Adapting


Days in Ar.

She did feel lost. Ar was not like either Darmoth of the mountains or Rarir
so close to the sea...so far from the plains it was not funny. There were tall
Towering buildings, huge markets that seemed to go on and on, and a lot of
strange people...

Eliza would indeed admit she was lost tin her own right but some how the
small woman would work it out. She always did adapt to everything tossed at her
even when her sons left to be trained she adapted..as a woman should.

A funny thing was the little physician loved hiding up in the trees on the
property to write or make sketches This was her time alone a solace for her in
the day she could pray, meditate, or just think. She needed this time just to be
herslef.

Other times she dressed properly as a free woman of her caste, coverings
for her braided hair, and veils to match to go out on the streets to explore.
Yesterday poor Lea did not even recognize her. Eliza did buy a few things from
some shops for she only brought a little bit of clothing. She made sure it was
proper and not to offend. At home she was more great to be herself a Tuchuk sort
to say.

Many scrolls brought along with books on more medical things lined along
her sleeping couch though most times she would lay on the floor to read by lamp
light till she fell alseep. She wanted to keep up with things in life to be
prepared. There were some nighst she would just go sit outside when sleep evaded
her.

Liza did take time to pen scrolls to be sent to the old man who watched
over mother, and to each of the stables to be ready for Emma's audit. One would
find the scroll her sons were in and they would know where she was. Each scrolls
seal with a wax insignia from her brother's home .There was no one else to
contact really though she longed to see Ina again here in Ar.

For now more exploring and scrolls to those who could get her supplies for
the shop.

Milo would take car of it all for her. Emma would think they were heading to the meeting point to send her back to Kar when in fact they were headed to Darmoth. Emma would be held now to go to three of the five stables and farms to
pull the correct counted amount of trained mountain kaiila for Cibrian's order.

It would be days later Emma caught on she scream and cursed but Milo was so use to it, he waved it off by smacking her on the arse and telling her to go to her wagon. He laughed " Get use to it, your not going back to Kar"

She growled and slanted her gaze at him angrily. "All my personal and
business things are there!"

He chuckled lifting the massive black arms to fold over his chest. " Eliza already sent ships to retrieve your things. So Lady Emma, Ass in wagon ! "He repeated once more.

Emma felt defeated and went to the wagon in tears. If only she could understand this was for her safety and her sister truly loved her.

Its been forever in a day since I thought of even leaving the clinic to venture anywhere. I have this inner twinge panging at my mind for some reason to go to the fair. So what did I do? I consulted my cards, to see what my path was.....New beginnings ..... This intrigued me to make plans...so I spoke to my farm manger, the staff at the clinic those who worked in the haruspex wagons...
Two hands later our journey began.
I felt at home has the Ships moved to the meeting spot that would bring the wagon and herds that left before to gather. At this point I stood on the rocks watching the sea sing It would be a time before I saw her again but right now it was time to show the world though tragic things happen we survive.
The flapping of wings could be heard above as I lower my hood to allow the darkness of river free. One hand lifted to block the sun as I watched the tarnsman bring their beast to the ground. I did laugh for I could hear my sister already grumbling about flying. She hates it so.
Emma looked the same young naive girl I left in Kar. She brushed her hands over her robes and gruffed at the men handling the tarns. Once our eyes locked she ran to me locking me in a hug. "Well hello little sister" I whispered softly to her ear. "I missed you"
She looked up at me as tears slid from her snake colored eyes. "I missed you as well. Its been to long. I am excited to spend time with you. The fair will be great now we do not have to deal with tarns. " She smiled beneath her veils.
"Well then lets get this caravan rolling. Come I have a wagon ready for us." A hand gestured to the main Tuchuk made wagon that had greens and blues upon it like foliage. We walked together then I told Emma to get in while I spoke with my lead guards. Soon we were on our way again.
New Begginnnings.
