Hikari Tsuki no Kogo Kessho by Lady Artemis Cosmos
Treesong k'Leshya sighed as he headed toward the clearing where the heartstone stood when k'Sheyna had lived in this Vale. He heard the wing beats of gryphons overhead. Suddenly, he felt his stomach fall out in what could only be the opening of a gate. Quickly he ran toward the direction of the gate along with all of the other warrior scouts of his clan. The lush growth that once would have hindered his progress had been cleared away, but he was still one of the last to arrive. He came to a stop in the clearing right outside the Vale entrance. Two dozen of his fellow scouts, with their weapons drawn, surrounded a group of outlanders.
The group of outlanders was a total of six. The four males had moved to form a protective circle around the two females. One of the females had the bleached look of a Tayledras Adept. She clung to the female next to her with a look of absolute fear on her face. The one she clung to was her exact opposite of her looks, the dark to her light. The dark one held the girl protectively. The males around were of varying colorations.
Treesong was part of the council so he was expected to take control of the situation. He called to the group, "You have trespassed on our lands. Who are you? Where are you from?"
The males of the group tensed even further as they hear him speak, but did not answer. Treesong heard a mindvoice speak in perfect Kaled'a'in.
: What is going on? What did he say? Why are they attacking? Yami:
: Hikari, calm down. This is their territory. We need to find a way to communicate. :
: Yami:
: Shhhh. It's alright we won't let them hurt you. :
Treesong was stunned by the projection of the voices. He heard the terror and betrayal in the mindvoice of Hikari. She was need of mindhealing. Turning to one of the scouts he said, "Go get the mages."
He turned to the group and said as well as he could in Kaled'a'in, "Who are you and where are you from?"
The dark female answered, "We are looking for a place to heal one of our number and to rest. We know nothing of this place and wish to learn. We came here from a place where we were exiled for siding with the truth."
"I have asked our leaders to here to decide what to do. That is all I can do for now," Treesong replied in return.
"Is it possible to relax your guard on us a little?"
"Yes," Treesong replied, to the scouts he said, "Relax your weapons but keep watch."

PLEASE GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK! I AM IN MAJOR NEED OF IDEAS!
Where is Firesong in the Mage Storms series?
What do you think of having the Companions being able to take the form of another animal if necessary?
Thank you, Lady Artemis Cosmos
