She must've been exhausted, because she fell asleep in my arms. I started walking towards the forest, sure that Iavas would follow. We had to find serobi, for if we left him in the forest, he'd be alone, and abandoned. He might be useful in the future. As soon as we found him, though, we'd have to set out immediately for Desolace. This problem of the mystery stranger had to be dealt with soon, if we were to find draku when he re-awakens...

"D-draku..."she whispered again, her body stretched and chewed on her bottom lip. She breathed in a deep shaky breath. Chewing on her bottom lip, she let out a gasp. Her eyes reopened and she stared around with wide fearfull eyes"H-he's in pain...W-we need to help him!"she wimpered, bringing her knees to her chest, even tho Eleyym's grip may losen at he sudden movement"W-werre are you...".

Her outburst took me by surprise, but i held firm. "Lecta, whats wrong?" i asked..What could be happening? The process was supposed to be painles....unless....Maybe he had already awakened, and was growing rapidly, from child to the age he was when he....Perhaps he's already awoken...But where?

"Eleyym...H-he's still w-watching m-me..."she weezed, her body trembled with worry"H-he hurts...H-he wants to be with me..."she was just delusional perhaps. Partialy in a daze she looked around with wide eyes, her stomack clawed hungrily at her stomack, but she didnt want to eat. Nor did she notice the clawing hunger"W-werre is he...I-I want him here w-with me...".

"Lecta, lecta, it's alright. He's fine", i consoled. I realized now that i'd been lost in my own thoughts for awhile, and just remembered that she'd been sleeping in my arms. She must be having nightmares...I was surprised i wasn't having them myself. But hope still remained. As soon as we found Draku, she'd feel alot better, but for now, we couldn't start looking until we found serobi. Where could he be?....

"N-no! H-he's calling to me..H-he's crying now..."she stuttered, wiggling around in his grasp"I-I want t-to help b-but I c-cant reach him!"she cried, burrying her face in her hands and screamed out in frustration and fear"W-we must find him!"she demanded, staring up at Eleyym with furious eyes"H-he's scared...".

"Lecta, it's alright....really. He's fine" i tried to shake her awake, gently, "Wake up lecta, please...he's fine" i said again. We couldn't continue like this...either Lecta came to her senses, or she went back to sleep...

She stared up at him with wide glazed eyes"W-we must find him! I-I want t-to feel him aga-again..."she gasped, her body struggled in his grip, she slid away and hit the ground with a soft thud. She curled up into a ball on the ground, crying silently, her face hidden in her hands"D-draku!!"she cried out, her body shook uncontrolably"W-we need to find him!".

Obviously she was having nightmares...But what could i do? I tried singing her back to sleep again....
We couldn't leave serobi in the forest. We had to find him. But with lecta, frantic as she was, we wouldn't be able to get very far without stopping every once in awhile....My, this was confusing. Maybe...Maybe i could send the Guard Iavas to fetch serobi, while i stayed here and tended to Lecta. I wasn't sure how loyal he was, but chances are, he'd follow orders well enough. He was Captain of the Guard after all...That much i could tell from the lavender brooch on his neck...

She let out weak sobs, she turned on her back and stared up at Eleyym, her eyes werre beginning to clear up but tears still flowed out of her eyes like a never ending stream"I-I want h-him back Serobi..."she whispered, wipping her eyes, they slowly open and shut, blinking in an annoyingly slow pace"I-I want him back...I..I dont know what to do...I'm an empty shell...".

Obviously she wouldnt sleep again...So, time to try the latter
"Lecta, i promise you, we'll find him. Youll see him again. But we can't find him now, not while serobi is out cold somewhere in the forest..."i tried comforting her, "Please, you promised me you'd trust me, no matter what. You know that he's coming back. He may even be here already. Please, all you have to do right now is come with me...That's all" i said. Maybe we wouldn't need to send Iavas after all...

She stared with now clear eyes, she nodded slowly. Sitting on her knees and reached up like a child would seeing its mother"O-ok..."she whispered, her thoughts and soul werre confused, her older. More mature self was trapped inside the locked chest of her mind"I-I want to see him...I-I wonder if h-he looks the same..."she weezed, wrapping her arms around his legs and laughed childishly"I-I would like that allot...".

"I can't be sure. But we'll never find him if we stay here. Now lets go, we have to find serobi, alright? As soon as he's found, we'll set out to find Draku immediately", i told her. We did need to move. The letter could wait, because right now, Serobi was probably somewhere, wandering around the forest, confused, and disoriented. He may even be still unconscious. But we still needed to find him, to tell him what's happened at least. If he didn't want to go, then we'd leave him, but he must be told nonetheless..."Come on lecta, we'll be done soon", and with that, i picked her up gently again, and once more, started towards the forest....

"D-do y-you p-p-promice we w-will find him?"she asked, stared at him with questioning eyes, she pinched his nose and let out a laugh, clapping her hands together and gave him the casual puppy dog eyes"I-I c-c-c-cant wait!"Lecta stuttered, swinging her fear over his legs in a childish way. As if she was swimming"Draku! Draku!"she sang happily and giggled lightly.
