**********************
The two cheetahs spotted a figure up ahead. The person was walking slowly
down the hallway. Edmund wrapped a hand around the hilt of his sword for a
moment before he recognized the new arrival. "Nest!" Edmund exclaimed. "It's
good to see you!" He walked up to the lion. "How are you faring?"
The mage looked dirty and a little tattered and worn but otherwise all
right. "I am all right. I had a little altercation underground but it was
nothing I couldn't deal with," he said sounding more calm then he actually
felt.
"What happened?" Stealth queried. "What did you fight?"
"I encountered, " Nestorius said and paused. "Something unpleasant."
"Unpleasant?" Stealth responded. "You mean something nasty that wanted
you dead."
The mage nodded. "That sums it up succinctly."
"What was it?" The paladin questioned.
"I don't know but it's dead now. I've grown weary of exploring dark
places," the noble lion commented. "Let's get back into the sunlight."
End part 8
Well, at least they found each other again!
And the scene with Misha jumping in the food dispenser reminded me of
a similar scene in a Xavier Butler book, where humans being studied
by aliens were trying to find a way out and one of them squeezed into
a similar slot; it did not end so well for him. In other words,
Misha needs to be a bit more careful!!
May He bless you and keep you in His grace and love,
