As the medics worked on Lars, Ferrin Trumped me. I brought him through, and he suggested getting some food. We agreed and Ferrin Trumped us to somewhere in Shadow. There was some commotion, as Lars was not only lacking clothing, but Trumped in laying on what they called a buffet table as well.
From there we left for Amber, where we met up with Alice. Ferrin, Alice, and Lars left for Shadow to get some rest and recuperation. I went back to the front lines, as my duty was there. I was glad to find that nothing was happening.
Compared to the time I had been spending recently the lack of movement was almost painful. I visited my mother's resting place during that time, an event that did not waste much Amber time.
Finally one morning we were met with wave upon wave of strange vermin like creatures. During the battle I called in both Lars and Julian. Even with their help the battle lasted well into the night. When the fighting had stopped we had lost a little more ground and a decent amount of troops.
In the light of the next day we were faced with troops. Lars identified them as belonging to house Hellstrum. The same house that sent their best warriors against my father. At the same time the Tritons emerged from the water and started attacking the city. Due to our loses from the vermin creatures I was unable to send reinforcements.
After more fighting Julian gave us leave to get recovered. I took Lars to my home Shadow. This was the first time that I actually interacted with the people there. I usually only go to speak with my mother's memory.
After a week or so, Lars took me to this Shadow. He spends most of his time here when he can. It reminds me a little of my old home in it's warlike aspects. The games they play here are intriguing, and have kept me busy while my body recovered.
Now we have healed and relaxed enough to return to Amber, and all our troubles.
