Still clad in the same clothes she'd
worn the night before Les crawled out of the massive bed and made her
way over to the tray that Gilroy had left her. She took her time
eating to her fill, doing her best to procrastinate. She straightened
her hair in the mirror and adjusted her clothes. A small part of her
hoping she could just go home if she took too long. But there was
nothing else for her to do, so she met Gilroy in the hall and walked
with him to the library.
Waiting for her was the three seers,
the tall woman, Talon, grant and three others whom Les had seen the
night before. There was also a man with dark and angled features that
Les did not recall. They were all seated around the room talking
among themselves when She entered with Gilroy. Grant greeted them
with a smile and led Les to a chair in one of the seating areas.
Everyone else made their way over and seated themselves nearby. Not
believing that this small meeting could possibly prove more useful to
their cause, Les sat silently and watched them.
