 profile notes guests older host Climbing up on Solsbury Hill I could see the city lights Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close; I heard a voice Standing, stretching every nerve I had to listen; had no choice I did not believe the information Just had to trust imagination My heart going boom boom boom - peter gabriel >>the players: Enid:not your ordinary princess. Axel: fairy/changling Duncan:new acquaintence Xander:not a forgotten lover. Brother: to Enid. >friends readers book 1 book 2 17 When I awoke, there was a dew in the dale. The skies never looked better. And when I breathe now I don't feel the need to cough. It must have worked. Yet, I don't feel quite myself. I haven't felt that way in so long. Even when it was a strain just to getogether back for supper, everyone had other things on their mind. They knew the end was near. But father left. Then the brothers traveled across the sea.

"No to me," Axel said once I was up and about while he was dishing up the porridge. "You need to eat if you intend to be strong." "For what?" The porridge was green and ugly, but it smelled sweet. "What we must do?" He has a plan? Its a lot to go into now. But it has something to do with a special sword. A sword like no other sword. "We'll need it if we want to kill the dragon." The dragon.

"I never thought I'd hear someone with real witch's blood ever say such nonsense. Its part of your duty, you know." He must have eaten three bowls of that gunk and I'd hardly gagged down a spoonful of the sickening sweet soup. "My duty?" Had I missed something. "You know, slaying dragons and such." "And such?" "The dark creatures of the night." Training starts immediately.
