The Deck | Afternoon | Saturday | July 10

The clouds were easing the heat a bit and, without the sun hanging high in the sky, Bod figured that spending some time outside wouldn't give way to an inevitable sunburn. He thought about walking into town but eventually decided that that could wait till later.

Instead, he veered off and clambered onto the deck, sliding into one of the empty loungers and actually choosing to be lazy for once. Usually, laziness was a side effect of having nothing to do or trying to avoid something else but today, he just wanted to relax. He found himself caught up in the movements of the clouds, dark and opaque as they were. He wondered what the sky looked like behind them, if the peeks of blue would stay long and where those clouds would go after moving off.

It wasn't heavy contemplation but he was enthralled by it anyway.

[Deck is open. I like clouds.]

"She's the most courageous woman I have ever met," said Alexander, with complete conviction and completely ignoring the fact that, really, outside of his mother and his sister and some barmaid back in Llewdor, she was about the only woman he'd really met before coming here. And, since Bod had so far been so easy to talk to, he just found the rest of his frustration flowing right out. "And I can't even find her! It's like she's completely disappeared after we left Mordack's castle. I haven't been able to locate even the smallest trace of her!"
