********

I spent the rest of the day with Uncle Buddy. I took him for a tour around the Elven Castle. I told him of all the stories of the things I’ve seen and did since I’ve been here. I talked to him about the food, the traditions, the sights and the people I encountered. Before he left he spent a little more time with the twins. He hated the fact that I hadn’t named them yet, but understood I was going by the customs of the Locke. It didn’t keep him from giving them his own nick-names; No-neck and Tiny.

I shed a few tears when it was time for him to go. He informed me that Assassin—or as he liked to call him, pretty boy—told him that his memory would be wiped of this entire day. I thought that was best. If he remembered any of this it would only worry him.

My uncle’s parting words stayed with me that night as I sat on the bed rubbing Tipper’s belly.

‘They ain’t askin more of ya, than what’s already there. Be the hero I know you are.’

I was so caught up in my thoughts of Uncle Buddy’s parting words that I hadn’t heard Avalia knock on the door.

“I’m sorry, Lilly,” She says peeking her head through the door. “I knocked but you didn’t answer. May I come in?”

“Yes.” I say, realizing that Tipper was no longer in her ferret form. She was now a small spider camouflaged in the heavy blankets on my bed.

Familiars are paranoid.

Avalia glances over at the sleeping twins and smiles. They have that effect on everyone.

“Have a seat.” I direct Avalia to the chair in the corner of my borrowed room.

She smiles and sits, tucking her regal blue gown under her.

“How are you, Lilly?”

“Good. Much better.”

Actually I was a lot better. I felt lighter. I had a new burst of energy and enthusiasm.

“I’m glad. And the boys?” She says with a smile.

“Good. They stay awake a lot longer now.” I laugh.

“I’m sure that is entertaining. And I hope you know that my house and my staff are all at your use. If you need help, or a break, any one of us would be delighted to help you.”

For the first time, I think I may actually take her up on that offer.

“Thank you, Avalia. That would be useful.”

She clears her throat as if she is nervous. “Your Uncle is quite the character.” She chuckles. “He had a heart to heart with me before he left.”

“Oh?” I tilt my head wondering what my Uncle could have wanted to talk to her about.

“He is quite intelligent. He told me somethings about myself that I have never admitted to anyone.” She shakes her head and smiles. “He also advised me that I needed to be truthful with you. That the only thing holding back information from you would do is cause you to lose faith in us. I agreed with him when he said that you are much stronger than we could ever imagine.
