  Ashelle blinked with the suprise of what she'd just heard.  He wanted to
what??  Oh gods....first T'jellan, and now Tevel.  What was it about her
that made men act like this?  But he was nice looking, and kind.

  She watched as he stood up, and sighed softly.  What was she to do?

  Ashelle stood quickly as well..almost going after Tevel, if only to try
and see what was bothering him so much.  Then she simply threw a large
stone into the lake with a loud curse, and headed for her apartment.

  She flopped onto her bed, and idly flipped that gold coin she'd found a
few times before curling up hugging her pillow and falling asleep.  She'd
go to see T'jellan tomorrow.
