On a similar note, my name is Lulua'ina. Please? I don't *mind* humans calling me Lulu, as you guys don't really do Darfellan, but not Lula. It is pronounced Lu-lu-wai-ee-na. Try it some time!
Secondly, 'mistress'? Shonto is my guardian and my friend, not a slave or something D: He is a person, not an animal - just because he doesn't speak common doesn't mean you should speak of him that way.
Also, it might be important to note that you didn't 'scare off' the dogs. You killed one and then you wounded another and then the others ATE him. It was horrible! Also you missed the bit where they were stalking us through the long grass and we didn't know what they were and D: It wasn't NICE, is what I'm saying.
Also, the drid is creepy. I mean to have a long talk about Valkur with her. She needs theological education before she ends up hurting someone. Possibly a child. She threatened to HURT that poor girl, and I... yes. Long talk about Valkur.
