there was a sharp knock on the door of the Hawke family's residents. puzzled Malcolm Hawke left the cozy room, that held the sick twins, to answer the door. the site that met him took a force of will to keep from laughing out was there neighbor and in his grasp was Malcolm's eldest daughter. trying hard not to laugh and with a straight face on. Malcolm was about to ask what the problem was. when his neighbor shouted at the top of his lungs "Malcolm this is the final straw. if i find your daughter causing chaos again i will report to the templers about it!" it took almost all of Malcolm's will to keep a straight face. when his daughter gave him her innocent i don't know what he's talking about look. "I'm sure it was an accident Arlon. but ill make sure it wont happen again and could you keep your voice down please the twins are still sick their fevers haven't broken yet." at those words Arlon looked a little bit sorry but he still had his rage so in a fierce whisper "i mean it Malcolm if i find her on my land one more time and its not to apologies there will be consequences." then roughly shoving Marrina into the door way he turned and went down the pathway to the road. Malcolm closed the door and slowly turned to his daughter trying to stay serious but he couldn't hide the humor in his eyes. "well?" "well what?" "what do you have to say for yourself young lady." "nothing." "really now? you going to tell me what you did or do i have to get your mother to wring it out of you?" "fine i set his animals free cuz i thought it would be funny to see if he could catch them." Maker her antic will be the down fall of her one of these days. "well tomorrow i want you to go and apologies to Arlon after your chores are done we clear." "crystal." she said in her board voice. then she stuck out her tongue and bounded up the stairs to her room. at that point Malcolm lost control. he couldn't stop laughing and when his wife came out of the twins room, with a curious look on his face, he simple stated "that girl is so much like me when i was her age."

that had been a week ago before she was taken. Marrina wondered if her family new she was gone and if they missed her. she could recall every detail of the day the slavers took her. she was outside in the back of the house doing laundry alone. she was alone because her mother and father had to rush the twins into town. their fevers had gotten worse and the only way to help them was to get to the town healer. before her father left he told her "remember i want you to go apologies to Arlon after chores understand." "yes father she replied. Marrina hadn't planned on going to Arlon's at all. if anything she thought the man could us some exercise. Marrina was folding dry laundry into a basket when they first approached. she had her back turned to them so she didn't see their slaver armor. she thought they were a normal group of people looking for her father no less. people were always seeking out her father for something so she had let her guard down. one of the slavers spoke to her. "hey little girl" he said "is there anyone home that we can talk to." "no if your looking for mother and father they are in town with the twins." thanks all we needed to know." next hing Marrina new was the slaver had picked her up from behind and clamped a foul smelling rag over her nose and mouth. she did what any ten year old would do. she bit, kicked, and screamed as loud as she could till everything went black.

Marrina awoke to the movement of being bounced up and down. she tried to open her eyes only to find darkness. they had blind folded her great. she heard the clop of hooves so she was either in a carriage or tied to the back of a horse. she tried to move to see if the ropes around her wrist would budge they did not. her movement however caught a slavers attention. he swore in some language she never heard before and then shouted "someone give her another douse she's waking up. Marrina heard someone approach her and the foul smelling rag was placed over her nose and mouth. darkness claimed her again once again.

Malcolm had been full of worry after coming home with the twins. to see laundry scatted every where and a bunch of horse and human prints in dirt patches of the yard. he had first thought it was one of Marrina's tricks but when she didn't come out and shout "ha got you" did worry start to set in. he then thought maybe shes down at Arlon's actually apologizing. so off he went but when he reached Arlon he said he hadent seen her all day. he did however see a group of men they looked lost so he assumed they were looking for Malcolm and pointed them in the direction of his house. when Malcolm asked what they were wearing Arlon described them wearing Tevinter armor did Malcom's heart sink. he new his little girl was now gone.

when Marrina awoke again it was to a rocking sensation. she cracked her eyes open to bright lights. disoriented she thought it was carver at first jumping on her bed again when he wanted her up to explore for secrets in their new went to turn over and cover her head with her blanket. carver had learned the hard way that when she did this she wanted to be left she pulled the blanket she felt something heavy on her wrist and heard the clink of metal. the sound brought her back to what happened and she shot into a sitting position. she took in her surroundings and noticed that her wrist and ankles were chained, she had a collar around her neck with numbers on it, and she dint have a blanket to herself. she was sharing it with three elves. the way they were grouped together look like it was a mother and her two children. the mother and girl had bright red hair where as the boy had black hair like hers. it brought tears to her eyes when she saw them together. it made her realize that she would never see hers again. Marrina jumped the mother of the group had spoken to her "I'm sorry what" "i asked what your name was dear." "oh its Marrina" Marrina that's a pretty name. my name is Kataline" "oh um nice to meet you i guess." Kataline gave a small chuckle. then she asked "where is your mother or father" "not here" "oh were you separated onto a different ship?" "no i was taken from my home" after those word Marrina felt a sting in her eyes. she new she was going to cry so she hid her face. she felt warm arms around her as she cried. when the tears had finally stopped Kataline asked her how old she was. she replied that she was ten. Kataline smiled she said that Marrina was the same age as her boy. when Marrina asked how old her girl was she said the her girl was five. Marrina smiled at that. "same age as bethany and carver" she thought.
