"Not really, we are talking about fighting, it makes sense. Alluvian has had extensive training. Ever since our Aunt was killed our family is super paranoid about making sure we can defend ourselves. Funny enough I can do a pretty mean swordfight myself. As for our little sister, she is excellent with a bow, she is decent with a sword, but she tends to drop her left shoulder when she lunges, and she is wicked quick with a knife. Oh, and for some reason she is extremely good with a sling. She loves her sling. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't send her in as front line, too big a risk, but in an emergency she has some skills."

Key looks impressed.
“Wow, I really just wanted to know if I needed to go out of my way to get her to safety if a fight broke out. Sounds like she can hold her own for a bit given the right tools. Does she have her own weapons?”

"She carries a blade somewhere on her body, not a big thing but I am assuming useful. She also carries a sling wrapped around her waist as part of her belt, she carries 6 or more sling bullets on her, usually as jewelry around her neck or wrists, I have even seen anklets that I am sure she keeps. I am fairly sure they are enchanted too, but she doesn't talk to me about that. She has always been paranoid, not that she acts like it."

Key looks relieved.
“That is a bit of a load off my mind. Especially if your not going to be with us at the island. I can ask her about it if you want. That we both know what her capabilities are.”

"Absolutely, get comfortable with her and traveling with her. I know she has been asking about traveling with you more than that. Also, if you need me to come I am happy to go. I will be there if you need me, or if you think Alluvian will need me."

“I think we’ll be fine. You’ll have a stone. The island itself is pretty benign. The only part I worry about is the trip there and back. What you need to take care of is important. We’ll call if we need help.” She smiles warmly at her brother.

"Mother and father were uncomfortable but I obtained a human gate mage and one of the three gate mages from Arborlon to make sure I am not late and to be there when needed. That also goes for coming to get you. Keep your stone, call me if there is a problem and they can use your stone to target."

Key lifts her eyebrows.
“Even on the island? I seem to remember it might have been a bubble where magic didn’t seem to work. I might be way off base though, we should double check with Luke. I always have my stone in my bag of holding. Do I need to keep it closer?”

"I was going to ask, has your sword woken up more? Alluvian was mentioning something about it."

key tilts her head.
“She talks to me when Im in a trance occasionally, some times my tattoo feels tingly or itchy when I know it shouldn’t. Other than that nothing major. Should something have happened by now?”

"Not really. Most moonblades don't actively talk to their holders. The most I have heard is whispers while in a trance, and an alert by itching, vibrating or something in their hand when something is wrong. Most blades don't even do that anymore, their magic has faded, maybe it is the life force in them that are too old or maybe they aren't awake."

Key tilts her head introspectively.
“Maybe its because she was in some sort of stasis all this time. Maybe it preserved her magic some how? Or maybe she just has a stronger sense of purpose. I do know she wants to fight evil just as badly as the rest of us.”

"Several houses still have their moonblades, but none of them are connected. They are still enchanted, but they are fading. I am happy to hear yours is still around. Just remember though, she is her own entity, and sometimes what she wants will not be what you want and keep that in mind."

Key makes an amused noise in the back of her throat and a smile spreads over her mouth.
“I’ve encountered that already. She did not like Glorian very much. Hindsight being what it is I should have headed her.”

"Never second guess that. You had no reason to think otherwise, and I honestly don't think the decision to fall had been made at that time. If he hadn't slipped he would have made a good husband, if a bit frustrationg."
Nestrim's eyes become dark, "We had our issues, but I had never realized he fully hated me so much. I thought it was brother rivalry, and I do admit I picked on him, but I hadn't realized how much he hated me for it."
