"Daine, are you sure? We can still go back if you don't want to."

A young woman with smoky brown curls and blue gray eyes looked towards the tall mage and sighed.

"Yes, I am sure. I want to make sure when I leave again it will be on my terms not for the fear of my life" Daine replied.

"If you are sure then" Numair replied.

The King of Tortall gave them both leave to travel to Galla and settle anything that Daine felt was nessacerry to her past. So the strongest mages in Tortall left Cours within a week among well wishers.

Infront of the two stretched the town of Snowsdale. The last time Daine had been here she wasn't on the best terms to put it lightly. She was part of the Snowsdale wolf pack who worked with her to rid the town of bandits that had murdered her mother. The town folk were convinced that she was possesed and had attempted to kill her. No negative thoughts! You can do this. Just do it for Mama, she deserves to have her body given the proper rites by her daughter, giving herself the courage needed she lightly kneed her horse Cloud into movement.

Sighing behind her, Numair also set his horse into a light trot.

Entering the town they were shocked with all the movement of preperation of something spectacular. Puzzling over the actions of the towns people they moved towards the closest inn.

"Good afternoon! May I be of assistance to you?" said the woman behind the counter.

"Yes my companion and I would like two rooms" said Numair stepping up.

"No problem, we are basically empty because of the Beltane celebrations that will be taking place in two night" informed the woman.

This shocked Daine, she had forgoten the date, glancing at Numair she noticed that he too had been shocked.

Well I guess we will have to stay longer than expected, thought Daine.
