Hey Minna. Been a while no da? Not much has really been happening. Yesterday was Thanksgiving but all you know that. I went next door to my Uncle C’s and Aunt D’s and stayed there for a while. Socialized, ate, hung around and when I got bored with it, walked home. I thought I’d get on and play some EQ but I forgot that since my parents got a new credit card the account wasn’t paid up yet. Oh well, we got it right and everything’s ok now. But I realized I haven’t written and I haven’t posted the EQ stories. I have them I just didn’t HTML them. But now I got em. So it’s after this post. I’m watching the Teen Choice awards right now. Their remake of Lady Marmalade was histerical. And since POP just won and N’Sync got an award I’m cool. Oh well I hope to see my twin-san online tonight but other than that, it’s normal. Ja.

Chapter 11
Jadeen stretched as they stepped off the boat and onto the Qeynos docks. Zeresh, on the other hand, walked quickly onto the dock.
"Where's the fire?" Jadeen asked.
"Just don't want to test my luck. I know the way through the sewers...I just would rather travel top side."
"I see. In that case let's not dally."
"You can stay and sight see if you want...I'll just wait out side."
"Nah, I'd rather we just get along." As they walked Jadeen got associated with her surroundings. Qeynos was very green and colorful. No where near as elegant as Erudin, but still nice. However, as they exited the city Jadeen almost gasped at all the rats. She'd seen infected rats in Toxxulia forrest, but only one or two.
"You look shocked." Zeresh said.
"I never expected.... I mean I heard Qeynos had a rat problem, but I never dreamed..."
"Qeynos is always crawling with vermin." Said a voice Jadeen didn't know. "From the Guards right down to sewer rats."
"Idlewild...." Zeresh said. The ladies face barely registered confusion. "Um, it's Zeresh."
"Oh yes. Sorry...your human guise looks a lot like this wacko Paladin named Starmist." Idlewild rolled her eyes.
"Um...this is Jadeen, a friend of mine." Zeresh said introducing Jadeen.
"Nice to meet you." Jadeen said with a smile.
"...Let's hope so." Idlewild said smiling.
"Um where's Vicari?" Zeresh asked. "Is she still with you?"
"Yes but she knows what might happen if she tries coming into the city. For some odd reason the Qeynos guards and citizens are very particular about what type of scum they let in the city." Idlewild looked at the city and back to the other two. "I'll see you to the hills."
"If I may, who is Vicari?" Jadeen asked as they walked.
"My Iksar companion." Idlewild said smiling smoothly.
"Oh wow." Jadeen said, then she turned to Zeresh, "You are the most interesting person. You've got the best friends too." It obviously wasn't the reaction Idlewild expected.
"Zeresh...where are you and your friend headed to?" Zeresh shrugged.
"Halas, the Karanas, maybe Oggok for all I know."
"Sounds fun." Jadeen said. Idlewild blinked.
"Uh...yeah...with Illusion: Ogre..." Zeresh said.
"Zeresh?" Idlewild asked.
"Hm?"
"Where did you get all of those spells? I didn't think Neriak had a lot of Enchanter spells. In fact I didn't think Neriak was too hot on any profession besides Necromancers and Shadow Knights."
"Well...Neriak doesn't have all the spells I have."
"So?" Jadeen asked.
"Well, I met a kind-hearted elf in the East Common lands once and she agreed to triad me the Illusion: Human and Half elf spells. From then I just cast it to go to Freeport and bought my own."
"How clever." Jadeen observed.
"Who was this kind-hearted elf...couldn't have been Xellia." Idlewild mumbled the last part.
"...Her name was Eiallya."
"Interesting...what did she triad for?"
"A red Jr. Apprentice Enchanter's robe..." a pause followed. "She said she was tired of wearing green...and every High elf wore it so..."
"A High elf?" Idlewild and Jadeen said at the same time.
"Yeah...pretty blond high elf." Another long pause ensued.
"How...interesting." Idlewild said finally.
"Hey Wild Girl!" Another voice, but this time neither Zeresh nor Jadeen knew who the owner was. By know they were well into the hills.
"Uh...hey Shenna." Idlewild said, looking somewhat surprised.
"Who're your friends?" Tenrai asked.
"Um...Shenna Tenrai and...I'm sorry I don't know your name..."
"Nadeen."
"No way! My name's Jadeen."
"That quite the coincidence." Idlewild said only slightly annoyed. "Anyway, Shenna, Tenrai, Nadeen this is Zeresh and Jadeen. Zeresh is deceiving you and Jadeen is...actually very cute."
"How is Zeresh deceiving us...?" Tenrai asked.
"I'd love to elaborate dear, but there's a guard right there." Idlewild said showing a fake smile. There was no form of talking or communication till the said guard passed.
"Anyway, what were you saying?" Nadeen asked.
"Well..." Zeresh began.
"Zeresh is an Enchanter, and she's using the Illusion: Erudite spell." Jadeen reported happily.
"Oh...so what is she?" Shenna asked.
"If...you'll come with me deeper into the hills I'll show you." Zeresh said looking around paranoid.
"I'm up for it." Shenna said with a shrug. Tenrai scoffed,
"You're always totally up for it Shenna." But never the less, they all followed Zeresh till they were very deep into the Qeynos hills. Every so slowly the Erudite Illusion faded to the dark elf Zeresh.
"Oh..." Shenna started.
"...Wow..." Nadeen finished.
"Ssssuch word flare Barbarianssss have." Vicari hissed from behind them. Tenrai, Nadeen, Shenna and Jadeen all sort of goggled at Vicari.
"And I thought this day couldn't possibly have any more surprises in it." Tenrai said. Vicari jumped down near Idlewild's side.
"Nicccce to sssee you again Zeressssh."
"As well as with you Vicari." Zeresh replied.
"So...you two travel together?" Tenrai asked Vicari and Zeresh. Vicari laughed/hissed.
"No. My companion issss Idlewild." Vicari announced. Shenna laughed at the look on Tenrai's face.
"That's what you get for makin' assumptions Ten." Tenrai sort of pouted at the criticism. Zeresh chuckled.
"Don't worry about it. I get it a lot." Zeresh and Tenrai smiled at each other.
"So...Let me get this straight." Nadeen said. "Idlewild and Vicari." Here she pointed to Idlewild and Vicari. "And Zeresh and Jadeen." They all nodded. Shenna wanted to point out Nadeen's pointing problem, but Nadeen either wasn't finished and wasn't about to be interrupted or she knew what Shenna was going to say and just kept going. "And where are your groups heading?"
"We're sticking near Qeynos." Idlewild said.
"As for us, who knows?" Zeresh said.
"We're heading to Erudin's crossing...maybe Odus." Nadeen announced.
"Why?" Jadeen asked.
"Shenna's fiancee." Tenrai said. "He was heading to Erudin's crossing and she hasn't heard of him since."
"Oh how dreadful." Jadeen said. "What was his name and race if you don't mind my asking."
"Uh...I don't. His name's Sadial and he was a Human Wizard." Jadeen paused with a pensive face.
"I'm not sure I remember any human traveler of that description going through Erudin...But if you want, find a man named Nuzzi in Erudin. Tell him you know me and have seen me and I'm well, and if he ever gets around to asking what you actually came there for, explain your situation." All the other people standing by blinked.
"We'll do that." Tenrai said nodding.
"We still don't know where you guys are going." Idlewild said to Zeresh.
"It doesn't really matter to me." Zeresh said looking at Jadeen. "Any place you really want to go?" Jadeen looked at the sky thinking.
"Rivervale!"
"Rivervale?"
"You have illusion: halfling?"
"...Yes..."
"Well, why not. I've always wanted to see what I'd look like as a halfling." There was another long pause then Zeresh's hands began to glow with a yellow/green light. In a matter of seconds the light surrounded Jadeen and she dropped in height a few feet.
"By Quellious! Look at me!" Jadeen began running around in circles saying over and over, "I'm little I'm little."
"Right..." Idlewild said watching.
"Enh..." was Shenna's only response.
"Ssssso you're off to Rivervale?" Vicari asked Zeresh.
"Looks that way." She said with a smile that Idlewild thought seemed to be a patient one, though Shenna that it was a grateful one. Perhaps grateful for a companion.
"And we're off to Erudin's Crossing and Erudin." Tenrai said.
"Stay safe. There are Island Mad men out there...they'll kill anyone..." Zeresh said.
"Right." Shenna said.
"Stay safe all of you. We'll get going." Zeresh said turning down the path. "Come on Jade." The other two groups heard their voices fading as they walked on.
"Oh my gosh!" Jadeen said in a shocked voice.
"...What is it?" Zeresh asked suspiciously.
"Look at my feet!...Ewwww."
