Ash: Time to start! Oh I forgot to add Iyu on the Oc page. Oops. You'll find out who Iyu is later anyways...

Keladry of Mindelan's view:

"What? We just got home! The King can't send us away to Verithigo now!"

Kel, Keladry, paced up and down in Lord Raoul's study. She was muttering furiously under her breath with an occasional outburst. Lord Raoul of Goldenlake watched worriedly as his squire paced.

"I'm sorry, Kel, but it's a diplomatic mission. We only recently realized that Verithigo existed,and, well...his advisors wouldn't let him go first...so...we're seeing if these, ah, natives are really as advanced as the rumors tell."

"But why us? Why not Nealan or Cleon or...or..."

Kel's voice died.

"Well, Neal is a healer mage, and not very diplomatic. Cleon is at Fort Mastiff with Inness. Considering the inexperience of most other squires, we are going. Besides, it's not like we're going alone..."

Kel stopped her pacing.

"What?"

"Yes, we're going with Domitan's Squad. You really thought we'd go without backup?"

Kel sighed. So she might actually have fun on this trip.

"Relieved?"

"Very."

"So stop standing around. Get packed!"

Ash: I know, I know, short chapter but I always write choppy.

Sh: Yes, you didn't even tell who those other characters are.

Ash: I'm improvising...and hoping people will make inferences! Yumei? Help?

Y: Lay off, Shun she'd experimenting with "no script writing" sort of writing.

Sh: Then she should practice!

Ash: What am I doing right now, dumbo?

Sh: Well practice on something else!

Ash: You know what?-

Yumei: *sigh* I usually do all the fighting...well peoples, review share whatever you real peeps do on this website...
