Lloyd looked out from Crumbling Cliffs and grinned. "So thats the island we are not allowed near huh? And we are supposed to stay off the Cliffs as well. I wonder who's going to show up to stop me." Lloyd leaped onto the highest point of Crumbling Cliffs, Glosdraug right behind him. "Look at it Glosdraug. I'm thinking we should buy a boat and head for that island. What do you think?" Glosdraug looked up at Lloyd and nodded. Its a good idea. But what would we do with the crew once we got there? "Kill 'em most likely."

"Now that's a little harsh isn't it?" A girl, about seventeen, was sitting behind him, her face covered by a curtin of silvery hair. She was bent almost double, playing with a small Cheetah cub, who was insisting on trying to catch a wing or tail from one of the two birds that sat on her shoulders. One was a swan, and another was an albatross. "To kill them. Oh, and for what'll stop you, try fifteen fully grown dragon's with firestone." She looked up, but only so she could see him, the hair still hid almost all of her face. "And belive me, I could have them here in an instant, even if their riders didn't approve."

"Try me," replied Lloyd as he turned around and looked at the girl. His mouth was formed in a small smile. "I'm sure they would be happy to become blind before they kill me and Glosdraug."

"I'll make sure to mention to them to have protective eye covering." The girl said, nodding. "The Weyrwoman will be so pleased." A faint smile could be seen though the hair, and her eyes flashed as she looked up at the man quickly.

"I'm sure she will." Lloyd looked back at the island. "Better tell them to make sure the eye covering is the strongest metal they can find. Otherwise it won't last long."

"She knows." The girl smiled, her mouth twisting into a smirk. She lifted her head, and tossed aside her hair. Ice blue eyes stared at him, cool, calm, collected, confident, and there was something deeper there, some understanding which made her gaze unnearving, and penitrating. The smile wasn't helping either, it was the same as the eyes, confident and calm. "I'm Inuna, the ambassador for water hold."

"I am a Wanderer. You may know my name in time," replied Lloyd, as he looked down at Inuna. Glosdraug settled down at his feet.

"Your names Lloyd." Inuna said with a shrug. "And I don't care." She put an arm out, and put her weight on it, laying back on the stone she was sitting on. "But I do care about what your going to do. It's not a nice thing..." The smirk came back.

"How did you find my name?" asked Lloyd as he looked down at Inua. "And I can't have the crew coming back here and telling you what they found, now can I?"

"Oh, I don't know." Inuna said, waving ehr hand at his first comment. "It just came to me I guess." She stopped, and smiled, normaly, "What Crew, Pray?"

"The one I will hire to sail my ship," replied Lloyd as he turned back to look at the island.

"If you get that far." Inuna said, reaching down, and picking up the cub who had decided to scammper off. "Which you won't. Belive me." She made the cub sit in her lap, and watched it for a while, a kind smile on her face as it fell asleep.

"And why do you say that?" asked Lloyd, not turning to look at Inuna.

"Well your up against a entire Weyr full of dragon's, the entire world of Lys, light, air, water, earth, and fire hold, Kila, and not least, me." She didn't look at him either. "Cause for concern all of that. Some of those thing's I mentioned arn't easily defeted foe. Actually none of them are easily defeted."

"They all have a weakness," replied Lloyd as he smiled and tighted his cloak around him.
