*as there are no soldiers with steeds or creatures, the stables near Oane are very small and normally unused. They are on one side of the river, and when magicians are at Oane they are guarded by a small group of soldiers to keep the the animals safe.*

*Leaves Byzantia in a large stall, makes sure she has food and water*

I'll only be a couple of hours girl, don't worry you'll be ok here

*Goes into Byzantia's stall and leads her out towards the gate*

*Comes inside, and takes her horse out of the stall.*

Hello, Corela! Have they been treating you well? Good!

*Saddles up, and waits for Syian.*

*enters quickly, she sees Lumien and smiles*

Ready to go?

*She helps her up onto the saddle, and they ride toward the gate.*

*she grips onto Lumien with her right arm tightly*

*Byzantia trots into her stall and waits*

*Degrom walks past the stables. Bored, he goes to the barracks*

*Leads Byzantia out of her stall, jumps on her back and she flys off*

*Polonius leads his horse into the stables*

Hello? Is anyone there?

*A small stableboy, about 12, comes and takes Odyses' reins.*

Yes sir!

Boy, I am looking for this woman *shows the boy the tapestry with Patty's image* She'd be a bit older by now, and her name is Patricia DuBois.

Err... well, there is an old lady living in Oane- a very small house by the river's edge. We never see much of her...

Thank you, here, have a toffee.

Thank you, sir!

*The boy takes the tweed horse to a stall as the animal noses at his pocket, smelling the toffee.*

*Polo wanders about a bit more, asking everyone he sees about Patty*

*Polo runs in, pushes the boy over, grabs the reins of his tweed horses, throws himself upon the creature and bolts out the door towards the gates*

*Shaylar climbs off Byzantia and leads Leon to her home*

*Heads into the stables with Lady Shaylar*
