Kira bounced her way into the dueling house, her normal happy self, excited to see others around this day. As she hopped her way down the stairs, some peculiar things were occurring. One man was bolting things down and two others began accusing her of stealing things. She had never met any of these people. Yet one of them called her by name. He insisted that she had told him it before, but knowing
that she had not yet spoken her name within this land, he had to be lying. A barage of angry words passed about the room, until at last she was informed that she could not even have a glass of water. She stormed out angrily. Only to be followed by a man claiming to be a cop. Cop? What is a cop? She wondered about this man. He wore a uniform, a lot like the guards back home. He was not mean to her like a guard would have been. He agreed
that the men in the dueling house were just being mean to her.
Later that day, her anger long since forgotten, she made her way back into the dueling house. There were lots of people. Tall people. Kira had yet to see anyone as small as her. Perhaps there are no little beings around here. Her bright eyes caught sight of swords swinging, which immediately brought her to the edges of the rings. She climped upon the ropes and swung on them, until she tumbled off. Her happy-go-lucky
attitude caused her to climb right back on the ropes. Her next tumble off, landed her right in the ring between two duelists. She scootched her way back from them, managing to fill her pants with sand. After what seemed like an eternity to the little kender, she finally freed her pants of all the sand. Than she got to meet the lady with the gold eyes. Kira was fasinated by thoses eyes. Sparkly gold. The lady introduced herself as Marit.
Marit's really big sword was nikked and Kira offered to help fix it, but she couldn't find the right thing to fix it with. Marit agreed to come back again so that Kira could fix her sword. Kira's thoughts however were soley on the lady's eyes. Pretty gold eyes....how to get the pretty gold eyes.. The lady left the dueling house and Kira followed behind her. Marit's long legs moved at a much swifter rate than Kira could follow. Having
lost Marit about town, Kira headed back to the dueling house again.
To Kira's delight there were still people in the dueling area. She spotted the fae from across the room. His little wings fluttering about as they sprayed fairy dust. Kira loves magic and fae are magic. She scurried over to touch the little wings. And to her surprise the boy offered to play with her instead of yelling at her for touching his wings. Tormay was the boy's name and he introduced Kira to Ajay. Ajay wore a uniform
too, but not like the one the cop was wearing earlier. Ajay was lots of fun. Kira couldn't help but notice that Ajay had one of those fancy Baron's rings on his finger. She liked meeting Ajay. Her and Tormay played about him most of the evening. Tormay had a worm for fishing and Kira slipped the worm down the back of Ajay's shirt. Laughing madly as Ajay squirmed about to retrieve the worm. Later, Tormay clapped his hands, forgetting that he
was holding the worm. The worm made mush in the little fae's hands. Kira encouraged Tormay to go give Ajay a hug before he cleaned his hands. Ajay got mad at the mess on his shirt, but he got over it quickly. Kira watched as Tormay grabbed an open bottle of whiskey to wash Ajay's shirt with. Then the silly little fae drank some of the whiskey. Shaking her head, laughing Kira bounced her way out of the dueling house. Oh how much fun some of
these silly people are. To think me to be a child just like Tormay. Those baron's rings are so pretty... I would love to get a hold of one of them. Kira's thoughts drifted as she wandered her way out into the forest.

Laughter!

Molleen read and laughed. She had opened Tormay's journal up and just had to laugh. Tormay wanted to surprise his mother, Tiny, by writing a journal and Molleen now held the surprise in her hands. She had promised Tormay she would check for spelling errors and go over them so that he could improve his writing. He worked hard at it because he wanted to impress Aislain who had told him she knew seven different languages. She laughed some more as
she read some more. She turned the page and began reading aloud:


********


Dear Journey,

Molleen taked me to the arena. There I saw that pretty lady. I call her Siddy. She let me hug her.

I saw Ajay. He ask me to go fisheng. He was workeng. but he sayd we could go afer he gets off work.

I think she told me that cause I mushed my worm and if I hug Ajay it cuold make me feel better. I hug him. But his chirt had dirt on it so I want to wipe it off. I put water on it. That wipe it off. But that water did not taste like water. I spit it out.

Moleen red her book. She likes the guard at the door. She told me to not tell anybody. I keep it a secret.

Bye, bye

Molleen laughed as she closed the journal. She didn't even realize that Tormay had actually drank some whiskey.
