-----"Right then. Let's be off." Sol says as he rides eastwards, following the sounds of Lord Howrun's troop.
-----Raven nods, "Right behind you, friend."
-----"The Fury of the Rager is still about!" Lovan says as everyone starts off, "There are those who must face the Rager's Wrath! I feel it in my bones!" Lovan looks livid with an almost mad expression.
-----"They are to be dealt fairly with," Romney replies though it doesn't seem to faze the Storm Priest. "By the wisdom of the Holy Redeemer, if evil rears its head, I will not stand in your way." Lowly, he adds, "In the memory of those who have fallen, I will fight for honor."
-----"The Hunt . . ." Garrison says letting the words hang in the air.
-----"Our pack has been a strong one," Rinda suddenly says, "We have brought down the Prey! I am honored to Hunt with Hunters . ." Here she looks at Garrison, "Brothers," Rinda looks at Sol and then at Raven as she finishes with, "and the one I love."
-----As they continue to ride, it slowly begins to rain.
-----Sol breathes the air in deeply and looks up at the sky as the rain falls. As the party continues east, the warrior looks at Lovan and says, "Yer right Lovan. There are more who must face th' Great Rager. An' their time will come, but fer today an' fer th' next small while it's done. Let th' storm clouds gather anew a'fore we head west in th' coming week...Then we'll have a chance t'bring th' fury in Strator's name. As well as th' Hunt...an' fer Shema."
-----As the rain continues to fall, the heroes follow the progression of elves and hunters on toward the east. Soon they pass a large wooded hill on their right and meet a trail road that runs east and west. Ahead of them now they can see a large field dominated by a small lake.
-----Sol, Raven and the others watch Lord Howrun lead his troop along the road where it leads on into an area dominated by scrub vegetation. Beyond that at about a mile, the trail vanishes between another dense tree line.
-----Suddenly to their left on the path, a light blue colored smoke is seen. The wisps flow slowly over the road and appear to thicken. Just as Sol and Thunder pull close to it, a rider is seen to emerge onto the path.
-----Everyone can see the unique white coat of Marlexana as the strange steed comes into view. Her eyes blaze with the peculiar blue glow that seems to die as the wisps of fog fade.
-----Sarah sits atop her horse with her dark cloak about her shoulders. The young mage seems to shine under the dull dreary sky as yellow and golden motes of magic play about her delicate form. The rain appears not to touch the magical horse or her mistress.
-----As the last of the curious smoke fades from sight, the raindrops suddenly adopt an azure tone. The gentle rain feels comforting and as the adventurers look at each other they notice the redness of their wounds wash away.
-----Especially Raven and Sol appear a bit more fortified in the strange shower. As the men touch where deep and painful wounds had been inflicted, they find the skin there healed and whole.
-----Lovan raises one eyebrow and casts a curious glance skyward as the rain loses its temporary coloration. Rinda smiles at Sarah's reappearance and then continues focusing on the road ahead with Raven.
-----Wearing a strange, serene smile, Sarah nods towards the group. "I was thinking about bringing a brass band but I decided that would be overdoing it." Her smile breaks into a grin as she catches sight of Sol. She nudges Marlexana over to him and rides next to the young Gorian.
-----Already feeling an understanding type of wonder at the rejuvenating rainfall, Sol's visage quickly turns to elation at Sarah's return. A surprising blush, though small, unmistakably colours the warrior's cheeks and his answering grin threatens to break his face. When Sarah reaches his side, Sol reaches out and takes her hand and continues to ride to Xyl as such.
-----Raven looks up at the sky in wonder. Raven smiles at Sarah, "Sarah, you could never over do it. Welcome back." Raven, seeing that Sol and Sarah most likely want to be alone, continues moving with the group.
-----Grinning happily, Sarah nods in response to Raven, and squeezes Sol's hand as he takes hers.
