*In the afternoon, Annika makes her way down to the outpost with several guards accompanying her in green and blue tabards. One of the guards is carrying a large knapsack with a bedroll attached. Annika looks around and after a few moments asks those nearby if they have seen Donovan, Corbyn or Captain Robin.*

Shale greets her and looks over the men and the situation, "Hail. I believe that Donovan was nearby. I was asking him if he had seen Incarious, and if we might make a slight detour on the way home, just a few moments ago. I take it these men are your armed escort and that the bedroll is because your thinking of returning to Final Haven with our troup?"

"Lady Annika, it is good to see you well."

*Kels smiles at her, and gives her a deep bow*

"I trust all is well now in Frostfell."

*Annika smiles and nods to both Shale and Kels, then turns back to Shale to answer his question:*

"Yes, I am to escort you at least a week out and, of my own accord, plan on traveling the entire length of the trip to at least see you all back safely to Haven and perhaps to even stay with you a while as it seems I have much to learn and new skills that are required for me to learn."
*Annika's words seem weary and uninspired.* "I have already spoken with Donovan and he has agreed that it may be best that I travel with you, while he has extended the hospitality of your House."

*steps forward* My lady Annika I am sure Donovan and Lord Corbyn are discussing the travel plans as we speak. In the meantime I would like to thank you and your people for the hospitality they have shown me these past few days and I hope I was of some use in these past few days during the troubled times.

I too shall be traveling back to Haven with you and these fine people, I believe they may be able to answer the questions I have from my broken memory.

*looks around at any assembled Haven people* And I would like to extend my hand in thanks and friendship to all for letting me aid you in the previous days. I hope to get to know all of you now and in Haven.

*Kidwynn approaches the group grabbing whatever last minute items had been left behind. She at firsts head over to where Drake is tied up to check on him and whispers in his ear. She then moves over to where Kels is ready to move out and scout ahead.

When she sees Lady Annika, she gives her a smile and a nod and then just keeps alert looking for any signs of trouble until all have been assembled.*

Shale nods to her as though over the course of their stay his rancor and paranoia has melted away, "Indeed, and I am sure there is a great many things that you will teach us on the long, and depending on Eli's tenacity and opptimism quite possibly Sisyphean, trek back to the Lands of Final Haven. If you are in need of anything I am at your service, do not hesitate to seek my council." He bows.

He turns to Ian, "Ahh yes. I do not envy your mental turmoils, and regret that on bad days Haven may only compound your headache. But, you have proven a valuable friend, and it is our fortune to have stumbled upon eachother again." Shale offers Ian his hand.

I thank you Shale, I only hope the rest of the Phoenix feel the same.. It feels right being here with you, Donovan and the rest. It feels like home.

*A board shoulder Avaina with red and black feathers walks up looks around. Than bows to Lady Annika with a gentle smile. Nods to Kidwynn, and the rest.*

"Lady Annika if you have need of blade I am Neshca of Captian Steels Guild. An if you have need of anything come ask an I shall make ready what I can."

*He bows takes a step backwords, than looks around for his guild mates.*

*Donovan emerges from the woods near the outpost carrying his sword and shield. His armor appears hastily mended and dried blood covers his cloak and tunic. He strides over to a nearby trough and splashes some of the cold, clear water over his face and hands.*

Shale walks over to Donovan, "Sir, you seem to have either seen battle or something more serious... Perhaps the matter we discussed earlier?"

McEwan stumbles into view, look blearyly around, nodding vaugly to a few of his companions, then lets out a great sigh

"Top o' the morning to ya all. A moon's hike here, a wee bit o' a tussle and a moon's hike back. I no be complanein', but I be a'missin' me bed."

*Edgar walks out of the far cabins with what little gear he has. A smile sweeps across his face as the sun strikes it. You see the golden glow of the sun bounce off his gold and black Valkyn"Vi face. He smiles as he nods to all.*

"Greetings everyone has anyone seen Lord Corbyn and Lady Robin? If so could one of you direct me to where they might be."

Shale casually quips over his shoulder thumbing over his shoulder, "Might be out fighting yetti... You can check, but I'll be waiting here."

*Donovan wipes the water from his face and turns to Shale.*

"Just out for a morning walk."
