Chapter 3
Giving Khalan a concerned glance as he reached for the journal, Richard glared at Zedd as the old wizard snatched it first.
Taking a deep breath, Khalan looked at Emmalyne as she asked, "You have read the journal?"
"I have. There are few secrets between myself and Charis, mostly those that Lord Rahl asks us to keep. On that thought, I should warn you that Rahl is making his monthly visit and check-in on a...project that he is heavily invested in. He should be here in time for dinner."
"May I ask what it is that he is so invested in or is it a secret?" Zedd asked as he glanced up from his reading of the journal.
Charis and Emmalyne looked at each other before she nodded her head and he sighed as he leaned back in his chair.

I am so sorry for the shortness, but I am trying to finish up my work so I can head to a friends' house so we can discuss the terms of a vacation they are taking.
I am so sorry for the long wait, on not only this, but all my stories. I just graduated with two certificates, however my days of studying are not over yet as I have to sit for the state boards that are required for one of them, so that will take a lot of my time, along with the fact that both of my employers are working me to the bone, especially the one I am one of two people that cover a shift and the other person has been AWOL for pretty much the last two weeks. Ugh...I promise though, that I will do my best to update when I can...like right now, I'm borrowing the kitchen computer while waiting to close said kitchen...
