meanwhile
Rosseiliantiel's sleep was disturbed by a sudden commotion on deck. She poked her head up from her bed of sails and looked around.
The first thing she saw was Birdland and the 'little dragon'. Then she saw a tall, blonde elf whom she recognized as Legolas, who had an odd expression on his face.
Having a characteristic distrust of Royals, systems and all things official, she ducked back into the pile of sails. Then she snuck off to find Celeaewen. However, she was distracted on her way by a washbasin. Seeing in its reflectioin that her hair was tangled and she had dirt on her face, she quickly washed her hands, face, and hair, which she hastily combed with her fingers, before she continued looking for Celeae.
She found a sleepy looking Celeae on the far side of the deck. Celeae was staring astonishedly at Legolas.
"Celeae! Over here! Are you all right?" Rosseil cried happily, forgetting momentarily that she wanted to be quiet and unnoticed.
"Rosseil! I was beggining to wonder wether you had made it on, I couldn't find you. Why is Legolas on here?" Rosseil looked confounded.
"No idea. But what happened to Bird, is she okay? Why is the little dragon over there? I'm confused..."
"Rosseil, you're always confused. But anyways it seems that Legolas shot Birdland."
"WHAT? SHOT? AI! Is she...alive? Why shot? Huh?"
"Angara seems to be helping her. But I really have no idea why he shot her."
"Um, I think we should find out. I think. Maybe I'll just go back to bed? No, I'm not tired anymore. We had might as well go over there..."
And they joined the mystified crowd around Birdland.
