Asuir's eyes struggled to open. He only caught glimpses of the beach as he drifted between unconscious and conscious. Battered and sore from the fall, and almost frozen by the harsh temperatures of the Canthan ocean, Asuir attempted to rise. Quickly he fell back in the sand, face first, letting out a sharp breath, causing him to cough until his lungs burned. At the same time, without moving anything but his right arm, he searched the space around the sand desperately for the blade, but before he could feel the cold grasp of Scars Meadows in his hand again he lost consciousness.

"Amy.....Amy, time to wake up" Angel said softly by the side of her cousin. Amy rose to a sat up position and rubbed her eyes, pulling the covers close. "Hey sleepy head" said Angel with a smile on her face, and began to speak again but was cut short by Amy.
"Asuir..Did you find Asuir?!".
Angel returned her look of concern with a look of sorrow.
"Calif and Kalk both have parties out searching for him now....But.." Angel couldn’t bear to look Amy in the eyes for the next part.
"But what?!" Amy said gripping the bed covers tightly.
"An order was given to terminate Asuir on sight after Racthoh was found unconscious in the armory... I'm so sorry Amy."
"..No...". Amy jumped out of bed and began getting dressed in a rush, startling Angel in the process.
"A-Amy...w..What are you doing?..". Angel tried to reason with her, but Amy's stubbornness started to show.
"I'm going to get my husband back!”
“But….what can you do that isn’t already being done? ….you should stay here.”
“If you think I’m staying here while they kill Asuir…you don’t know me very well.” Amy glared at Angel.
Angel sighed. “You’re right. I know you wouldn’t stay when he is in danger…I’m going with you. Let me go tell Ice.”
“SHE'S DOING WHAT!!!” Ice looked at Angel in amazement. “I’m going too.” Ice reached under her bed and pulled out her pack.
Angel looked at the pack in bemusement….”you…have a pack ready to go?”
Ice shrugged in embarrassment….”It was the only way to get Kenzie to leave it be. Always have a pack ready to go..so she says…constantly. We just need the food to take. I only have stuff that won’t spoil. Now go get your pack. I’ll check on Amy.”
Angel stared at Ice as she actually jogged to Amy’s tent. Shaking her head, she then hurried to get her own pack and go to the supplies tent for food.
Ice stopped at the entrance and looked at Amy in concern. Amy was hastily collecting her weapons, armor, and other necessities together and packing her pack.
“Amy?”
Amy whirled around and looked at Ice. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw Ice carrying her pack and weapons….already in her armor.
“Angel and I are going with you.”
“Thanks.” Amy gave Ice a look of gratitude.
“I think we should talk to Trub before we go. She is with Racthoh.” Ice said firmly.
“Ok, I’m ready…let’s go talk to her then leave….we have no time to lose. We must reach him first.” Amy declared.
“How in the world will we find him?”
“I have a good idea where to look.” Amy stated as she headed to the doorway.
