Audrey:Walking briskly but staying aware, Audrey headed for the door.  Soft footsteps sounded out in the hallway but disappeared as they came onto the carpeted floor of the library.  Rounding the last bookshelf, Audrey saw from down the aisle exactly what she had wanted.  This woman was not exceptionally tall, with dark brown hair and eyes about her ageless face.  With an Andoran accent the woman rather sharply demanded "What is going on here?  Accepted shouldn't be here at all, much less embraced, child; is there someone here with you?"</blockquote>
