Picture of Faerin to the side
......
Dawn breaks sooner than I hoped...I wake with a start sweet pouring down my face and back plastering my night clothes to my body..I just had a vividly realistic dream of myself fighting the demon Rukka and his monstrous creatures...Just as it seemed he would overpower me I woke up..
....
Heart pounding,trying to catch my breath I glance over to where Riyani was.She stirs and her eyes become clear."Let's get started Tharia..We have a hectic day ahead..Best we start straightaway.."..she says while lifting her tail out of the water.

.....

As soon as her tail is out of the water it changes into two fabulously sculpted legs. She dries of and put on fresh clothes(picking out of my meagre belongings)
.....
As I get out of bed I hear a buzzing in my head..Turning slightly to the side I see a small ball of light that quickly grows bigger..with a flash of a light Faerin stands before me..all faerin light and bright colourful sparkly bits surrounding her...
....
Good morrow Tharia..Our journey begins sooner than anticipated as the evil force that is Rukka thirst for vengeance..even now he is plotting
your capture..I beg of you be not so languid in your preparation ..Master..we need to hastily departure..
....
I quickly don my warrior outfit and gather my knives,sword and bow and arrow."..Yes Faerin I am dressing as quickly as I can ..I assure you I am not being tardy on purpose. ..".. I reply to Faerin's heartfelt plea...
.....

"However I still have to acquaint myself with the contents of my chest..Perhaps there in lies a weapon or something that will help me to slay Rukka and free Zogryi..
...
I hurry into the backroom and throw open the lid of the chest..A blinding light erupts and throws me skidding on my behind across the floor..The light so bright that I am unable to open my eyes in the slightest. ...Then a booming voice that make the room shake shoots towards my..already paining. ..ears..
.....
Tharia..descendent of the Warrior King Asul..daughter of Thurston crown prince of the clan of Zahn and rightful princess of the Zahn clan kingdom..I am Melasci..I have prepared this chest many years ago to aid you in fulfilling your destiny...Before you is the sword of truth..With this you must plunge through Rukka's black,lying heart..the cloak of hope that will give you warmth throughout the night and cool you down during the day..A vial of Zogryi's pure blood from when he was still an angel...This blood will heal the most mortal wounds and can only be used twice...Lastly a map that will show you Zogryi's exact movement in the form of a blue circle..I wish you well on your journey..May you succeed in this harrowing endeavour and fulfill the legend that is your birthright....
....
After a while I could hear him no more and I tentively open my eyes to peek...He vanished quietly with not a sound warning me of his exit... .
....
Hurriedly I take everything out of the chest..I slide the sword into my sling and carefully place Zogryi's blood in my satchel...throwing the cloak around my shoulders...grabbing the map..I walk out of the room...We prepare our horses..fill it with supplies and enough water in the cart for Riyani's benefit..Faerin shrinks down to pocket size and make herself comfortable in the horse's hair.. Greeting my father one last time..Riyani,Faerin and I slowly head east..per the map's direction...
....
I need a few pics to add to my Tharia collection..I can't seem to figure out how she must look..Any ideas welcome. Hope your still enjoying my book.Please comment
