Majidah is sleeping..and how does it come that I am so honored as to write those words? I think for once, the Gods have favored me, and led Faizah back.
I had ridden out for the monastery, leaving Indigo at the Roost with Keln. She was to finish the move to the new cottage. I have not written of the new place, and I will not until Ive slept there a night. I am rather proud of it though, and the amenities that I have added. Ciro would never believe how much Ive spent on it. I am feeling the pinch of my monies though..but what of it? There is more out there..and when I need it, I shall go about getting it.
A storm caught me about halfway to the hills, and I was forced to stop. The bloody damned horse was not going much further. I suppose it was what some would call fate though, to have to have stopped, because that was when Faizah caught up with me. R'Auco flew her in..and I still, have yet, to know how that is. There has been no time to ask questions, nor to find out where the woman has been. Our first immediete concern, was finding a place out of the storm, for R'Auco had not only brought in Majidah, but Indigo too. Keln was not far behind, having followed them, and what a frozen bunch we were. R'Auco scavenged us a small cave, and here I sit, by this dwindling fire, freezing my arse off and penning a few words while Faizah sleeps. She hasnt changed..gotten a little older about the eyes perhaps...but Gods, I can hardly drag my eyes off of her. How many days did I wish she had been with me..and now she is again. I was unwilling to be parted from her again so soon, and so it is that R'Auco has taken Indigo and gone off for the monastery ahead of us. I hope the girl survives him..but R'Auco had become stubborn, and requested her for a time. I allowed it, only to draw his protection to Indigo, and thus Trevor. Not that I think the old beast can do much against the odds, but who knows. He is the best protection I have right now.
Keln has managed to loose himself in the damned snow, and with his horse and mine. Majidah and I will go and look for him or the horses in the morning. I dont ken he was too comfortable with meeting the old beast and FAizah all in the same day. Let us hope he is simply grumbling, and not frozen out there somewhere. I ken he is a bit smartter than that, but who knows what goes through the rogues mind. He is yet young.
To sit here this night, and not ride on is torture. I fear The Traveler will get there ahead of me..but at the same time, I feel that that wont happen. Its like he is waiting for me to get to Trevor first. He said he owed me, when he told me of the future..and that haunts me now.
I still have the same problem..but now complicated with Majidah. She refuses to have any consideration of Trevor being given up. She believes we should keep him, and raise him, though Gods..what he would turn out to be is anyones guess. I feel that it is wisest..perhaps safest for my son to be with his father..but at the same time, as I said before..I do nae think I can give him up. ..can I then..raise him as he should be raised? can I protect him? The answer to that last is no..and that is what pains me the most. I wish, that his father, and I could both have our son..but I doubt that is possible.
It will not be long before the sun is in the sky. The snow has stopped, thank the Gods, and now all we need is a horse. We need to be on the way, for the monastery is still a days ride.
