By the time it all ended, Amelia had a headache. So many options to consider, even some shouting involved in the meeting, and it had worn her out. "I don't know if we even want to turn back. I just hope all of this works. Do you mind if we head back to the house? I have a headache after that meeting." she sighed, leaning her head on his shoulder.

Rogal kissed her, "Of course, love." He took her hand and they went on their way.

Pent had just explaining the whole weredreake situation to Melody and Espera, and he sighed, "So, what do you think? I think you two should go, I want to stay if possible, to help train the men."

[Rose Swan]

Melody hesitated. "What do Mom and Dad say? I'm sure at least one was against it." she asked, looking at Espera for help.

[Taiylor Wallace]

"No... They'll let you go with Espera, though Ma wants me to go too. I'd rather you two go on your own."
.
Espera slowly nodded, "We can do that..."

[Rose Swan]

"Alright then. Espera and I will go, and we'll come back with a bunch of weredrakes for Mom and Dad." Melody said determinedly. She wanted to make her parents proud, and now would be an excellent chance to be like her mother.

[Taiylor Wallace]

"You'll go tomorrow morning, then. I'll let Ma and Dad know you'll be going on your own. They might be a little mad at me, but don't worry."
.
"Thank you, Pent," Espera shook his hand.
.
"Just take good care of my sister, that's all the thanks I need," Pent smiled and stepped away.

Melody hugged her brother before he left, and turned to Espera. "We should go train then. You never know who or what we'll run into. We should also come up with some story in case we want to avoid combat or something while traveling. I'd rather have this run smoothly." she told him, hugging him tightly.

[Taiylor Wallace]

"Well, we could always be halfway honest and say we're going to visit a tribe for peace..." Espera chuckled, kissing her forehead before taking her hand and walking with her out to the fields they trained in.

[Rose Swan]

"But that's no fun." she laughed a little as she went out to the field with him. "At least get a little creative with it."

[Taiylor Wallace]

"Creativity digs deeper holes," he chuckled. "By the way... heads up." With that, he playfully tackled her into the grass, rolling to a halt and laughing.
