Umbria looked out a window, thinking about her kinsman who was to meet her in the Green Dragon. She spoke again "It does seem like we are waiting a long time during these passing days".
She looked into the fire where her papers were burning. "it took me 30 hours to write those documents, but in all ends they are not worth reading" She took from her napsack a map and started glazing over it. Suddenly she looked up in realization "Im famished, come to think of it I have not eaten in almost a week, how could that possibly happen?"
