"Anywhere he can I suppose. In Vrist only the females are allowed to be rune mages, it's a double to thier being priestesses. Or so my father tells me. Which means Sevilin isn't allowed to be one, yet he's a Master. That means he's been doing some serious deception to his own kind. They'd kill him for it. So you know...where better to get away than on a completely different plane?" Oh she knew that one well now didn't she? "Father gave him gate compenents and a few crests to different planes. Truth be told, Sevilin could split on us at any moment." She was quiet a moment, watching the water. "Gods I wish I could go swimming..." Sure the horses didn't mind...but that water was freezing and full of things that liked to eat elves.

She looked thoughtful for a good while. Sevilin could leave at anytime. He was leaving the plane but where would he go? That sparked her interest and then the thought of getting off this plane entirely. Not having to worry about getting caught by a Drow from her homecity who would be more than happy to drag her back home and handle the sacrifice that she'd run from. Of course punishment for running would be administered first. Lloth liked her sacrifices full of stripes and tears in their eyes. Sick b***h. She might have to bring that up with the sneaky Drow at some point when they were actually speaking to each other. "I wouldn't advise it. And if you do go in there I"m not pulling you out when something grabs you and then when I come home wihtout you Malik won't be happy."

Another sigh. "I know...I'm just saying..." But it was really one of those sacrifices she was making to stay with Malik. You didn't swim in the Underdark waters unless you were a creature made to. It was as plain and simple as that. A whistle then, drawing the attention of foals who ran from the water to the shore at her sound. Yes they had learned what the sound meant. Pets for them. "Just don't push to make things happen Zahara...let them happen as they may and take their course."

Her eyes sparkled and she laughed, "How did you get so smart Piper? Oh yes, must be that influence of Kieran shining through." And as the Zephmares came running Zahara produced that bag of sugar and spoiled them both with two cubes each and pats to boot. By the bad Queen, these two were so spoiled. But they were fun to spoil and they were still sweet tempered which was a good thing. "Are we ready to head back then?" It had been an enjoyable morning but soon Malik was going to begin to worry and she knew Piper didn't want to deal with that.

Piper giggled. "Ah let's just call it I've been exposed to much one of my age shouldn't have gotten into yet. And Kieran...both my parents saw that I was well educated when I was still home." Picking herself up off the ground she offered a hand to Zahara as her free one took to putting her bow over her shoulder and putting away the arrow Serino brought back. "Might as well...if Malik asks, we had food out here."

Zahara took the offered hand and pulled herself to a standing position brushing off the back of her skirt with her hands and then clapping them together to rid them of anything that might have clung to her. You just never knew in the Underdark. "So we're lying to Malik, now are we? Afraid he's going to jump you with a plate of food the moment you walk in the door?" She chuckled and said, "He probably didn't even realize we were gone. But I gotcha. We had a wonderful meal that one of the slaves prepared just for such an occasion."

"No wrong. We had a wonderful meal of travel food. He left me in bed, so in order to have a meal like that he would of had to see me." A little shrug as she turned and started back up hill...helping little horses seeing as they were having a bit of trouble with the slope. "Besides...he knows I'm gone...we're bonded for one thing and that sword of his rats me out continually. I just don't want to fight with him over food is all."

"Great, you know I get yelled at for being a bad influence on you? But it's not like it matters anyway. Alright, we had a wonderful meal of travel food." She lent her assistance to the foals as well, poor little ones. Traveling back uphill was hard just like it was different going down. "I guess I should let Malik and Sevilin know that I'll be training with him for however long it takes." She sighed, she wasn't relishing this new position she was forced to take. Hopefully it would pay off though.

"Oh everyone down here is a bad influence on me." With the slope leveling out she let the foals tend to getting themselves up the rest of the way, thier parents of course at that lazy pace behind. Though she didn't stable them...they were find on thier own and they would take themselves to their stalls. Smart critters. "I know it's not appealing, but take it from someone who's been there before...it won't be that way forever."

She sighed again, "Being my friend you're supposed to come up with something for me to do to delay putting me in that humiliating position for just a little while longer. But do you? No, you encourage me to go do it, like leading an innocent lamb to the slaughter. Shame on you Piper." Zahara laughed softly and then hugged Piper. "You sure you won't help me delay this?"

"Aw do you have to say it like that? That sounds so horrible...I'm not good with picturing myself as horrible. It just isn't good for my head." Made her think too much on the previous version of her that was here, that she was trying to override the influence of really. "You can't put it off forever Zahara...and you know the longer you wait the worse off it's going to be. You do your part and I'll do my part. Anything in particular you want me to try and work?"

She nodded, "I know. I need to go and get it over with. Besides I have to apologize to Malik for destroying his dining room and Sevilin for causing the fight." She toed the ground wiht her boot for a moment then said softly, "Get this rune off me. It makes me nervous thinking about what he might be able to do with it. Other than that, I"ll take care of everything myself. Thanks Piper." And Zahara walked off inside. She came into the wreckage of the dining room and playing her new role, simply stood there until she was addressed. She was not goign to interrupt the proceedings and she was not going to make her presence known anymore htan she already had.

"Oh you destroyed the dining room?" A shake of her head at that. If Malik hated anything it was his property being destroyed. Well that would be interesting to say the least. Wonder if he had exploded...though through bond feel...seemed like he hadn't really cared. Which was odd...But a not to Zahara. "I'll make sure of it." For a moment she stood outside before taking off her bandana and slipping it around her collar, took to shining it as she had been earlier. Walking inside she merely too a seat in the main room to listen in on what what happening in the dinning room.
Sevilin's eyes went hard. She was back already? Well what in blazes did she want now? No he wasn't going to take that rune off of her if she'd come to argue with him over that. It would do her well to live with uncertainty for a few days in his opinion. Miss High and Mighty...she could stand to be brought down a few notches.
So he choose for the moment to ignore her without really ignoring her. He had bigger things to watch out for right now anyway and more important things to concentrate on.

"Deformity. how pleasent. I see nothing deformed about you yet. however I'm willing to wager your deformity is the reason you keep your skin covered. find the picture, or at least a memory, and then I'll see if she's near enough to here and send you on your way...well...depending on whom it is. you might be more valuable to me here. if it's nothing major, I can gather the slight influence for 'finding' you."
Then a glance to Zahara.
"You destroyed my kitchen. I'm surprised your moving within thirty feet of me, Zahara. however since your here, what is it you want?"

He smiled. "I'm sure you'll notice it when you figure it out. If I'm here long enough that is. Now...whay was I doing? Oh right.." He shrugged, and digging more around in his pockets he found a very ordinary looking locket. He flicked it open. "Well, this isn't her, but it just might look like here." Inside the locket were two minuature portraits. One of Ton, one of Eca.
"Influence? I don't know about that. She's never met me before."
