((Is it okay if we skip to the night so I can do something with Sage?))

[Devon]

((Yes))

[Kender Bard]

That night a dream came to Sage...

Sage stood in a dark room, the only illumination coming from a faint glow from everyone present. There was a pale woman, white haired, standing in front of the line of people. Each person standing in front of her was chained and each bore a robe belonging to that of every Force belief. The white haired woman went up to each person and stabbed them. For each person she stabbed, their inner light went out and the room became a little darker. By the time she reached the last person, the room was sent to pitch blackness.

Sage wakes up with a scream. Sweating and breathing heavily he even shakes a little. The others were awakened by his noise and his four friends were soon at his bedroom door. Kento and Rowen took to checking around the room to make sure no one was in there, Cye handed Sage a towel and Ryo stood near his bed to see if he was okay. "Whats wrong Sage?" Ryo asked with his face full of concern.

Sage took a moment to calm his breathing down and wipe off some of the sweat before answering, "I had a nightmare..no...a vision a really horrible vision."

[Kender Bard]

Kyss was there as well, standing in the doorway and holding her robe tightly shut. She approached Sage's bed as well. "Do you think you can talk about it?"

[Devon]

Cye stood beside Kyss and put an arm over her shoulder. Rowen and Kento, joined Ryo by Sage's side. Glancing between all of his friends and at Kyss, Sage nodded his head slowly. "Uh, I'll tell you. I'm pretty sure it was a vision,while I was away in Sensatia I became a priest of Etaf and I guess this is her way of saying welcome." Sighing, he rubbed his head and recounted the vision he had witnessed.

[Kender Bard]

"That's terrible!" Kyss whispered, her eyes full of pity for Sage and quiet horror. "Why would Etaf give you such a horrible vision?"

[Devon]

Sage shook his head and moved to get out from beneath his covers. "Etaf sees me fit enough to receive a warning." Standing up he moved past his friends who all seemed to stare at him with the same concern. Going over to his desk, he lit his lamp and took out a quill and parchment. "I'll talk to you all in the morning, I need to write down what I saw." Sage turned his back to his friends and began to write.

Ryo tapped Rowen and Kento on the shoulder and nodded towards the door. Cye led Kyss away as well, "Don't worry. Sage will be fine Kyss."

[Kender Bard]

"I've never known a priest of Etaf," Kyss confides, casting a concerned look back over her shoulder. "If that's what it's like, then it must be a hard life indeed. Why would he enter to such a priesthood?"

[Devon]

Cye shrugs and replies somberly, "I don't know this is our first time hearing about this." Ryo glances at Kyss and comments, "Sage has always been the contemplative one. For him being a priest of Etaf probably gives his mind the exercise he needs."

[Kender Bard]

"Let's hope it all works out then..."

The next morning, Kyss woke up extra early. She was hoping to see if Sage needed anything, be it consoling or simply breakfast. Moving carefully out of bed, she pulled her robes about herself and tiptoed to his room.

[Devon]

Sage is door was ajar, inside she could easily see that he had let the lamp run until the flame tired itself out. He still sat in the same spot at his desk with his head down softly snoring in his sleep. It was obvious he had been up the entire night writing down the vision he saw.

[Kender Bard]

Kyss moved over to try and rouse him, easing the paper out from under his head. "Sage," she called out quietly, hoping not to startle him, or worse - interrupt a potentially important dream.

[Devon]

Sage stopped snoring and slowly lifted his head. Yawning he turned around in his chair and glanced at Kyss. "Oh..good morning Kyss. Is something the matter?" Looking down to his desk he rolled up the parchment he had been writing on and tied a ribbon around it.

[Kender Bard]

"I was just worried about you," Kyss admitted. "I thought I'd get you to your bed. The desk is not a comfortable pillow after all." She hovered nervously about him. "Do you need anything?"
