"Whatever horse suits you best, Luna," Flash agrees with a smile. "And I enjoy spoiling you. But if it makes you happy to repay me, I won't try and stop you."

[Kender Bard]

Luna was content with that arrangement. "How long until we get to Maelstrom?" Not that she wasn't enjoying the trip, but she liked to keep these things in mind.

"At this rate..." Flash pauses to think. "About an hour and a half, maybe two. Are you all right with that? If you need a break from riding, just let me know."

[Kender Bard]

"I'm not that delicate," Luna retorted. "That's fine with me. I was just curious, that's all." More seriously, she asks, "Uncle Flash, how real is this threat that we're running from? Do you think it really warranted a full scale migration like this?"

[Northen Light36]

Flash hesitates, then looks at Luna seriously. "Luna, can you make it so no one else can hear what we're saying, please?" he asks her.

[Kender Bard]

"Of course," she said, frowning with worry of what could be so important. Touching her sign, there was a faint distortion in the sound around them before it seemed to return to normal. "There - no sounds will pass farther than ourselves. What is it?"

Falsh sighes. "You were at Lya and Shadow's wedding. Do you remember Damien's little niece?" he asks. Without waiting for an answer, Flash continues, "Mirza is holding her hostage to force Damien to obey him. And if that wasn't enough, Lya's been kidnapped."

[Kender Bard]

Luna's hand flew to her mouth to stifle a gasp. "That's terrible... But at least now I understand. When we get to the palace, I'll do some divination and augeries. With a little luck, we might get a clue." Smiling now, she dispelled the sound-net.

Flash resists the urge to roll his eyes with some effort. "It's worth a try," he tells Luna, forcing a smile. As skeptical as he is of Luna's abilities, there's no harm in humoring her.
