>(Time to head down, cricket)

>(Yes, Reekor says Pa'gan is already waiting on you in the dining hall)

>Trinale hurried a little faster. (Well I musn't keep him waiting, I guess)

>Trinale entered the dining hall and immediately spotted Pa'gan, who was

Pa'gan looks down to the young lady and smiles "Yes I think we
shall." Pa'gan took the small soft and delicate hand into his. Even he took
a moment to notice the size difference. Smiling he led her off to get their
food.
Pa'gan smiled as he walked up to the cook and got a back pack from
him and smiled.
Pa'gan looked down into Trinale's eyes and smiled mischeviously and
said "come on."
Trinale looked puzzled and tried to protest. But was quickly lead
from the dining hall by this large man.
In mere seconds they were outside the dining hall, and Pa'gan had
lifted Trinale and placed her on Reekor's back and climed up behind her.
Reekor turned his head on his long serpintined neck and looked at
Trinale. The sparkle in Reekor's blue eyes told her she had nothing to worry
about. But still she tried to talk with Reekor.
*What is going on?*
There was no reply from Reekor other than a slight mental snicker.
As Pa'gan settled in behind Trinale he froze in place senseing
Trinale trepidations. "I asure you my Lady that you have nothing to worry
about......you are and will be safe with me."
In the same instant Reekor rose gently into the air. Soon the three
of them are soaring higher and higher into the air. Soon Reekor levels off
and begins moving at an extreme rate of speed.
Pa'gan began to laugh much like a child. He had only hoped that
Trinale was enjoying this as much as he, his own emotion to overwhelming to
be able to read hers.
Soon they are landing in a small glade still within the Warren area
itself. Pa'gan jumped down from Reekor's back and then helped Trinale down.
He smiled into the young woman's face and lead her to a soft patch of grass
near the stream.
Pa'gan opens the back pack and produces a blanket that he spreads
out on the ground. "your table my lady." Pa'gan said as he held out his hand
to help Trinale sit on the blanket. Pa'gan then dug back into the back pack
and with all flourish he could muster took out a meal for two he had the
cook make for him.
As Pa'gan poured a golden liquid into the silver goblets he brought
he smiled and looked to Trinale, "I do hope you are finished for the day, I
have many question for you." After pouring the both drinks he on the blanket
across from Trinale and handed her one of the goblets while saying, "I hope
you like this......it is my own recipe."
As Trinale took a sip from the goblet Pa'gan looked at her and said,
"I thought you could use a little time away from your worries and
responsiblities." He smiled as he too took a drink.

NRPG: I didn't want to go too far into this without giving you a chance to
reply. If you wish, he will ask many mundane question about life in the
Warren, the laws, customs (especially about relationships) and anything else
you can think of. But please do not end this scene as there are a couple of
things I wish to "role play" out. One last thing, the liquid in the goblets
is a honey mead. Just so you know what it is for reactions. TAG!
