Alyssa waved her hand dismissively  [color=ed1c24]"She was a catty bitch anyway...no pun intended."[/color]  She looked away sighing.  [color=ed1c24]"She was my catty bitch though...I do miss her some.  Probably why I haven't replaced her."[/color]

Alyssa laughed at the dusty tome comment.  Little did Catarina know Alyssa did indeed surrounder herself with dusty tomes at every given opportunity,  hers or not.  [color=ed1c24]"Yeah,  I'm a wizard.  I learned my craft from my drow mistress during my stay among them.  She must have been pissed when I finally got invisiblility to work and walked out with her spellbook and a large portion of her jewelry."[/color]

[color=ed1c24]"Arcane secrets are seductive.  What wizards never tell you is that they're basically junkies,  waiting for their next fix of forbidden lore."[/color]  She grinned.  [color=ed1c24]"I never formally joined a guild or college,  but I'm pen pals with some of the more impressive wizards around.  We swap techniques and the like.  College learning just isn't for me,  I can't imagine being cooped up that long."[/color]

She looked over to Vivian.  [color=ed1c24]"I've always wondered what it was like to be a sorcerer though.  All the fun none of the study?"[/color]
