Lord Protector, Her Ladyship Verchovai Daxia Yurisdotter
[Daxia serves DAYALA... the GM ESPECIALLY should get this right]

“Same at Temple. Dazi get stupid tasks.” Then she laughed. “Always lessons in stupid tasks! Takes long time to find sometimes.”

The backward, topsy turvy, dusk-is-morning life of the Starwatchers made sense. One couldn’t watch Her children and document their activities while She was outshining them.

The darkness of the Jambles night was not absolute. Even with the moons tucked behind craggy outcroppings, the stars themselves provided light. Not enough to read by, certainly not enough to travel by, but Daxia could see the silhouettes of her companions and the village’s structures.

Oh, dear Goddess, the stars...

“Hoi,” Daxia whispered, awe vibrating in the sound of her voice.

She nudged Bekkah.

“Go. Eat. Be warm. Rest. Take others.

“Dazi climb, see...”

She gestured to the star-filled sky. So many Sisters... For a Dayalan, it was a most profound and holy sight. It almost seemed as though she could reach up and touch them. Yet, the display was one that brought the magnitude of Dayalan losses into stark relief — it was one thing to intellectually know that tens or hundreds or thousands upon thousands of Dayalans had died since Time began, it was another thing entirely to see those numbers arrayed across the night sky.

The past year had strengthened a nightly habit that began the night Morning Star found her — her eyes swung to the Dark Patch and the two stars shining there. She smiled and silently greeted Tashka and Linette.

Then she gazed at the carved stairs for a moment before turning to Morning Star. The unicorn would do whatever he wished. She shrugged and started up the stairs.

"The Pancreator helps those who help themselves."

It was one of the most ancient proverbs.

"You don't seem to understand. A girl's life is at stake. The future of this ship is at stake. You need to stop thinking in terms of what you cannot do, but in what you can do. You have to stop letting the world push you around like a piece of flotsam on the water. I may be a priestess and I used to be a minstrel, but I am not here for your entertainment.

"You need to take responsibility for your own actions."

The Priestess drew herself up.

"That would be a good step forward.

"You should have taken that step instead of shrugging your shoulders.

"I should not be the one to tell you this.

"Do it."

His head moved as if mounted on a swivel when Aaron shouted his warning and he glanced at his other friend to make sure what he planned to do.

"I'm with you," he said, gestured for Nic to join them and then took off running behind the other two, having a hard time to keep up with their speed while he tried to serve as rear guard at the same time.

Muddy, that is a good one

Ken,

You are not the only one. He and I would discuss T.V. shows we were both watching, and last night I saw the end of Blood and Treasure, thought about him during the whole episode.

Been a fan for a long time! George Michael fronted Queen for the tribute to Freddie and he could measure up but didn't want to step up. Alas, no longer a possibility. But I followed Adam all through American Idol, really liked him then and he is pretty good fronting Queen. They did a Christmas concert in the UK a couple of years back which was televised. Watched it all, excellent!

Interesting, might check it out then.

Anyone else remember my first love??

I have had them on VHS for quite a while, but have been reluctant to 'trust' them the my =very= old tape player. But I just got them on DVD <vbg> So I am having a lot of fun for a while now!!! <chuckle>

Anyone else lover her?

Correct! Thanks Aqua!

Official confirmation coming up!
