*he helps her up gently and fetches her robe*

Do you know the cause of this headache?

Lilandra, talk to me please. Something is worrying you I believe?

*she closes her eyes a moment*


I dreamed my homeland was burning Jack....I saw family and friends all running for their lives... *shudders*


*she rubs the back of her neck*


*stands unsteadily*


I believe I owe someone an apology.. perhaps I should attempt it now, before it is too late.....


*She looks at Jack, needing him to agree ... but also needing his support when she meets with the Assassin*


I don't even know his name... do you?

*he holds out a hand to steady her*

His name is Cal I believe, here let me help you

*he kisses her softly*

Do not worry, we will get to your homeland Lilandra

*helps her out onto the deck*

*walks in carrying lilandra and lays her gently on the bed*












*he rips away part of his shirt, wets it in the jug of water laid on the side and places it on her forehead*





Miss?

Hmm...??

Jaack.....?

I.........Oh!!.. Its you!


*pulls her dressing robe closely about herself*


Whatever have you done to your shirt?

You fainted miss


I used it to cool your head


*gets up to leave*


You should rest

*snaps*

Stop calling me miss... I am Lilandra!!

I will tell you if I require rest!!




Oh!...*puts her hand to her mouth*

Sorry!!... I'm so very sorry!

*bows and moves to the door*


I.....




I will leave

*She is mortified at her behaviour*

All these years of living amongst humans and I still talk like an elf at them.. .. That proves it.. I am no better than my parents! </>



No.. please, I need to talk with you.. Captain Templar seems to know you, is that right?

I am sorry I am confused.. You are an Assassin by trade? Your contract we me? Why did you change your mind? More to the point .. Why me?



*She hopes her softer manner will help her repair her ealier damage with this man*

I didn't have a contract on you it was the other, the girl.



I have asked her not to carry it out and she has agreed

*She is shocked at the confirmation of Liquids warning*


Aannd.. why would you do that?.. I thought a contract was the Bond of the Assassins Guild.....


*she pales and feels dizzy again*

There is something else going on here, I don't know what yet

You saved my life earlier... I could have been killed when that block and tackle swung loose...


You could have been killed yourself......


I thank you... for saving me...

It was nothing

*turns to leave*

Oh!.. Wait!

*Kneels on the bed*


You never told me... How do you know Captain Templar?

We met in warwickshire

I was trying to warn him of an evil I sensed

The Entity?


It was with you?


*sits back in the middle of the bed*


Please tell me more...*pats the edge of the bed for him to sit and tell*

*hesitates*


theres not alot to tell




*he fears worrying her*

Please.......please sit....

I need to know.. Jack won't talk to me.. I need to know!

*sits on the bed*


I believe there is an evil force at work, whatever it is it grows stronger on dispair, so therefore creates as much as possible, hence the fall in at the school.

I believe it took the contact out on you, if you had been killed it would have created great dispair.

And thats basically all I know
