After lunch most of the dubbins had settled down for a nap. Inka lounged
in the shade of an ash tree. Widdia lay next to her. What she dreamed only
she knew.
Soon Inka was asleep too. Inka would often dream of being back home. Playing with Ace when they where still young, sneaking though her mom's garden to pinch anything that had just turned ripe, laying next to the stream that ran close by. But this dream was different. She dreamed she was standing in front of the tapestry that hung in the great hall. For some strange reason she was staring at the mouse holding a sword. The mouse then just stepped from the tapestry. Inka felt no fear. She didn't know why, but she felt this mouse was a friend. He only said a few words "The hunter approaches"

Inka awoke with a start. Widdia had jumped on her stomach and knocked the wind out of her.
"Come on. Uppity uppity Inka. Sleepy head Inka. Get up"
"If you get off me maybe then I can get up" gasped Inka.
Widdia jumped off Inka and started to tug on her paw. "Come on Inka. I wanna play. We are waiting for you"
"Oh go ahead without me. I have to ask Abbess Sonsa about something"
Widdia ran of to play leaving Inka at the ash tree trying to figure out what the dream meant. She recalled Sonsa telling her about the warrior. How he was the guiding spirit and how he always helped them in times of trouble. Inka quickly set off to find Sonsa. She knew Sonsa would need to know about this.
