Gwenneth smiled with crystal tears brimming in her eyes. ::Your lir will not run alone,:: she whispered to Alexis. ::That, at least, I can do for you.
::I thank you all,:: she said joyously, expanding the mindlink once more. ::I do not hide the fact that both my life and that of my boy are dependent upon you; yet I hold no obligation upon any of you to continue in this venture longer than you wish. For my part, I pledge my alliegance to each one of you, to defend and protect as best I can.::
She turned to Alexis and Angelina. ::Children, my heart is with you. I swear that no harm shall come to you while I draw breath. Your mission begins tonight, for once you are safely sheltered we dare not , for fear the boy might wake while we remained. Fear nothing, for though we shall be out of sight, we are never out of mind. Do not hesitate to consult any one of us at any time.
::Now!:: She hopped off of Jeff's chest and trotted over to Rio and Monet. ::What news from the warrior, Rio?::

Angie sat very still, watching as Alexis absently stroked Jeff's hair, lost in her thoughts. The younger 's brown eyes narrowed, but not in suspicion or anger. She was deeply troubled. Oh, what have I gotten into myself into now? she wondered miserably, pulling her knees to her chest.
At the pale g.irl's comment about her 'lir', however, Angie perked up. "Lir... That's some Cheysuli term, innit? I didn't know you were Cheysuli. 'Monet', did you say? A tiger? That's--" She stopped speaking suddenly, and shut her mouth with an audible pop! Her cheeks flushed, and she glared at the ground. She was surprised at her flow of speech; she didn't normally talk so much, unless arguing with someone. "...Kinda cool," she finished quickly, scrutinizing a dirt-encrusted nail.
