Having come back from the long journey without achieving their goal, one might have expected Kailara and Feathers to be downcast. The merry sound of whistling and the sporadic clicking of a beak in time to the tune, would deny that reality however. The pair made heir way into town and soon, after a short rest in the warm sun, Feathers raised the topic of bounty. Surely there had been some? A few coins perhaps? Or a trinket? Digging through her pack and pockets, Kai, at length pulls out a flask of something silvern and powdered. It sparkled in the sunlight and certainly caught Feathers' eye. -Say what is that? She asked with a keen eye traced on the glittering powder. -Found it, some merchant had left it lying around and then I left it laying around in my pocket. -Well, it's very pretty is it not? Might it have any particular value? Ruffling her shroud Feathers got up. -Let us go at once to find out! Kai heaved a sigh, but smiled at her friend and together they set off. But poor is the thief who goes asking what her ill-gotten gains are, lest the owner hear tell of it. And such they took the boat back to Ardaal, and there started their search for information. Your move Ernie!
