With her steed kicking up a huge cloud of dust in her wake, War Scribe came thundering into the town of Macula! Bringing her horse to a stop, the Dark Elf Chronicler looked around the small town, scanning both the crowd of people that were staring at her and two Yarfellian soldiers that were approaching her!In a loud voice, War Scribe inquired openly, "HAS ANYONE SEEN THE LAST VALLIFREYIAN!?! I HAVE COME FOR HER!!!"
Most of the people just whispered among themselves while the soldiers drew nearer to grabbing the reins of the Drowling's horse. However a little boy walked up to War Scribe's mount asking, "What's a Vallifreyian?"
The Drow Chronicler took notice of the boy and smiled saying, "A Vallifreyian--particlularly the one I'm looking for--is a red-headed woman that carries a large book similar to the one that I have! She wears a long, flowing dress! Have you seen her!?!"
The kid thought for a minute and then said, "Um, yes, I did! Although someone was with her, they headed to the west, that way!" Pointed the boy in a westerly direction.
"Thank you, little boy!" replied War Scribe serenly, "You don't know how much good you have done this day!" And with that the Drowling reared up the front legs of her horse knocking down the two guards that were trying to capture her! Setting her horse back down on all fours again, War Scribe looked down at the men and said, "Next time, bring help! Lots of help!"
And with that, she turned her horse to the west and rode off like a shot! The guards for their part decided to take the Dark Elf Chronicler up on her advice and began to call for more soldiers to join them in their chase of the runaway Drow!
