance without taking his eyes away from the winding drive. "This is Clan Home. It is separate from Wotan International. All homes and amenities are provided by the Clan Home organisation. It is an international community but the families involved have had a stake in Clan Home for decades. This is a purpose built community. You would have to be a member of the organisation to live here." Jaime knew simply saying you could never live here would be akin to lighting a fire in the human, who could not take no for an answer.
Thomas nodded. He could of course understand you had to be born to it. After a few minutes of silence, Jaime pointed out Guild Hall. "This is the Guild Hall Building. I would say it is the centre of Clan Home. This is also were CEO Olen Hamundarson lived and were the current Wotan family head is living." Driving past the incredible structure they swiftly arrived at a modernistic type bungalow. Sharp angles and lots of gla.s.s made the house very interesting. As opposed to the exterior, the interior was beautiful with all the wood floors, counter tops and an oaken circular staircase leading to a smaller upstairs. "Magnificent design!" Looking around Thomas could easily see no expense had been spared. "I know you came the last couple of years to see Hamundarson here. But is this where they put you up?" "Em, sometimes. The bedrooms are upstairs. We of course have maid service but we will have to decide on our own when and where to eat."

Thomas Howell IV looked around at the gleaming surfaces and because of the almost excessive gla.s.s windows could see a kidney shaped pool in the garden behind the house. "Tell me Jaime, are we sure this property is not owned by Wotan International? Also the treasure from that strange little country, I have received international inquiries about it from some royal and formerly royal houses. The provenance was clear? It belongs to the Wotan family and not the corporation?"
"Thomas, the Wotan family is very old and very wealthy. I am unsure of how many individual companies and corporations they actually own, in addition to their private wealth. Wotan International is the largest and most visible. But I can tell you the oldest law firm in the world is exclusive to the Wotan family alone. I believe you went to school with a James Holmes?"
"Hmm, oh you mean at prep-school? Yes I seem to recall." Jaime Antunez shook his head, shrugged his shoulders and went upstairs. Jaime was thinking Olen may have made a mistake appointing Howell as CEO. He knew his reasoning. You needed to be a bit of a cutthroat and ruthless in business. Kind of like a viking. But you could not use those same tendencies when you dealt with the current Cally Wotan and her things. She would eat him alive.
