Disclaimer-I do not own david edding characters.
I'm sorry I haven't updated for a while, I got a new apartment and started college. I also want to apologize for names of my characters and places. The Demonous people will have Japanese names and I understand that the last name is first and the first name is last, but this isn't Japan and names will be the regular first then last. For Nypharia I'm going with Spanish names, the explanation for why Tate name isn't Spanish will come later.
Polgara reached the inn her and Slik was suppose to meet the old wolf in. After walking in and receiving strange looks from the inn keepers, they were directed to their rooms. Polgara was able to get her own room but was slightly annoyed that the inn didn't have private baths. Silk and Belgarath had to share one but thankfully it had two beds.
Belgarath had already set up a table, had the map out and was studying when they got to the men's room. When he saw the unconscious girl he gave Pol and accusing look.
"Don't give me that look." Polgara glared at her father, "She was already like this when I found her." She pointed to a bed, "Silk put her down and make her comfortable. I have a feeling that she I going to be out a bit longer."
Nodding Silk did that. After placing the girl down carefully and covering her up with blankets he walked to the table and looked at the map, "So found a route yet?" He was answered with a grunt.
"I know that you don't have a extensive vocabulary Father but I know you know enough words to tell us the route." Polgara crossed her arms again and looked at the map. She noticed a thin charcoal line coming from a small dot with main city written above it. She assumed that this was where they were. The line traveled up and over to the right to another part marked Demonous and to the middle where another dot could be seen with main city on the top. "Don't the cities have names?" She asked annoyed.
"They do…" Belgarath sighed, "The name of the city we are in is Moscú, the city we need to get to is Shiroi."
"We're going to Demonous?" Silk raised an eyebrow, "do you think that is a good Idea?"
Polgara looked at Silk with question in her eyes, "What is wrong with traveling through Demonous?"
"Nothing, just the whole area is mostly desert. There is one large oasis in the center but its hard to get to unless you are already know where it is and the only people who do are Demon." Silk sighed, "Demon people are not the most friendly race out there…they are kind of like Uglos, religious, isolated, and not fans of foreigners."
Belgarath scratched his beard, "Shiroi is where most of the Demonous population lives and also where the main temple is. The Head Priestess at the temple also acts as a ruler and is highly respected. They're strong believers of Ul and believe that the other Gods are lower then him . The Priestess believes that the rest of the world is corrupted and has done everything in her power to almost completely isolate Demonous, the only time they have contact with any of the other races is when they trade and that is rare, they have everything they need on the Oasis to survive comfortably." He stood up and stretched he looked over at the girl still passed out in the bed, "So why is she here?"
"We were robbed." Polgara smiled, "She acted as the distraction while her partner took my money. We chased them and they split up. We lost the boy but I found her passed out in an alley." She looked at the map, "Do you know a Demon that can get us there? Will they let us enter the city?"
Belgarath looked surprised then laughed, "Robbed?" He started but a glare from Polgara stopped him. "sorry…." He coughed, "I do, I meet him the last time I was here His name is Ki. He is a merchant from the city and surprisingly does not believe in the isolation the Priestess wants." He shrugged at Polgara's second question, "I don't if they'll let us in. I got in last time by wearing my best robes and showing cheap magic tricks that wooed the people there long enough for me to get food, water, and loggings for a week before they kicked me out."
There was a moan from the bed, everyone turned to face it. The girl's eyes flew open and she shot up with a startled yelp. Polgara was by her side in the matter of seconds when the girl started to breath heavily and looking around as if she expected enemies to pop out of no where. Polgara put a hand on the girls forehead and she started calm down.
"That's better." Polgara gave the girl a small smile, "we will not hurt you, you are safe. Can you tell us your name?"
"K-Ki…" Was all she said before she passed out again.
Tate managed to sweet talk the manager's wife of the hotel into telling him which room the man and woman entered. After giving the rather ugly woman's hand a peck and a charming smile he walked out to the back and looked up at the wall and at the window where he guessed the room his sister was in.
The stones that made up the building was laid poorly and a lot of them stuck out creating perfect stepping stones for him to climb on. He took a deep breath and started to climb, slowly. About three feet from the ground he lost footing and fell to the ground, "ow…" he looked up again, "This is going to harder then I thought."
Promise I will post soon. I wanted to get this done before I go to work.
