In which Cimorene and Kazul are surprised by a young girl, a very large cat, and a blind man (who happens to be rather young himself) and many things happen as a result
(part 4)
"Who's Morwen?" asked Daine.
"A good friend of ours, she's a witch, you'll like her. Now let's be off!"
They stepped into the forest. Karal felt something odd wash over him as he stepped across the border, "What!?" he exclaimed. Then he realized he was alone in the deep forest.
~~~~~
"Where's Karal?" Altra asked, practically hysterical with panic and worry.
"I don't know Altra but don't worry. The forest will protect him. They know he's a friend of mine and besides, it likes him." Cimorene stroked the cat, trying to calm him down.
"What do you mean? How can a forest like someone?" Daine asked.
"You're forgetting this is the enchanted forest. The forest likes Karal because it can sense his goodness and pure spirit."
Daine's mouth formed into a silent 'oh' and she turned to see where they had arrived at, Altra finally calming down enough to think clearly, which didn't help anybody.
"But he can't see!" Altra wailed, starting to panic again.
"I'm sure he'll be fine, the forest'll just keep shifting until he's led here to Morwen's. We'll wait here for him for a while though. I promise." Cimorene restarted her efforts to sooth the perturbed cat.
Once again, Daine turned to look at there current location and was surprised by a large sign painted with gold lettering reading : NONE OF THIS NONSENSE, PLEASE.
Daine had a feeling that she would be intrigued by this woman.
