Narym walked quickly to the edge of the forest where Fallow was waiting for her. 'Fallow, old friend,' she sent as she caught sight of him in the distance,' I know you don't like to fly much at night, but I need your help.' 'You have it, as always,' he replied. He lifted his huge head and fixed Narym with his deep blue eyes, that looked like black pools in the night. She reached him and stretched up to touch his handsome head. 'I can't locate Lily or the captain,' she said as she scrambled onto his back. 'There's still a damper on my senses in the town. I thought, if you and I were to take to the air, we might find them.' She held on tight as the dragon launched into the air. It was always an exhilarating experience, a bonding moment when she and Fallow became one. Narym sent him love through her touch and he soared into the night sky in response. ' Not too near the castle tho,' she warned. 'Don't want to tip them off.' She relaxed her mind, knowing that Fallow would take care of her safety on his broad back, and concentrated on finding Lily and the captain.

Lily had followed Vlad from the club at a distance, her suspicions aroused when he had quietly slipped out of the meeting. She had followed him to the outskirts of the town and into the forrest. Although Lily's night vision was excellent they had only been in the forrest for a few minutes before she had lost sight of him, worried about getting lost should she wander any further Lily had decided to make her way back. 'Where does he think he is going? ' she thought to herself angrily 'How can he disappear on us like this when we need him , hell.. how can he disappear on me leaving things the way they are?' Lily strode angrily back towards the club "Fine , I didn't need you before you got here and I sure as hell don't need you now" she muttered under her breath. She was so lost in her own thoughts that when Fallow landed not far infront of her accompanied by a very angry looking Narym she almost jumped out of her skin.

Narym finally tracked Lily down halfway between the forest and the town. She was so worried about her friend, that by the time she had her in her sights, her fear displayed itself in anger. She jumped down from Fallows back and launched straight into a furious tirade. " Where the hell have you been?" she yelled. " I've been looking everywhere for you. Vlad has gone missing,I didn't know if he'd done anything to you!" She was shaking, her heart beating furiously. " Lily, what were you thinking?" She looked at her friend and her anger ran out. " Hell Lily...."

Lily fought back the tears "I'm sorry Narym , I really am, but I saw him leave and I had to follow him, and he went into the forrest and then i lost him ...." she took a deep breath "I don't know where he is going or if he is going to be back" As she continued she started to cry "And i need to pull myself together because everyone is relying on me and I really dont know where he has gone............." Lily stopped rambling and looked at Narym tears streaming down her face. "I'm sorry " she said quietly.

Narym wrapped her arms around Lily and held her tight. " It's ok, hush now, it's ok." Once Lily's body stopped shaking, she let her go and stepped back. " Ah, yes well, don't do that again, you scared me half to death!" She regained her composure and managed a tremulous smile. "Um, Kadens handing out free weapons back at the club. Might be an idea if you took advantage of his offer." She showed Lily her new sword and crossbow. She thought for a moment and then said," Why don't you go back to the club? Fallow and I will see if we can find that damn muscle bound bounty hunter!" She walked back to Fallow calling out, " Tell the Wizard I'm still trying to fix it!"

Lily smiled at Narym gratefully and pulled herself together, taking a deep breath she said "Be careful Narym , there is something about that forest that really gives me the creeps" Waiting until Narym had mounted Fallow she then turned and headed back towards the club. 'Now is not the time to be worrying about Vlad my girl' she thought to herself as she hurried along 'Now is the time to be worrying about urself, tonight isn't going to be easy and you need to focus'

After sending to Kaden that Lily was on her way back, Fallow circled slowly over the forest, but Narym could not locate the errant captain. 'Let's widen the circle,' she sent to the dragon. ' Let's try the lakes.' Fallow circled high at first, to remain unseen, but still nothing. 'How is he avoiding me?' she asked.' He has no magic.' ' Ah, but the forest has,' Fallow replied. ' A magic all of it's own. And it is spreading to this area also.' Narym closed her eyes and concentrated. ' All I can feel is nothing. No life. No animals. Nothing.' They flew lower, hoping to pick up the captains trail, but there was no sign. Shaking her head in frustration, Narym asked Fallow to take her back to town. ' If your keen eyes hadn't seen Lily below us, we would still be looking for both of them!' They landed and she slid from his back. ' I'm going to the club. Thank you, my friend, for your help.' ' At least we found little Lily,' he returned and settle down to rest. Yes, thank the gods for that at least, she thought and made her way quickly back .
