Re: Village of Stars (Lenelle, Ostroga)
She shook her head. "None are injured, thank you for asking. And your apology is courteous, but not necessary. We understand you've had your own trouble, and appreciate your invitation."
Like Ostroga, she had lost much of her equipment, armor, and weapons. Fortunately, she had saved some of her personal belongings, including her religious texts.
The very worst loss had been her steed. She hated to think of the poor animal going to an unpleasant, watery death. Yet, she also gave her thanks for Ahbra's blessed Fortune, that this had not been her fate, as well.
It would have been nice to hang on to everything. But, for some reason, I try to inject a little bit of reality into these unreal stories...
As they walked, she wondered idly how much Ostroga, or the European Diomedes, knew about this place, where they were now, seemingly, to be guests.
