Rob: Yeah, Caila forgot to type this and put it with the last chapter xD So here yah go!

"Get up." A gruff voice said to Kel. She stretched her cramped legs, but when she got out of the wagon she fell to the ground, having sat in the wagon bed for the past two days. The breeze brought the scnet of salt water to her nose, and the intense heat and the shifting earth beneath her feet told her she was somewhere on the southern coast of Tortall, if she was even still in Tortall. Hands removed the blindfold from her eyes, and she inwardly screamed as the bright sunlight blinded her. At the edges of her vision, she saw a familiar young man standing a few feet away, a dark piece of cloth in his hand that Kel recognized as her blindfold. Kel started to speak, but her dry throat caused her to have no voice. She motioned for water, and the younger man tipped a flask into her mouth. Kel's mouth and throat now wetted, she managed to croak out one word.

"Qimat." The man laughed.

"But of course, my lady. Now, we have a few questions to ask. Such as, where is the lady Qiana?" Kel had a blank look on her face, not because of her Yamani mask, but because she had absolutely no clue who that lady was. She shook her head, and Matthew continued. "Or should I say Cai Thatcher? You see, she's quite important to me. Without her, my life just has no meaning." Kel's mind raced back to the last time she had seen Cai, stumbling to the woods, her entire body covered in welts and bruises and blood. She took another sip of the water, and said,

"I was tied up and knocked out. How could I bloody know? It's your own fault she escaped." A hand slapped her face, hitting the bruise where Cleon had hit her before.

"Impudent wench. Put the blindfold back on her, son. We need to get to the boat." This voice was the gruff one that had first spoken, and Kel recognized Daniel of Qimat. Before the blindfold slipped over Kel's eyes again, the distant shores of Carthak beckoned to her.
