[QUOTE="dpdx, post: 1753408, member: 188"] [Spot: [COLOR=SandyBrown]12 +5 +4 = 22[/color]] Fendric, who had reveried, arose a moment after Aerda left, washed, dressed and prayed while he was gone, now turned and smiled back at Aerda and Astrule as they 'greeted' him. Fendric tells Aerda what he can of each of the new members: "[COLOR=PaleTurquoise]Keep in mind, my trueblooded friend, that these our newest companions have been tested and found true, many times over.
