AGELESS CAMPAIGN, Episode II, Part VI.

They now cross into the city proper. At the far end of the current boulevard the very top of the Arc de Triomphe can be seen. Callum begins to stir.

"Oh, beautiful city," she said, looking out the carriage windows, but at least mindful not to look like a country girl getting her first glimpse of Paris. "Sleeping Beauty awakes," she chuckled.

Callum sits up, stretches and yawns. "I feel considerably better," he states, adding, "I think that the last time I slept was early on Monday" (it is now Wednesday evening). Looking across at the other three he says, "I trust that you had a fine journey?"

Abby chuckled and smiled at him. "Delightful. Although I was apparently a much more troublesome child than you were."

"That would not surprise me for one second," he replies.

The driver turns onto the Champs-Elysees and soon reaches the front doors of the aforementioned Cabaret le Ledu. It is brightly lit and there appear to be hundreds of patrons. Pepe says, "We will be staying in the city with friends. Have the carriage pick us up after lunch, say around 2:00PM at the Cafe Andre." "Very good," Callum replies. The two elves stand to depart as the driver holds the door for them.
 





He replies, "Not just a restaurant, Le Grand Vefour, the first and finest grand restaurant of Paris."

"Cal, that's rather extravagant, isn't it? And..." She paused. "I don't know how watched a personage you are in Paris, but reports would easily get back to your father that you were seen in my company."

He laughs "Abby, being seen with you is the least of my worries. Once my father learns of my being discharged from the Queen's service he might disown me. So allow me this extravagance while I am temporarily in his good graces. Besides, you may not have ever heard this before but...(lowering his voice) my family happens to be well off financially."
