Message: <blockquote data-quote="hafrogman" data-source="post: 2911001" data-attributes="member: 8858">Tarren is torn.  When word of Myrel's dissapearance reached him this morning he wasn't too concerned at first.  So she had spent the night away from the manor, it would probably do her good.  It's a horribly stuffy place, all sorts or rules and limits.  But when she hadn't returned in time for breakfast he began to worry.Perhaps she was hurt, or abducted like people were saying.  She wouldn't have run off, would she?  At least not without letting him tag along.  The worst part was that all the adults seemed to be willing to do no more than sit around wringing their hands.  Incapable of deciding anything, they have to wait for Lumin.About an hour before noon Tarren made up his mind.  He would mount his own expedition to find Myrel.  He wasn't exactly sure how he would go about doing this, but anything was better than just sitting here.  A few provisions were in order.  Food and water were easy enough to lift out from under the nose of the manor's cook.  A heavy cloak lifted from an unattended closet somewhere.  Perhaps a little rope from the stables.  Tarren suffered a small twinge of guilt at this small thieving spree.  Myrel wouldn't approve, but it was for her own good.  Still, he made a silent promise to himself to return what he could when he was done with it.He was just doing a few final checks Lumin rode back into the village.  Soon the call was going out for some sort of meeting.  Surely it was about Myrel.  And here is Tarren's dilema.  Go out as planned, or wait for more information.  Okay, so he hadn't actually been invited. . . but it would be pretty tough to keep him from listening to their conversation.  After a moment's more indecision, Tarren quickly stowed his ill gotten gains behind a barrel in the courtyard and decided to see just how close he could get to that meeting.</blockquote>
