For some odd reason Crystal felt safer now that she had made more of a friend and ally instead of an enemy. She kept a watchful eye on Ferethor, but felt at ease at Athren's side. She had no idea why, just the fact that he wouldn't hurt her and had been so kind was enough to ease her already tense and troubled mind.
More then that excitement was pulsing through her veins. She had never felt this excited for any such reason, but she did. This would be a quest that would take them all in a new direction. It was sure to bring out the worst and best of all the people that had joined their company, but she wasn't totally afraid of that fact. It would bring out new enemies and foes, but that was excepted on quests such as these.
She wondered who else would betray Maen and the ones loyal to her when this was all through. She could guess, but she knew that guessing would only make her paranoid and the people that she would be watching would be the same people that wouldn't betray them. It would be someone they least excepted when the time came. She laughed inwardly at the thought. It was always that way, she knew that better then anyone in the company. She had been through it countless times before.
Yet, a new beginning was dawning in her mind. A new beginning of hope and vegenence for all. A new start for herself and of course the money wasn't all bad. She smiled as they walked.
