We then heard the resounding, "Pet nothing! She ate Thread yesterday at High Reaches..." which was said by Kylara. "What!? 'Ate Thread'? I don't understand?" asked Jaxom dumbfounded. "Sorry to interrupt, but that guard is announcing something," said I. "I can't hear him," answered a flustered Lord Jaxom. "Quiet," I yelled, but the dragons roared at the same time. No one heard me, but at least everyone was QUIET. The guard repeated that the Conclave of Lord Holders was to start. All Lords made haste to the Great Hall for the Conclave. "Lord Lytol is looking for me, so I'll see you in a few minutes." "I'm easy to find. I'm one of the four people wearing green, and look for my staff," I yelled to a rapidly departing young Ruathan Lord Holder. I found myself in a quandary, for I was now "alone" in a Hold I knew little about. I mean, Lytol may be sending Jaxom on an errand which would take him a while. After a few seconds (about fifteen) of pondering what to do, I heard a "sick" guitar sound off. I whirled around to listen, and then remembered the "conversation" between Brudegan (a Journeyman Harper who'd come to Telgar with his Master) and Master Robinton. I started walking to where Masterharper Robinton was. I had only made it a tenth of the way to where he was when I heard a piercing whistle. I hurried for though I may know where he was headed I hadn't a clue as to where that was located in the Hold. |
