"It is a pleasure to meet you." He gives a little bow.
--
"Well I'm not leaving you alone in the forest, so you're going to have to do something."
--
He sits in the inky black cellar for at least ten minutes, trembling, before moving again. This time into the storage compartment of a carriage that's moving along the road.

She blinks and courtsies. "And you."
"I need to attend Master Cervelli. Pleaes excuse me." Lindsey gives her another nervous look and hurries away.
--
"It's quieter. I only hear you." He reaches for her arm.
---
The air around list grows cold for a moment then the lamp shakes.

"Have fun!" He waves to Lindsey as the little dude departs.
--
"Am I bothering you?" She scoots closer.
--
He lets out a terrified squeak and quickly moves underneath a child's bed in an empty house.

Vin frowns and watches Lindsey depart. "Where is Bradley?"
---
"No. No." The tree shudders.
---
An Edan appears next to him! "...Huh." He peers around.

Nat thinks for a long moment. "Bradley?"
--
She hugs him.
--
List clutches the lamp and stares at Edan. He manages to talk in a gravely whisper. "Y-you are.. the djinn?"

"I don't know." He shrugs.
--
"It's okay."

He nods hurriedly.

"Oh." She looks dissapointed.

He clings to her.

"Great! Now, could you answer a question for me?"

"Is he a friend of yours?"

She pets his hair.

He bites his lip. "I.. suppose.."

"Yes. He usually comes with Lindsey."
---
"...It's my birthday."

"Terrific! So. Why are we under a bed?"

'I have been at the Cervelli house for several weeks and have not seen him."
--
"Is that why this is happening?"
--
He swallows. "It is safe. For now."

"Did something happen to him?"
---
"I don't know."
---
"I see!" He peeks out into the room.

"I have not been told."
--
She smiles and reaches into her bag. She produces a little black box and holds it up for him. "I got this for you. For your birthday."
--
They are in a small girl's bedroom, according to the decorations. It is pretty dark since no one is at home. List bites his lip again. ".. We should move.. again. I'm afraid."

"Oh." Another sad face.
---
"You did?" He looks at the box.
---
"Of what? Pink?"
