*Satorius carries Trink through the streets towards the Brightshield house, not caring about the looks they get. He is stopped by a little boy, though...*
"Miss Trevain? Congrats on the marriage, Miss. You been missing a lot o chant while ya where gone."
*Satorius raises an eyebrow and whispers to Trink*
Do you know this boy...?

*She laughs at most of the looks, then looks at the little boy*
Yep, I do.
*Kisses him on the cheek and slides down from his arms to speak to the boy*
Thank you. Have I, now?
*She is suddenly holding a gold coin in one hand, and plays with it a bit*
Like what?

*He smiles and watches the two*
*The boy grins at the sight of the gold*
"Like the Athar, Miss. One o them plans to be talking in front o the new church.
I hear tell that they caught that dragon. Not sure if that's right, though.
Some fool made a crater in Veneficus and got ringed round by the guards. Ain't going to be pretty if he resists.
A new family is moving into Caleria! Jingzu himself bought up the home for them!"
*Satorius frowns at the first bit of information*

Athar? Who are those?
*She looks around and notices Satorius' frown*
Ah...
*She hands the boy the coin, but is instantly playing with another one*
What kind of family, what is their name? And would there be anything else I should know of?

And would there be anything else I should know of? *The boy's grin widens as he sees the chance for even more profit. The boy also seems to notice Sat's frown.* "Ah, ya seem to know them. The Athar are the God haters, Miss. They think the Gods are just really strong bloods and ain't none too shy telling everyone else their belief. They like converting people, see. What kind o family? Don't know, but the Chant says they are winged Elves, or glowin' Elves, or something like that. Says they got Celestial blood in them somewhere, so maybe they do have wings, who knows? Well, some kid has been setting things on fire at the Brightshield house. That, and there're two pretty Elven girls who are the bane o just about everything they come across." *Satorius chuckles* That reminds me of a few relatives, Trink.

*Laughs*
Thank you. Here you go, you're well worth it.
*She hands him the second coin and a chocolate cookie*
If you have anything else, you know where to bring it.
*Takes Satorius' hand*
Shall we continue?

"Tank ya kendly, Miss!" *The boy happily munches on the cookie as he walks off with his profits. Satorius chuckles and starts walking towards Mellinore's house again while holding Trink's hand.* You seem to have your own little information network already. You would make a wonderful Planeswalker, Trink. Oh, I was thinking of applying for a job as an instructor at Mel's school.

*Chuckles*
I just happened to come across the lad. He's very useful. Planeswalker?
*Laughs, then nods*
Sounds like a good idea. We don't need the money, but it sounds like fun, and I know they'd be thrilled to have you.

We don't need the money, but it sounds like fun, and I know they'd be thrilled to have you. He certainly seems so. A term of respect, in a sense. A Planeswalker is one who travels the Planes, often for knowledge or other such things. No matter what their goal, knowledge always ends up being a big part of things. *He smiles* Yes, I thought it would be interesting to teach. Of course, I have to keep clear of a few subjects, else I would scare them into never ever wanting to travel the Planes. Then again, that sounds fun too. *He grins as they reach the house*

(Leaving the house he set a brisk pace towards the Haye Centre on the edge of Caleria. As he turns into the park he hears a hail. Tuurning he sees four men in the tunics of City Guard walking towards him.)
"Good day sir. May we enquire who you are, where you reside, where you go and whether your arms are carried in accordance with the law?"
"My name is Endorion Brightshield. I am a visitor to your city, lodging with my father. My home is in Nan Elmoth.
I am going to visit an acquaintance for the purpose of discussing recent events of war in another land far from here, at which I was present.
You are free to inspect my armament if that is the law."
"Thank you sir."
(The guards verify that Endorion's sword is peace-bonded and that the mace is securely lashed to his belt.)
"Who are you visiting sir, and where does he reside? You did not say."
"I am sorry. His name is Merestil Haye. He owns and operates the Haye Centre.
"Oh yes sir, we know the person. And are you intending to use the weapons there?
"No."
"Then you will not mind if we accompany you sir?"
"If you insist, I will not stop you."
(He sets out, and the guard form up behind him as they proceed through the streets to the Haye Centre.)

*In a dark alley, Shanel stirs. She looks around, groggily...a groggyness which is quickly gone as she realizes where she is. Almost shouting in disbelief, she leaps up, pressing her back against the side of a building as if she is afraid that if she isn't touching it, it will vanish. She moves along it slowly, her emancipated frame moving with the silence of a cat. Her wide eyes seem to dart back and forth down and up the alley, and when she reaches the end, she quickly peers around the corner, down both ends of the street, terrified. Her breathing is rapid, and sweat runs down her brow.*
.oO (This do be impossible. It nae can be...)
*She looks around, more slowly now, as if drinking in her surroundings. She begins to laugh, almost hysterically, clutching her rail thin arms to her sunken stomach as she doubles over in peals of laugher. Through it, one word is heard repeated over and over again.*
Free! Free! Free!
