For whatever reason, Nolan was always the first to rise. It might have been sheer habit by now, as the royal family had to get up early in order to see to all of their duties. The only times that Trev’nor had seen his friend sleep in was if he had either been up all night or was dog sick. This morning was no exception to the rule, as Trev’nor found his friend sitting at the table, a cup of something hot and steaming sitting at his elbow, a studious expression on his face as he stared at the map.

“Morning,” he offered as he came in.

“Morning,” Nolan returned, glancing up. “There’s hot porridge and tea on the stove.”

He knew he was friends with Nol for a reason. Happy to have breakfast already cooked, he dished out a large bowl, filled up a mug, and joined the other at the table.

“Becca still sleeping?” Nolan asked, sitting back a little to take a leisurely sip at his mug.

“She is, and no, I will not wake her up. I’m pretty sure that the only thing that can safely wake up Becca is a dragon.”

Nolan snickered. “Why, because they’re fire-proof?”

“Exactly. Well, Tail manages it somehow, but I’m pretty sure he’s lost a few lives in the process. Despite cat reflexes.”

“It’s funny, she doesn’t exactly sleep late, it’s just she’s really stubborn if some outside influence tries to wake her up. Except for when she barely sleeps at all.” Nolan pondered this for a brief second before shrugging and dismissing it. “Changing topics, I’m not sure what to think of that city named Von.”

Trev’nor paused, spoon hovering in the air, to gauge his friend’s reaction. “You realize that if there’s a place called ‘Rheben’ and it was built by an Earth Mage, then….”

“Von would mean that someone from my family built that city, yes. That’s highly probable. For that matter, I find Sha to be very suspicious as well. That’s a family name for a magical line too. How much of Khobunter was built by Chahiran magicians?”

“Apparently at least some of it. How that history was so easily lost, that’s the next question. Have they deliberately altered the history books?”

“They must have.” Nolan shook his head sadly. “Abuse of power always brings such sorrow.”

Unfortunately true. And to think, all of it started because the magical council in Chahir had gotten it in their heads to limit the power of a mage. If they hadn’t been afraid of their own mages, the world wouldn’t have turned upside down and taken so many lives in the process.

“Well, I’ve slept on it. I still feel like Tiergan is our best bet. You?”

“I haven’t changed my mind. I spoke briefly to our dragons this morning and they assured me that the four who are going to stay here in Rurick have already been decided.”

Trev’nor did appreciate how the dragons were divvying themselves up without making their human mages decide. It made his life much easier.

Becca wandered out of her room, a hand up to cover a yawn, bed hair going in every direction.
