*Cat's eyes flutter open, and she's pleased to note the slashes have healed shut and her leg feels much better. As she stands and walks a bit, she notices her limp is quite reduced. She goes to her pack and pulls out her leather ground covering, a couple lengths of flannel, her soap(eucalyptus spearmint) and her brushes. Piling everything and creating a bundle, she walked over to Alida, and slid under her wing, retrieving Drake, then headed into the jungle a ways, focusing on the sound of a small waterfall echoing off a pool of water*

~in a circle of creatures, great and small, a female dreams~ *as the light fades, Alida finds herself in a great, rainbow-stricken hall lined with portraits of those long passed, the silver-clad beings beside her motioning to go on as she pauses to recover from her shock and awe, walking beside the great beings as they glide down the hall, the end never seeming to draw closer as they speak, their voices echoing and tinkling like bells, teaching her what they intend to give* Our child........... These are the faces of the grandest good........ The better of the best.......... Once, the additions of this hall grew rapidly, in a time when beings did not hate, fear, or fight one another....... When words of friendship were exchanged by the hour....... However, the expanding has now begun to lessen, showing us the world's good are beginning to dwindle..... The world is changing once again...... The world whispers proficies of destruction and chaos...... The creatures of the world have withdrawn from one another, mislead and wrong about any other than their own kin.... But the world is still whole and the creatuers within it are still bretheren to one another, no matter the differences between them.... the good must be kept and taught to continue..... Do you understand?....... *Alida nods as she memorizes every word, their voices enticing and commanding* Very good....... You must fight for those who would not do the same for you........ Ahhh, you wonder why..... And I will tell you..... You must fight for them because it is what is right....... For while your lands prosper, others have failed and died...... War is abundant in many areas of the world, slavery is on the rise one more..... But, you have begun a healing that the world will need to survive...... You must continue and expand it if the land is to recover from its growing terror...... Once they see such a great and ingreedy deed performed by one they know nothing of or more than their own kin, perhaps they will see the error of their ways and turn to follow you, adding themselves to your cause.... Yet you still doubt... That is good, it tells us you have an open mind and weigh the odds against you and those that favor you..... Let me elaborate a little..... Even if they see nothing to fear, try to convince them otherwise, for their downfall lurks not far in the shadows, biding its time..... We have bought you here to warn you, to teach you more of the things you will use.... It is time you learned what is needed to gain the ability to undo the evil in the land..... *and so, they begin to teach and school her in ways long thought forgotten: guidance and skills in arms, powers and spells to unlock, ways to help strengthen her body by meditation, lessons to wisen her mind further than the wisest wise man or brightest scholar; and in what seemed like days, the beings call for hault, standing before her, looking down upon her greatly, extending a golden box in their arms* Child Alida, you have progessed faster and further than any other before you........ We thus proudly bestow upon you this amulet...... The Amulet of Beginning..... This token proves you are worthy of such a great and noble cause...... Take it and may you remember your oaths...... Perhaps one day, your portrait will display proudly at the Great Head of the Grand Hall...... *as she clasps the trinket around her neck, the vision fades, leaving her to examine the beautifully etched metal, her mind swirling with knowledge and mixed questions*



( stressed damnit........ stressed stressed stressed crying I know i forgot things from the first and added things I didn't have..... stressed stressed sweatdrop )

*her eyes snap open and her head shoots up as she feels Cat slide under her wing and take Drake for a bath, sighing as she sees who it is and watches her go, folding her torn wing in and yawning, tongue tip curling; she looks around the camp and stiffly tries to stand, finding she was much more sore than in pain, her wounds having healed shut nicely overnight*

* After cleaning up, Cat makes her way back to shore to get Drake. Quickly discarding his clothes, she carries him back into water, ignoring his grumbling. She sets him on a rock that has a 8 inch bowl like depression, full of water warmed by the sun. She scrubs him well, gently teasing and singing to to him as she cleans his fur, finally getting him to smile and laugh. After he's well soaped, she picks him up and lazily swims around the pool, keep their heads above water, rinsing Drake off. She stands for a moment, dipping him back to rinse his head, then goes back to gently swimming around the pool*

*Cats ears flick back and forth as she picks up crunching noises along the trail* Hello?
