» An Unexpected Party

This cold, oh how I hate it. Lady is almost thriving in it. Her coat has grown in thick and warm... Mine, well is still trying to catch up since I was very skinny not to long ago. Not that i'm much better now, but at least it's not looking like i'll drop dead any minute. Our bellies however, well we both are hungry, most of the time in fact.

But that doesn't seem to stop us from wandering and exploring. This time we moved north west. I am eager to explore, mostly to see if I see anyone I know. Calypso, Sarai and Sapphira all seemed to of disappeared. I am worried about them, but not as much as my missing son. What would Ilios think of me? His one son seemed to be doing well, since I saw him at that herd meeting.... But the one I helped give life. The one that I carried safely into the Rift.... Gods what if the Rift took him away? No think that. Lady's voice although broken in speech, pulls me from that trail of thoughts.

Strange light. Lady suddenly stops and looks just off to the east of where we were walking. I see it too, but hesitate to go to it. The last time I had seen strange light... Well Uncle Aaron and my cousins Brendan and Farah hadn't made it out... Nor had Ilios and other members of his family... We go? Lady prods me to move, wanting to check it out. I nod. This was going to have one of two outcomes. Either it was going to be really good, or really bad....

When we get closer, others have already gathered and... what's this? Everyone seemed, okay? Lady pads along at my side as we make though the crowd.

Sansa

But my heart's been hurt a couple times
By a couple guys that didn't treat me right
I ain't gon' lie, ain't gon' lie
