"Okay, the Dreaming.. we can find something" SHe ponders

"I mean, why isn't looking for an adventure good enough?"

"Well, I heard it helps if you ahve a goal in the dreaming, but I guess an adventure IS the goal so.. works out " A nod "I mean you can 'find' adventure"

"Right!"

"Thought about visiting Thyle"

"But.. Ooo " A look and a smile "On second thought I know were to go"

"Thyle sounds like it's full of dickbags."

"Okay, We skip Thyle... how about an island of horses"

"Ooo!"

"Like Chincoteague?"

"Misty's Island?"

"What's that?" Siv does NOT know

"OH, oh, you have to read them! Torrin gave them to me, they're amazing... see, there's an island of wild horses, and then there's Misty, who is the wildest and free-est and most spirited of them all and she's a palomino pinto with a white patch on her side..."

"Okay, okay, sounds like we have a goal for sure.." A grin

"I'll bring them over tomorrow so you can read them..."

"This is gonna be mandatory isn't it?" brow arch

"What?"

"I mean, you like reading okay, don't you? I don't like too many books, but these ones are, like, really good..."

"I'm teasing, I'd be honored to read something special to you" She says

"I wonder if we could take the horses to the dreaming..."

"Fae horses can go, enchant em. Stormwake can race along trods like you can"

"Or we try that saddle..."

"Maybe share it. Star's a jealous type."

"Or willow whisper, oh I dont' do that"

"I can, but not anything good. Not horses."

"Are you telling me you want to quest by horse and not ship?" Worried look

"Oh, I mean willow whisper. I can't talk to animals at all."

"Or chimera."

"We'll get there." She says

"I mean, we have some time to practice maybe?"

"I can talk to rocks."

"And food."

"Hey, rocks are important, ask KLump"

"True!"

"One day, I shall be able to transform into a magnificent kraken and scare whole cities ..rar"

"Ha! Wait until I can summon a mighty storm!"

"Between the two of us we'll have that clash o the titans stuff DOWN" A grin

"Totally."

She has been texting for a bit, but then says with a smile "It's gonna be fun"

"So, you wanna Narwhale?"

"Yeah, but I can go on foot, or even horse if you prefer? But to get to that island, the narwhal has an edge"

"Well, true. It was just a thought."

"It's a fair thought. I think I called the last one, so you should totally get a vote on foot or ship or whatever, and where" A nod

"I mean, you don't much care for horses, and I like boats ok..."

"Ships.. i Like.. oh you do that on purpose, and horses are okay. I even like em, just not as much as I do ships. So horses is fine"

"Star likes you. She's spirited."

"Well, we have that in common" She smiles

"Exactly."

"And Stormwake is a bad ass so there's your in common too. " She looks at her cell phone "Oh wow. Gerd is telling mom... they're on their way back. I have a long report ahead of me"

"Oh yeah. But this way you get feedback, too."
