This is set a year and a half after the end of the Tamuli.
Chap 1: Snow in Thalasia
It was snowing, but of course it was always snowing in Emsat. If it wasn't snowing that would have worried him. He sighed, he should be out getting drunk with his Gendian brothers about now.
"What are you doing brute?" A female voice asked from the doorway of the room. She looked at Ulath dip his quill in ink and continuing the letter. She didn't think it suited him at all. "Don't ignore me."
"Go away brat, I'm busy."
"You're always busy brute, just 'cause I'm your sister doesn't mean you can ignore me."
"Sir Brute to you."
"You aren't at the chapterhouse, so I won't unless you start adressing me as Lady Brat."
Ulath sighed and put the quill down, he always made sure to write to old friends once in a while, but writing didn't come naturally to him. "I'm writing a letter," He said simply.
"Well thanks Sir Brute, my eyes have just recently been gouged out by an ogress and I forget to take note of the blatantly obvious." She said with a grin as she looked over his shoulder. "Damn... stick with the axe Ulath, trust me on this one..."
"Ah go away brat," he grumbled as he pushed her away gently.
"Lady Brat," She stated before leaving the room with a smirk.
Ulath shook his head as he read the letter over. He through the letter in the low embers of the fire. He decided that written words wouldn't do anymore, he'd just have to visit Cimmura. A year and a half was too long scince he last saw his friends. He sighed again as he looked outside, he would have to wait for this most recent winter storm to abate wouldn't he?
*~§~*~§~*~§~*
"You what?!" Ulath's little sister exclaimed when he announced his plans to travel. "But... But you promised to take me troll hunting!" she said in a whiny voice.
"Oh stop that Brat. You know I wouldn't take you anyway." Ulath said in his most comanding tone. It was not only the danger of this particular activity but he had been pack-mates with Bhlokw for a while, which had turned his thoughts a little.
She stuck her tongue out at him. "That's not the point Brute, I don't want you to go. You're gonna leave for a long time and have a big adventure, without me!"
"No adventures this time Lady Brat, just a reunion."
"Yeah right!" She said and cursed in the guttural language of the trolls.
"Stop that! You don't know what they mean."
"Oh please, you taught me, of course I know what they mean. Would you like me to describe what they mean in detail to prove it?"
Ulath sighed and put a big hand on her shoulder. "I'm going, I'll see you when I get back. Stay out of trouble." He said, and left the room.
"Like that's gonna happen."
*~§~*~§~*~§~*
Ulath was leaving tommorow, and his sister was finding little sleep. At first she was just worried for him, he had just come back after all. She knew he could take care of himself, she had seen him rashly take on a full grown male troll by himself; but she worried none the less.
She suddenly stopped thinking, or breathing, when she saw it. Just the flicker at the edge of her vision, and the howl it made, filled with such despair. More came, more howls and shadows. She buried her head in the blankets, hoping to block out the howls in her mind. The howls were filled with such lonelyness and despair, she began to cry.
"Not again, please not again!"
A/N: I have yet to decide on Ulath's sister's name... We'll see in the next chapter. Any comments plz email me at zobias_21@hotmail.com ^_^ and reveiw of course!
