muldran

From Flame's View

Flame left the Guards Rest with the 2 Black Box’s safely tucked away on her. Soon she could start putting all this trouble behind her. She tried not to think on it too hard as she needed to keep her emotions under control. Wasting no time she ported herself to the safety of Castle British and then made her way on to the threaten where she hoped Muldran would be waiting. Also in truth she was hoping that he would have an escort too on case Taggart turned up. Entering the theatre she was please to see that Muldran had indeed arranged for a small escort, although she wondered on whether it would be enough. With this pressing on her mind her thoughts were to give the Box’s to Muldran as quickly as possible and see him away with them before more trouble could follow.

Trying to keep things as short as possible she told Muldran that he had no right to use others in his experiments, especially as they involved such strong magic. He fidgeted uncomfortable before her as he muttered how he had hope she had not suffered too much distress. Distress! A thought flashed in her mind of smashing the box’s over his head. With great effort she told him to be more responsible for his actions in the future. He glanced at Bertrand and mumbled about the Court placing restrictions on him and a few other things that she hardly heard. She knew the Court was going to have there work cut out if they were going to be able to control this mess and any future mess he was going to create. She looked at him standing uncomfortable before her, looking deep into his eyes knowing that he had not intended for things to be this way. He obviously had knowledge of things way above most people including her, but he was so thoughtless in his planning.

The conversation then turned to the last active box and the control box, which were both held by Taggart. She explained as best she could how the box had alerted her and drawn her to Moonglow when he had threatened the control box with deactivation. How much more was Taggart being manipulated by the boxes, he had already been moved to draw swords and encourage other to do so. She urged Muldran to get this sorted at a mater of urgency. But with the thought of Taggart on her mind she also wanted Muldran and the boxes, which were now in Bertrand’s safe keeping out of there and as far away from Britannia as soon as possible. So with this pressing on her thoughts she said her fare wells, with a final insistence on Muldran to keep her informed on the situation she left.

Flame then went though her duties checking on the castle, Commander Jurrels Office and home, the crystals, the Book of Truth collectors, the list was long but she managed to get through it with nothing noteworthy changing. But with the recent events still going through her minds she decided to take a ride. It was not long before she was racing through the countryside with the wind sweeping through her hair. The ground rushed by beneath them as they charged forward jumping anything that presented itself. She could not help but smile and by the time they returned to the Guards Rest she was feeling better than she had done in a very long time.

As she handed the reins of her horse to a guard she promised herself that she would do that again soon. With a last look at the latest notes she prepared for bed knowing sleep would soon follow. Still smiling she rested her head on the pillow and as her eyes closed a thought came drifting to her, your free but what about Taggart.
