Fiesty starts her Journey

Copper waited at Fiesty’s burrow entrance for her to do some last-minute packing. He joked with the scout he had picked to help him guard his aunt on their way to Calenhad.

Tobo: “I am packed and ready. Me dad gave me his own sword fer the trip!”
Copper: “That right? That were big of him.”

Copper and Tobo bowed to the guard and Fiesty saw a glitter in Copper’s eye that made her sigh.

They proceeded through the River Lands country and passed by farms and fertile fields. The wind was balmy and the flowers fragrant in the Druid King’s lands. At one point Fiesty could see Kat’s Gypsy Wagon in the distance and yearned to visit with the elusive lady. But she was committed to her errand and time was precious. Soon they crossed the Memorial Bridge and were in Calenhad. The guard guided them down a path to a handsome home by a beautiful waterfall. Fiesty knocked on the door...
