Chapter two
"Knock, knock"
"I wonder who that could be." Starwind set Kess on a cushion. He rose from his chair and went to the door of ekele. "Hello." He first saw his wingsister Savil. He then smiled at Savil and held out his hands. "Welcome heart-sister, Wingsister Savil," he said in liquid Taylendras tongue. He then glided to her to take her hands into his own. "Always welcome, and well come thou art."
"Starwind, It is wonderful to see you again. I wish it were for more joyful reasons I have come to you today. I am afraid I urgently need your help."
"And you have it." Starwind replied with a look of worry on his face. "But what is it you require?"
"I need your help with this," she said and stepped aside for Starwind to see Dreamseeker holding a sleeping, injured boy in his arms.
"What is the matter with him," he said as he touched Talo brow and yanked his hand back just as quickly as though he had been burned. "God of my fathers and Goddess of my mothers, what have you brought me Wingsister Savil! I have never felt so much pain and grief before!"
Savil sighed, "It is a long story. May we come in?"
"Of course." Starwind replied, quickly stepping aside to let Savil and Dreamseeker enter. "Bring him over here." He said while walking into another room with a bed. Dreamseeker walked over to the bed and placed Tallo on it.
"If that is all you require, I will take my leave now." Dreamseeker said.
"Thank you for your help Dreamseeker, I hope to get to speak with you again." Savil replied.
"Me too. Wind to thy wings Wingsister Savil." He replied.
"Wing to thy wings Dreamseeker." Savil replied as Dreamseeker left the room. Savil turned and saw that Starwind was looking at Tallo." I guess it would be best for me to tell from the beginning what happened."
"The beginning is always the best place to start." Starwind replied. He then glanced up at Savil with worry in his eyes. Savil sighed and sat down in a chair next to the bed.
"Here is what happened."

"I see." Starwind replied after Savil finished her story. He had a look of anger across his face from the thought of what Tallo's supposed family and people had done to him. "I still do not understand your people's blind hatred of the Shay'a'chern but I will do what I can to help him."
"Thank you, I had hope you would be willing to help. I do not understand it either, but I guess people fear what they do not understand." She said with a look of sadness upon her face.
"I had forgotten earlier but where is the white lady Kellan."
:I am in a stable being brushed down. : Kellan replied to Starwind's question.
"She says that she is being brushed down by someone." Savil replied with a yawn.
"It grows late and you must be weary from your long journey. I will take you to a room." Starwind replied.
"But..." Savil replied.
"Do not worry about Tallo, I will watch over him." Starwind said while leading Savil to an extra bed.
"Thank you, Starwind for all your help. Goodnight." Savil said while lying down on the bed.
"Goodnight, Savil." Starwind replied while walking out the door. With a last glace he noticed that she was already asleep. Chuckling, he walked back to his room and looked at Tallo.
"What am I going to do with you?" He said while sitting in the chair Savil had occupied earlier that evening and prepared for a long night.
