That silvered, nascent inch of day had come. The moon had set and the sun not yet risen; stars paled in the softly rising light and blinked out.

She gathered the minds of the companions to her. Most still turned in fretful dreamings, and to these she sent out a soothing murmur that blew away the darkling mists.

She heard the whisper of the Man's mind and it's sorrow. Sleep, now. she sent to him. There will be need for a clear mind, undulled by weariness, this day. I will stand watch for now.

Gently laying the sleeping dragon to one side, she stood and stretched, and faced the West. Regrets and doubts were put aside; memories locked within the silvered light of her eyes.

Bowing once, with hand to heart, she turned and went below to begin the day.
