Luthien and Mirasande had weathered the sandstorm well, and Luthien was running at top speed, Mirasande on her back. They had been going for what seemed like hours to Luthien, passing dune after dune, the dull landscape never changing, and she was beginning to wear out. "Mari," she panted, slowing,"Mari, I can't run any longer. We have to stop and rest. I cannot continue like this without rest." She slowed to a halt and slumped to the ground, panting. Mirasande jumped down and opened her pack, pulling out a large skin of water. "Tomorrow we ride at dawn, Luthien. We must get to Eden before Yousei, and we have to be gone before they arrive. I will not let my sister know what I have done." She pulled a large cloak out of her pack and laid it on the sand. "This is all we have. Rest now, Luthien, for tomorrow we ride."

Yousei wiped the Nienna's saliva from her hand and warily slid onto its back. She then took up the reigns once more and braced herself, as she snapped them against the creature's neck and dug her heels into its sides. In a flash, they were off. She clutched the reigns tightly, as they sped onward. To her surprise, there was hardly any turbulence, as the creature dashed across the desert sand.
Karasu was relieved that Witium had decided to walk for now. She was in no mood to carry passengers. She looked up and saw her master swiftly crossing the desert sands, and immediately darted after her. Night had already fallen, and the air had grown colder. Lyndria's moons hung overhead and already, Yousei was beginning to realize how little she had thought this through. Her fantasies of a vacation were slowly leaving her, as she pulled gently on the reigns for the creature to slow down. The Fatal Tors were in plain sight now. She considered stopping for a moment, but discarded the idea, as she knew she wished to reach Eden as soon as possible. Though, if the others wished to stop, she would not begrudge them rest.

Yousei looked over at Miles as she was addressed, and feigned a smile, "Oh, no! I'm fine.." She looked back at the wastelands before her and her smile quickly faded. The distant mountains seemed to take a step back with each step they took toward them. Looking back over to Miles, she was in awe by how complacent he looked in this environment. The dry air and hot sun had not fazed him. Karasu soon walked up beside Yousei, blocking her view of him. Yousei curiously turned her gaze to meet her dragon's, which was angrily staring back at her. ~What is it, Karasu..?~ she inquired. Karasu snorted and replied, ~Do you honestly believe..,~ she began with a slightly condescending tone, ~..that Miles's people will simply welcome you with open arms??~ Yousei's brow furrowed slightly, as she looked up at her dragon, ~What do you mean..?~ Karasu silently scolded herself and allowed herself to fall a few steps behind once more. Yousei looked over at Miles. She was questioning their journey more and more..

The old elf's strength was returning. It had been a week since he summoned the dark power which nearly kill him, but his injuries were practically gone now. However, a dark mark now was evident on his chest. Camthalion knew this would happen, but the time called for him to do so, and now he bore the mark of a corrupted elf, even more so than he already was. The mark was hidden under his robes and he began to run closer to the city of Eden.
Morning rose, and his journey was coming to a close. Camthalion looked out into the sandy horizon, still unable to see the rest of the company. He grinned. He had enough time to look for that item before they arrived; the time that will piece together everyone's destiny. All he had to do was find it.
Slowly, he began to pace himself into the city. The gates were already opened, and walked inside their borders. Immediately, a sudden chill struch him on all angles. Many villagers stared at him with distaste, even loathing. What made them like that, he had no idea, but he knew it had something to do with him. The villiagers began to shut down their shops, close their window, enter their homes hurriedly. It was as if they were afraid of him. Or some other hidden motive. Something is not right here. I know this is where Miles lives, but it seems as if... It hit him. ~Karasu! Do not bring Yousei here! They're here! The cu --~ Camthalion fell into darkness.
