Chapter Two: Solace
In a small clearing not far from the town of Solace two figures emerged into the blood red light of Lunitari. One was a red robed mage with golden hair and brilliant blue eyes the other was a slate gray cat with very long hair and green/yellow eyes. Sara and Alex stared into the wall of trees in front of them.
"Just great," Alex complained. "Now you've gotten us lost again."
"Quiet!" Sara demanded, slight irritation entering her voice. This forest was affecting her keen sense of direction. She stared one way then the next until she found what she was looking for: a small dirt path that would take them to Solace. "We're not lost. Follow me." She led the way down the path as Alex trotted slowly behind her.
In the Inn of the Last Home, where one comes for Otik's famous spiced potatoes, Tika was just heading back to the kitchen for another skillet of potatoes and mug of ale when a young woman dressed in red robes entered the inn and sat down at the table in the far corner of the room. (A table that would later would hold the unsuspecting Warriors of the Lance) Tika looked at the young woman then sighed. Another customer to see to.
Sara sat back in her chair and took in her surroundings. The table to the left of her had what looked to be a group of locals from Solace who were enjoying the potatoes and fine ale. Across the room, near the door, three travelers sat with their cloaks still on and faces hidden in the darkness of their hoods. She noticed them staring back at her then begin to whisper quietly to one another giving her more glances in between. Being unable to see their faces Sara couldn't tell of what race they were but instead made a mental note to stay away from them.
With the next traveler Alex sulked into the inn and made his way to Sara unnoticed.
"Hear anything?" Sara asked once he was safely under her table.
"No. Nothing," Alex replied with a tinge of anger in his voice. "I almost got my tail stepped on!"
"Shhh!"
The barmaid with fiery red curls who had previously been seeing to the locals beside Sara's table came over to her table.
"What can I get you?" Tika asked in the best fake cheerful voice possible. The weariness on her face was visible.
"Water please and some answers if you don't mind," Sara replied softly motioning for Tika to sit down.
Unsure of what else to do Tika obeyed and sat down across from Sara.
"I'm searching for Raistlin Majere. Any idea where I can find him?" Sara asked casually.
Tika took a moment to think. "You mean Caramon's brother?" she sighed then frowned. "They've been gone for the last three years. I don't know where they are. I'm sorry."
"Thank you for your time then," Sara said bewildered. Tika nodded and went back to the kitchen.
"Well what are we going to do now?" Alex purred softly from beneath the table.
Sara sighed and dropped her head into her hands. "I don't know,"
"Too bad. Can we go home now?" Alex asked sleepily. "I'm tired."
"No!" Sara replied fiercely. "I'm not giving up!"
A light tap on the shoulder startled her back into reality and out of her rage. Sara looked up into the light blue almond shaped eyes of what could only be a young elf. The young elf who had come over from the table across the room removed his traveling cloak and sat down next to Sara.
"I couldn't help but overhear you mention the name Raistlin Majere. What business do you have with him may I ask?" The elf asked politely.
Sara looked long at the elf before answering. Light blue eyes and wavy golden hair that cascaded about his shoulders didn't ring a bell in her mind at the moment. There was nothing suspicious about him other then the fact that he was still young and boldly walked up to a person he didn't know and start conversation about a mage he should know nothing about. He didn't look like the Dark Elves she had seen but then again you could never tell. A young mage named Dalamar she had met was sure to be kicked out of Silvanesti once they got wind of what he had been dabbling in and he didn't remotely look evil. Curiosity got the better of her. After all curiosity killed the cat, not the mage. She nodded. "Who are you? Do you know Raistlin?"
She saw the elf's shoulders lift in a shrug. "I do not, of course, but I know someone who does. As for my name it is Teryenas. You may call me Teryen."
"Why are you telling me this?" Sara asked suspiciously. There was something in his voice that made her think twice about trusting him.
"For your own benefit as well as mine," Teryen replied smoothly.
"I don't trust him," Alex chimed from underneath the table.
The voice startled Teryen visibly. He quickly looked under the table at Alex in shock.
"It spoke!" he exclaimed shakily.
"No dua," was Alex's response as he leapt up onto Sara's lap again and eyed Teryen curiously. "I wouldn't listen to him. Let's just go back home Master. Please," Alex begged.
Sara sighed. "I already told you that's not an option," she then turned to Teryen. "Will you take us to this person who knows Raistlin?"
Teryen nodded. "Of course. I wouldn't have bothered you if I wouldn't," Teryen responded allowing a little too much eagerness into his voice. "We are leaving for Qualinesti in the morning. Will you meet us outside of this inn?"
Sara agreed. "I shall." She watched as Teryen got up and walked silently back to his table and eagerly awaiting friends.
