"Oh and then I have to talk to you about something too," Eris said ominously as Cynthia came running into the room.
"I'm ready Mama," she said with a smile.
"Minxy are you coming too, or are you going to stay behind and take a nap?" Eris asked.
Minx stood to attention and came over to the three women.
"I guess she's comin' whiff us Mama," Cynthia laughed.
When Zehn came home, they'd have to go and find her her own familiar. One she can bond with. I don't mind sharing Minx, but I want Cynthia to be able to pick and share a bond with her own too.
The three of them started walking out of the house into the town.
~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~
Liam, Zehn, Marcus, Cain, and a few others were in the stable preparing to head out. Liam and the other men had packed some supplies and goods that they were prepared to trade with the other town. Casryth had also given them some information to give to the town, offering to cast them a magical wall like ours for protection.
"Zehn, have you ever ridden a horse before?" Liam asked.
Cain started laughing. "It's okay if you haven't in a long time, we can give you a few pointers. The first time I started riding after seven years of not, my boot got stuck on the saddle and I was dragged by my horse for a good 50 feet. I don't want to repeat that. It was terrible at the time, but I can laugh about it now."
