I’d been in Illyria for a few days when word of the plague in Terre d’Ange arrived. Fear struck deep inside me and I went searching out more information. The gossip seemed to agree that it was limited to the City of Elua for the most part and that the gates were closed to everyone but healers and a few others.
I had already spoken with my parents about Kendrick, so they almost seemed to be expecting it when I returned to their house and said I needed to go home. With their help I arranged transport on the first ship to Caerdicca Unitas from where I would travel overland. They promised to arrange for the things I couldn’t carry quickly to be sent after me.
The next morning they saw me off at the docks and only the sadness at having to leave them so shortly after coming could surface through the fear I still felt. There were tears in my eyes as I watched them as the ship pulled away, and there were fresh tears in my eyes as I turned to look in the direction of Terre d’Ange and everyone else I cared for in the world.
