The raft rocked rhythmically on the water as it traveled the river through the Hedge. Thorn was never comfortable with traveling off the path, it was dangerous and unpredictable, but his instincts for direction in the Hedge was never wrong, this was definitely the way they needed to go. Even though he could hardly remember, a feeling of familiarity seemed to imprint itself upon his mind. He could hardly believe he was going back, let alone willingly. Still, if there was ever a chance to pull this off, now was the time: *** "In three days? Are you sure?" asked Thorn, eyeing Lilith with the suspicion he always carried around her. She had been of great help to him in furthering his training, and preparing him the eventual fight for his freedom, still old habits died hard, and she was fae, so suspicion always seemed a necessity. "It is the best of time, Lord Wroden never misses a gathering such as this, he is much to vain and insists of showing off his newest toy in hopes to tarry favor from those above him." Thorn didn't bother asking what his newest toy was, knowing Fae it was never anything you wanted to hear about. "You will have until the witching hour before his return, so it is possibly the best chance you have to accomplish the deed." Thorn thought on this, there was no way he would be able to pull this off on his own, he would need to call in some favors. While his talent for deal making had faded with his magic, the few unrepaid favors that remained itched at his mind... *** Of course, he had ended up with a little more company then he had originally sought. Titan and Lil Devil had come to repay the favors they owed, the last of his favors dissolving as they past into the Hedge, but the others... ***** "Oooohhhh" said the small monkey as he rode the top of the pole that steered the raft down the rivers flow, "What's that! That looks tasty, I bet if you took the spike off of it it would wriggle all the way down..." It hadn't originally been his intention to follow, but the shiny thing had insisted on it. Of course it had happened to be Tobor's metal chasse, but still, it was very, very shiny. By the time he noticed him latched on, the portal had closed, leaving the crazy monkey along for the ride. "Someone keep him from grabbing it," said Lil Devil, the last one the monkey had grabbed had exploded. The monkey had loved it, but it had almost set the raft on fire. |
