Aduthondiel
"When was the last time you saw Jack?" Adu needed to answer this question but decided that if she answered it truthfully then it would only make her look bad. She had to tell Isaac some type of lie that will not hurt her in the end. She was suprised that Isaac had followed her into the stables and then after leaving he ran back into the stables. Isaac was a strange person even if he may or may not be the Jack she has been looking for.
"Isaac, it was many years ago. Back when I had first became a warrior for Dorian. That was the good days. You seem scared. What happened?" Adu turned when she heard Count. She needed to check on Count and see how he was but right now Isaac was there.
If Isaac sees Count then everything will fall in on me. I will no longer have Hama instead I will be stuck with Isaac again. That is something I never want again. Hama is far better a man than Jack ever thought about being. "Isaac I need to check up on my horse. He's getting a little shaken since he isn't use to staying in the stables." Adu always had Count attached to a tree of some sort. Times had changed and if Adu was going to stay here for a while then she needed to get Count use to staying in the stables until she got her own place to stay. Adu turned to go to Count but stopped. "Isaac, tell me one thing. Why do you persist on finding more out about Jack? It was a long time ago and he's lost to me now."
Adu's voice trailed off into the wind. What else was she suppose to do? All she wanted was to get to her dear friend and see what else she could find out about this Isaac.
