The Story Begins
Dreamweaver:
Pulling her fur cloak close around her, the hood covering her head she makes her way down the path to the stable. She finally decided she had put this off long enough and was time to go visit her family. Entering the stable she moves to Thor's stall, smiling as he bobs his mighty head.. "Hello Love, want to go for a ride?" she chuckles as she opens the gate and leads him out, smiling at the lad as he puts his hand down, putting her tiny foot in it he boosts her up.. "Thank ye lad, I should be back before it gets dark". Nudging Thor we take off down the path leaving the Castle Grounds, we turn making our way slowly towards the Gypsy Camp, Shasha bounding ahead of us.
Taking a breath as she nears the camp, her dark eyes start searching for her Uncle Stefan, not seeing him she lets out her breath as she is not looking forward to the meeting, for deep down she knows he will be upset with her, but his love for her will overshadow it somewhat, she chuckles softly as she rides into camp. Greeting many of her friends as she rides towards his tent, suddenly feeling as she is being watched she stops, her dark eyes scanning to her right, seeing Nadya, one of the Elders, her dark eyes intently watching her, a soft sigh escapes her lips, as she had been hoping to avoid her this trip, for Nadya sees to deeply into people's souls, more so her's as she had known Dream since she was a babe.
Taking a deep breath, as she dismounts, her dark eyes lock with the elder as she slowly moves towards her. Stopping in front of her she searches the eyes looking back at hers, eyes so much like hers and her mothers. Her voice soft, "I pray you will forgive me for not coming sooner Matusa" Nadya stood there, then stepped back and motioned her to enter her tent, lowering her eyes she moved towards the tent, pulling back the flap as she slowly enters. Hearing Matusa mumble as she followed, "Ce sa fac cu acest copil, ea este de mult ca si parintii ei" a slow smile appeared on her face, for maybe she is not in to much trouble, yet.

Her eyes follow her Aunt as she entered the tent moving over and sitting across from her, still not a word is said. A soft sigh escapes her lips, “I’m sorry that it’s taken me this long to come to the camp to see my family, but I was not ready.” Nadya, just watched her, as if waiting for more, then shook her head, “You are too much like your parents, stubborn, but you are here now and have much to answer for Aislinn”. She canted her head slightly hearing her birth name, she’d forgotten what it sounded like and she smiled to her Aunt. “I know I do, and in time I will.”
Nadya sat there shaking her head, then went quite still as she looked straight at her, “Now I know what it is I have been feeling of late concerning you, or not feeling, your spirit has fled.” I shrugged slightly as I kept my eyes on her, “Maybe, or maybe just locked up tight to guard it, but as I said”, a grin playing at the corners of her lips in hopes it would distract Nadya, “Now is not the time, you have noticed there is much activity at the Castle, what with Sir Tris finally getting married, though who would ever have thought that day would ever come with him huh? Plus spi and I have decided to reopen the Velvet Hammer and I will have much that will be keeping me busy and I must return.” She watched as Nadya shook her head, and knew for now, as she saw her smile, that she would not be pressed for more right now. “I know when I will get no more out of you Aislinn, so for now will be patient, for soon you will have no choice but to confide in me. Now go, I have watched the activity and know of the festivities coming up, and yes,“ she laughed, “I know what you and spi are up to. Now go, you will return before long, and just so you know, your Uncle has gone on a quest, but he would not say what, so for now you are safe from him, for he is not to happy with you, as you probably already know.” Hugging her Aunt,she whispers softly, “I know, and Te iubesc” She turned and mounted Thor, smiling down at her Aunt, “I will see you soon.” Nadya nodded, “Yes we will and give my love to spi”…Nudging Thor they took off at a trot taking the path back to the Castle
Dreamweaver:
Slipping into her cloak, she smiles at Seth, “I will be at the Tavern for awhile as I have some of my family coming up to start renovating it, I should return later this afternoon.” Seth chuckled, as he opened the door, “The Lords and the Guards will love having that opened again, though I feel sorry for any residents nearby for the ruckus they will create once again.” Shaking her head as she steps through the door, peeking back at Seth, a teasing grin forming on her lips, “I know” she gives him a little wink as she moves down the steps, taking the path leading to the Village. Her steps light as her thoughts wander to all the Spirits, she has known for years, that have roamed the Castle, are now reappearing, her heart couldn’t be happier for spi.
Reaching the Village she notices the horses and grins seeing her cousin Robar, moving over to him, she reaches up and hugs him tight, stepping back a smile on her face, “It is good once more to see you, it has been awhile.” He laughed hugging her back, “Yes it has, you little minx, and oh by the way we have heard from Stefan, he will be returning sometime within the next month.” He watched the play of emotions moving over her face, then heard the lil growl and laughed. She looked up at him and frowned, mumbling, “Oh Hush!” and moved into the tavern to see many of her other family members roaming around and smiled as she greeted them.
Making her way over to the bar, she pulled out the drawing she had done of the Tavern, motioning Robar over, as the others gathered around, she laid the drawing on the bar. “We have a lot of work to do to get this renovated, and would like it all done within a month if possible.” She chuckled hearing the groans from her male cousins, as the lasses just laughed. Glancing around she sees Mihai a slight grin plays at the corner of her lips, “I was hoping you would come, spi has been asking about you, can only imagine the trouble you two have caused in my absence over these years.” Mihai jumped up and hugged her tight, then leaned back her dark eyes dancing with merriment and, something that looked like mischief, “Oh Aislinn, it is so good to see you, though you do know the trouble you are in with your Uncle.” Tilts my head back and looks to the ceiling, then back down at you, “It does seem that many of you, “glancing around at the others seeing their grins, then back to Mihai, “are just waiting for the confrontation that will happen then.” Mumbles, “brat” She laughed and danced around the room, “So, when will spi show up, huh?” I just laughed, “I’m sure now that she knows you are around it won’t be long at all, and remember, you have work to do, so behave.” Mihai giggled, “Why of course Cousin, don’t I always?” Shaking my head as she arches her eyebrow slightly, “since when?” Turning back to discuss the renovations with Robar as the others roamed around the rooms, the lasses running up the stairs to see what all needed done there.
Handing the drawing to Robar, a slight grin on her face, “I trust you to do this right, and keep the lasses in line as much as you can. Oh, before I forget, spi should show up at some time with instructions for something I said she could do, but will let her tell you.” I laughed seeing the twinkle in his eyes, “Knowing spi, that could be anything. It will all get done cousin of mine.” Giving her a wink he gathers the men around and yells up the stairs for the lasses to get their asses down here pronto. Smiling as she watches them she realizes more and more how much she has missed them all. Waving goodbye to them, she leaves the Tavern, glancing around the Village she moves back up the path towards the Stables, planning to get Thor and go for a ride.
Dreamweaver:
Smiling to Seth as she slips into her fur cloak, pulling the hood up then opening the door, “I will be back later Seth, I have something I need to attend to”, motioning for Sasha we step out, glancing back, she saw something flicker over Seths face then quickly disappear as a slight smile formed ,”Be safe out there Dream” giving him a gentle nod, she runs down the steps glancing back to the Castle, then looking to Sasha as they move off up the path heading into the forest.
Glancing back now and then as they move deeper into the trees, her mind on what she had felt last night, but wasn't sure, yet, what to make of it and was really trying to ignore it completely, she smiled as she watched Sasha racing ahead, knowing she would never go far from her.
She had checked with her cousin and renovations on the Tavern were going well, so that she didn't need to worry about as it was in capable hands, hearing a twig snap, she stopped, sensing Sasha moving closer to her, her dark eyes glanced slowly around, then frowned as she saw nothing, but felt something, “Och Sasha, I hate when this happens, sometimes I wish”, her voice trailed off as she sighed then continued walking, knowing someone was near, but not sensing yet who it could be. Suddenly a soft whisper comes from the trees, “Ashlynn” she turns, her eyes scanning the whole area, noticing that Sasha had become alert, which sent a shiver down her back, then relaxing as she knew that voice, so stood her ground waiting, her stance relaxed, it was not knowing the mood of who the voice belonged to that concerned her.
