An Old Friend

"Wait .. so you're telling me you know another aasmiar?" Kamaria asked, confusion very evident on her face. Neil nodded "Her name ... I still can't remember but she was a descendent of Apollo, the sun god, and she worked very hard to see my demise" Neil explained. Kamaria scrunched her eyebrows together and shook her head, "But why? Why did she just hate you without a reason?" She questioned with the innocence of a young child. Neil sighed, "She was blinded by what everyone told her. She thought she was doing the right thing .. however I believe after the fact, she realized the truth" Neil continued, eyes kept on ground level. Augustus turned towards Neil, his bones making chattering noises as he did so, "Maybe she could help us then?" He asked his foggy friend. Neil just shook his head, "Help us? I dont know how to contact her, let alone know if she even wants anything to do with me. Who knows if her hatred still resides" Neil responded, shifting positions on the couch, Kamaria sighed, "aasmiars aren't very commonly seen in this area, since its so rural, but maybe I can ask Selûne? I mean ... shes a god, she has to know something! She knew I was going to get followed if I came here" Kamaria explained, waiting for reactions to her Idea. Neil nodded "Sounds like a good idea, but its going to start getting dark soon, maybe wait? We all look a little rough" He suggested, Kamaria nodded in agreement "Yeah, I'm pretty tired from all this running, and besides, I don't think I'm very welcome back at that village, could I stay here tonight with you guys?" She asked. Augustus clapped his hands with glee, "Oh boy! My first sleep over! I'm going to be the best host ever!" He said happily and quickly went to go set up everything he needed to make a perfect slumber party.

Hevanst paced back and forth inside the room of the Inn, Lesk and Renee entered, exhausted. "Where is Kamaria? Its getting dark! Hasn't anybody seen her?!" Hevanst asked nervously. Kamaria has never been on her own this long, he had no idea what she could do, where she could go, or what would happen to her if left to her own devices. Renee shook her head "No, Kamaria is quick, and smart. She slipped away as soon as we were blinded.. It seemed as though she used magic? I know she can use magic, but I dont remember any of us ever teaching her any. " She responded, placing her items down and taking a long deserved break. Hevanst worryingly walked towards the window and peered out onto the lit up town below, "My poor Kamaria.... how will we find you.." he stated solemnly. Lesk snickered behind the old man, "Don't worry, Hevanst. I'm bringing in an old friend of mine who I know for a fact, will track her down.." he said smugly as the front door flew open and figure with a head of golden blonde hair stood in the door way.
