Sarilyn laughed as she watched the young Candidates chattering,
and it reminded her of Xylian a bit. Especially her meeting with Hallie,
and their growing friendship...*after* he'd set her down a knotch or two on
her attitude problems.
"Maybe you'll see a few things you don't expect tomorrow," she
added with a grin and a wink towards Eth'n. "And one day, maybe you'll hear
about my 'other half'. Well, my other name, anyhow. I rarely use it execpt
in cases of when diplomacy is needed."
"Yeah!," Darla piped in, "she's a real lady! Owwww!" She turned
a mock glare at Sari who had delivered a rather sharp poke to her ribs.
"Yes, and perhaps you'll see another fight tomorrow as well.
Though I'm hoping Darla will be better prepared for my moves."
