460 H.E. November 12
"Listen," Raoul's commanding voice carried over the group of silent men easily. "Quinden is off 'scouting' with a group of trusted men. He will not be back for at least three hours, which gives us time. Here is the plan. Quinden and a group of men will split off from us and head west to check out Mindelan. We will tell Quinden that we are heading east, staying on Tortallan soil, to visit the fort with the mutiny. The mutiny in reality was cleared up a few days ago. Robert left, probably to resume his work in Scanra now that they've captured Kel. We will really head up to the dungeon they are holding Kel in. Hopefully we will be able to get her back…" he swallowed. "Alive."
Dom stood and went to stand beside the knight-commander.
"Right," Dom said. "Now we need to figure out who is going with Quinden and who is going to save Kel. All those with Quinden, hands!"
Hands went up around the circle. Dom pointed to five men. "You go with Quinden. Two of those with him now will accompany you. Be very careful to keep Quinden in the dark."
They nodded. "The rest of you are with us," Raoul said.
They could hear the sentries' horn calls saying people were approaching. After they heard the answering call meaning 'We're friends,' the group dispersed; they knew Quinden was back.

Dom brushed Hoshi intently. He was thinking about Kel.
'Gods,' he thought. 'Why do I keep thinking about her? Yes we were friends but we were only friends. We weren't even that close. She's just so…what was she? She was pretty, in a natural way, she was kind, loving, always putting others ahead of herself…. always trying to improve herself…. she's amazing. Mithros, why am I having these thoughts?'
He sent a silent prayer up to any listening gods to protect Kel and trotted off to find Raoul.

I know it's short…. forgive me….I've been squeezing writing in between studying, going out to my grandma's nursing home, and work….I'll try to make up for it in the next chappie….
Uh think of it this way: the shorter they are the faster they can come : )
