The Enemy of my Enemy of my Enemy... er

[Devon]

"We'll have to figure out how Reave will best be able to help you," Trevor said to Shyamal. "Perhaps we can provide you a safe place to make your plans."

[Kender Bard]

"I've sanctuary already," Shyamal murmured with a small smile. If someone did come after him, he imagined he'd be safer in the depths of Naurorod where sand in all directions could help shake off a pursuer. "How many men were you willing to lend to me?"

[Devon]

"How many were you expecting to receive?" the leader asked. He didn't know if Shyamal wanted a small group of men or the better part of an army.

[Kender Bard]

Shyamal tried to figure out what would be an optimal number. "Hmm, well... I think.. I think six would be good. And if I can have a say in it, the more Minds the better. Winds are good too. Storms. Yeah those seem best." Minds for defense, Winds for stealth, and Storms for raw, quick power.

[Devon]

"My favored Wind is currently away on a trip, but I have a Mind I could suggest for the job. He is also a Storm. Reave isn't the best place to look for those types of fighters anyway. My personal guards are all of different signs, but as can be expected the majority of my people are Clears."

[Kender Bard]

"I understand and it's another reason while I will be continuing to petition more people for help," Shyamal agreed. "That being said, I'd appreciate the people you can recommend. How about I go see what else is available to me from other people and what I fail to turn up I can return and beseech you for?"

[Devon]

Trevor nodded and answered back, "That will be fine with me. If you'd like I can have one of my guards escort you and your party to an inn so that you can rest for a time."

[Kender Bard]

"Thank you," Shyamal replied with a smile. "I'd like that very much. Oh and one more thing.. what can you tell me about the Beastlands leader? I believe I will be heading there next."

[Devon]

"Ah Thavan," Trevor spoke, adjusting himself in his seat. "He is a tad young, still older than you though. He seems like a nice fellow, to me he looks kind of soft spoken at times, but he is doing very well right now. I do know for sure though that he is currently out of the Beastlands on a trip." Trevor didn't want to reveal where Thavan or Cascata were in case the news about the Firegem islands hadn't have reached Morilanta.

[Kender Bard]

Shyamal looked a trifle discouraged about that. "Ah, well then I suppose I will have to bypass the Beastlands on my circuit. I think I'll go to Humontis next then - is there anything you can tell me about them? I ask only so I do not make some critical error in my diplomacies."

[Devon]

"I've only met the new leader once since River died," Trevor told the young prince. "I don't know too much about her unfortunately."

[Kender Bard]

Shyamal let out a heavy sigh at that and nodded. "Thank you anyway, Sir Trevor," he murmured and rose, looking forward to having the chance to plan his next step in the comfort of an actual room rather than another tent.

[Devon]

Trevor called for Kento who nodded and came forward at Lord Trevor's request. "Yes sir do you need anything?" Trevor stood as well and replied, "Please show the Prince and his guests to the inn and make sure they get a nice room." Kento gave Trevor a quick salute and said, "Yes sir, no problem." Turning to the Prince the guard headed towards the door. "If you're ready to go Prince, follow me."
