*Hawk and Vortigern ride ahead of the entourage. Raif, Creed and Arlan trot behind. Philomena is seated astride her kelpie in the centre of the group. The path ahead cuts through thick woodland, purple trees overhang a narrow path and creatures move amid the branches, watching the travellers as they pass*.

*Hawk puffs on a fat cigar and narrows his eyes. He watches the tree line and the path ahead*.

*Vortigern looks across at Hawk*.

How long will the journey take?

*Hawk holds up three fingers and takes another puff on his cigar*.

I guess that's three days... Should go by fast with such sparkling company....

*Hawk nods and edges his horse ahead of Vortigern's and leads the riders onwards*.

*Raif smiles*.

Well it's good to get away from Stormrock. Staring at stone walls all day and night.

*He inhales the fresh air*.

That was enough to drive a fellow crazy... But out here....

*Raif looks around at the beautiful landscape*.

Makes you feel good to be alive.... Just a pity there's a war on and we're the ones fighting it...

Not liking the war? It makes men out of boys Raif. You'll think different when the Kanaran flag is flying over Grimney.

*He sits up proud in the saddle*.

And we're ruling the place.

*Arlan shrugs*.

I'm fighting for my daughter. Nothing else interests me... I'm not like you Creed, but I'll kill anyone that get's in my way..

*She smiles*.

As long as they pay me for that....

It has been so long, I had forgotten what fresh air and freedom tasted like... I want to take a detour east. There is a lake that way and I have been deprived of the water for months. It won't add more than half a day to our journey and I will pay you all for the inconvenience.

*She looks back and smiles at Arlan*

You have a daughter? The most precious gift... how old is she? You must feel your heart is torn away from your body when she is not near you... but I understand, you must do anything to protect her.

*She brushes a tear from her cheek and turns pale.*

I feel sick! I must stop.
