Mave strode quietly through Dark Cove, Belegohtar following close behind, his head hovering over Mave's left shoulder. Mave reached up and patted his neck as they walked.

"Once more you have carried me into impossible battles and out again my old friend. I believe we have both earned a long rest"

Belegohtar inhaled and exhaled deeply, and Mave thought he saw the hint of a smile. Sometimes he believed that dragon was a little smarter than he let on.

As they progressed from the docks towards Mercenary Keep he noticed the villagers and merchants talking in hushed tones, more skitish and edgy than he remembered. Something seemed different, but he was too weary to be able to put his finger on it. Weary from battles fought on a foriegn land, fierce battles to free a people that he had not known beforehand, but could not leave enslaved. But those are stories for another day.

As he neared the keep, he noticed that some of the buildings had changed, and as he got closer, that Alessandra's home was missing entirely.

"Hmm, must find out about that", he thought to himself.

As he reached the door it flew open, his servants all beaming and smiling brightly.

"Welcome home m'Lord", one exclaimed. "We kept everything open for your friends and the people that you knew, but did not let a single new face in here. We knew you would return"

"Oh you knew did you?" Mave says with a slight smile.

"Of course sir, we never lost hope" she stated smiling as they all started running around preparing different things. "Would you like something to eat sir?"

Mave smiled and knew from the kindness of the people around him that he had returned home.

"Nay m'dear", he said as Belegohtar took to the roof. "I believe I will be retiring immediately."

Mave entered his chambers and unbuckled his sword, setting it beside the bed. He sighed as he thought about all that he had probably missed, but knew that he would get caught up in time. He had returned home alive and for the first night in a long time, he fell asleep... content...
