The night was falling and the village, as usual, started getting louder as the night came. Every evening before they fell asleep they would tell stories from their lands. Funny stories, or sad. Kendra started it with Isaa and then one by one everyone started telling the stories.
While they had fun, Kendra suddenly stood up and just patted Isaa that almost jumped in fright. ''I just felt some changes and need to see what is going on. If you want to come with me but don't alarm others.''
Isaa nodded. ''then I will come out in few moments as well. Let them have some fun.''
She sat down again and everyone relaxed as they saw their reaction. Anita passed by and smiled. ''What happened.''
Isaa just waved her hand. ''You know Kendra. She and her ideas. She got one and wants to be alone to think about it. I am sure she will tell us about it when she is done. let her be alone.''
Alice nodded and actually everyone heard that as Isaa rose he voice bit higher. Somehow every time Kendra had an idea they would gain new knowledge so leaving her alone with her thoughts is the best idea.
Isaa then patted her stomach. ''I am going to eat something. I have no idea why humans become so hungry every time winter is about to arrive.'' Everyone chuckled as most of them had snacks in front of them.
She came out and rushed to Kendra that waited for her. ''So many lies. Oh well, about new ideas. It's not a lie tho.''
''And me being hungry again, is not lie as well.'' With a chuckle, Isaa patted her stomach was grumbling could be heard. Kendra laughed and rushed to the corner of the nearby forest. ''It seems someone is knocking on the barrier. Let's see who.''
When they arrived they saw a familiar person standing there and bowing slightly to them. ''I am Tao. Unfortunately, I still belong to that sect that Illo is from.'' He saw change their face and shook his head. ''I came to ask for help. Not for them. For one of our females, Naila.''
Kendra stepped forward. ''Did they harm her?'' Her voice became a tad deeper and her countenance scarier.
Tao sighed. ''No. She did it herself. She overused her powers and I think she will get sick seriously if no one helps her. I can feel powers coming from both of you. I am somehow sure that your sect might have a healer. Is it possible to heal her? I will do any task you give me if you could help her.''
Isaa scrunched her eyebrows. ''We are not going to that village...''
He shook his head. ''Of course not. there is a huge cave on the mountain. I am a wind user. I can bring the healer up to help her and safely bring her back. I promise.''
Kendra shook her head. ''Your promises mean nothing to us, senior Tao. To tell you the truth we like Naila. So I will bring our healer alone. Go back to the mountain and wait in front of the cave. We will be there soon.''
''As you wish.'' He bowed deeply and flew away easily while Kendra held her eyes coldly at him. ''He is overconfident that we will accept him as well, only because he is the double user? What is in his head, should I check?''
Isaa shook her head. ''The last time you had nightmares for days. Let it be. Guildmaster can handle those things. If he wants to join in it doesn't matter to us. As long he doesn't try anything against you I do not care anything else.''
They went back and explained everything to their people. After a few pieces of advice, they chose to take Sirus, Isaa, Cynthia, Kimi and Kendra to the mountain. Just in case few idiots have stupid idea to attack them.
When they flew over Tao was more than surprised seeing all those people together on the strange cloud. But living his life for a long time he calmed quickly and had a calm expression when they arrived. ''She is inside. Be careful about sharp edges.''
One by one entered the cave and were surprised by the amount of food gathered on one side. He smiled sheepishly. ''Told you. She overused herself. Naila is a bit stubborn. When she wants to do something, she is doing it until the end. Can you help her, please? She is there.''
He pointed at the corner of the cave where the fire was slowly crackling and a woman that laid on the floor and had only coat over her body. The women looked at him with angry eyes, making him feel scared suddenly. ''What? Why are you angry? I...''
Sirius shook his head and just tapped his shoulder. ''You let her lay down on solid cold stone. It seems you never had any female around you?''
Tao just scratched his head. ''I had servants. The floor was warm when she fell asleep. I covered her as I thought that would be the best idea.'' His voice became smaller and smaller as he saw the women rushing towards her and shaking their heads.
Sirius coughed. ''As man then never had lived harsh life you probably do not know anything about the female body. Females need to be cared for. They can handle a lot, but sleeping on cold stone is big no. Come, let's go to the forest and I will help you make the bed before they do not start tripping. '' He pointed at the group of women that stared at Tao with daggers.
When they left the anger dissipated and Anita almost laughed out loud. ''Good, we took Sirius. He will teach him all the things he needs to know.''
Kendra looked around and smiled. ''This place is indeed not bad. Good idea. Hmmm. Should we help them?''
Everyone started talking about it while Naila opened her eyes dazedly. Dream? What kind of strange dream...
