The next two days past quickly…on the dawn of the third, Kel woke up and immediately went to her bedroom window, which overlooked the ocean. In the water was the ship George had promised them.
She grinned…perfect. Now they could be on their way. Truth told, she had been getting antsy, sitting around the past two days, and she was sure Dom felt the same way.
Hurriedly dressing and putting the few items back in her bags that she had brought, she went down the stairs and out to the courtyard. She was surprised to see Dom and George were already waiting there for her. Dom must have been more anxious than she had thought.
With a grin, she greeted them. "Morning!"
They replied in kind, both with grins on their face. The company began to board the ship, and Dom and Kel watched as they did, all the while talking to George.
"Yes, we know where to look. We'll see you when we get back, Baron." He and Kel, then he and Dom, locked forearms.
"Good luck, and may the gods be with you," he called after them as they walked up the dock and onto the ship. Under his breath, he added, "You'll need it, lady knight."
Ah, I know, very short chapter. Short and sucky. Ah, well. Live with it. I gave you at least one semi-decent one…if you want to call it that. I do, because otherwise I would be calling it something none too polite…and I don't want to do that, since I did write it after all.
