"Sorsha, I too would like nothing better than travelling alone with you. If you really want to leave, I'd gladly go with you. But I'd prefer it if we tried to persuade Isaura a little longer.

He pauses a moment, considering a new idea.
"I think she'd only take the position gladly if the people wanted to have her as their ruler.
Maybe we shouldn't be trying to convince Isaura, but the common man."
Again a pause. Although he makes no sound, the air carries the suggestion of a disappointed sigh.
"We'd have to know where she's going though, if she's even returning to the country. So it's probably best to stay a while longer, just like you suggested.
Tell me, have you ever seen a live dragon?"
