Talarius~FC~Aneesha~Ven~AMB: There are likely better ones to come<br />

Akab, this part of Our route is at least well travelled. Did You find out any<br />

more from that Stranger who “fell” into Your hands?<br />

Jè£naté¤Veñdara¤G: Nay, it was strange, My Men reported that He was<br />

incoherent, almost terrified, but would add no more than was in that note.<br />

I looked again at the scrap of rence the General’s Guards had brought<br />

Tera as darkness fell. Rather than travel for another two ahn in almost<br />

Feeling somewhat fatigued after the journey and the watch; I headed for<br />

the wagon and some rest.<br />
