“Follow me,” said Nia. She led the way up the stairs to a small room, bare except for a fireplace. “If you don’t mind, the girls and, is it
Alanna?, Alanna will sleep in here, since we don’t have enough rooms for everyone.”
“That’s fine,” replied
Daja.
As Nia led the boys and the dedicates off, Kel, Alanna, Sandry, Daja, and Tris grabbed pillows and other stuff to sleep on.
“So,
Daja, this is where you stayed last time?” asked Kel.
“Yeah.”
Nia came back in. “Umm, I forgot to tell you that I meditate in here each morning at about 8:00AM. If you don’t mind…”
“We don’t,” chorused the three Winding Circle mages.
“I will meditate with you, as I learned since I’m a mage,” answered
Alanna.
“I meditate, even though I don’t have magic. I learned in the Yamani Islands,” said Kel reluctantly.
“Good. Well, good night!” said Nia as she left, closing the door behind her.
Kel slept badly that night. Her dreams were filled with a vision of a wrinkled old lady. Over and over, this dream never left. Kel woke up finally, after what had seemed like months.
“Kel, you’re up. We were just going to start meditating,” commented
Alanna.
“Well, then let’s start meditating,” replied Kel.
