Corvus broke from the line of thick sage-brush, scratched and dirty with twigs stuck this way and that in his dark hair. He'd had to use animal trails, and some of them had been quite narrow requiring him to drop to his hands and knees at certain points and crawl through the thick brush.

The Compass Rose rune had worked a treat. When he held the stone and pictured the village, the image of a needle appeared on the compass and pointed him directly towards his destination.

The downside was it didn't account for roads or human pathways. This, he suspected, was a rune used by dragons who could fly directly from one point to another.

It had taken him the better part of several hours, during which the timer on the rune had run out. He had copied the rune down exactly and reactivated it upon the rock, at the cost of only seventy-five mana. Now he had the Rose Compass rune in his dictionary.

The blue dragon had taught him an invaluable rune.

His head spun both from that and a host of other revelations.

Since leaving the palace, he had been faced with the fact that there were gaps in his education, a growing list of items a prince in training ought to know about his own kingdom: The Path systems, hedge witches, the blight… among many other things.

There was much he didn't know, and it was daunting to think about what else he might learn, and why so much had been kept from him.

Including the fact that common feral dragons could speak, and preform magic…

Why wasn't there a hint of this in the Great Palace Library? he thought.

The Great Palace Library was immense. It took up an entire five-story building within the sprawling palace complex. Scholars could spend a lifetime within the library and never read all the books and scrolls. He was led to believe the library contained the total sum of knowledge in the kingdom. One only needed to know how to look for what they needed.

There had been an entire room dedicated just to dragons; the history and the lore.

Corvus had not read through all the many, many scrolls and books on dragons, but he certainly had done his research. Nothing suggested common feral dragons could speak or that they called their hatchlings out of the egg by name.

It was a thought both enraging and sobering. What else was missing from the library? And had it been done on purpose?

That was his state of mind as he finally laid his eyes on Duckwater Village again.

The last half mile before the village walls had been cleared of tall brush. That, and his Night Vision gave him an excellent view of the firmly shut gate.

Of course.

He did not know why he expected to simply walk back to the village. Of course, travelers would be barred from coming and going at night. Why else have the high walls?

He suspected the gates would open come morning. Until then, he was locked out.

Backing into the sage-brush again, he located a small clearing not too far off the closest animal path.
