Devon was in the Desert looking for shelter and something to drink, He looked at hands and arms as sweat poured down them, he looked up and wondered to himself, "Why did I come here and what did i eat in the past two days". He walked slowly down a hill and fell, "ahhhhhh" he falls unconscious. Devon wakes up and looks around and gets back up, " I need to find someone and fast before i die out here", Devon continues to walk down the very steep hill, he comes upon a lake, "what the duece is this a flipping lake in the flipping dersert, my eyes are playing tricks on me". Devon walks up and takes a sip, "it is a flipping lake", Devon continued to drink and he finally set up camp, He thinks to himself," When will i find Narnia and kill the king, I need this gold", Devon falls asleep.

Susan stumbled on the sand. Never before had she passed this way and now it seemed that never before would she leave it. A confusion in her reading of the stars or the sun had thrown her off the course of the trail she had been meant to follow and now she was trapped in this endless sea of sand. The countless dunes rose and fell like the tides as the powerful wind blew them, changing their shape and leaving her even more lost than before. She could not rely on the stars of night to guide her, they were what had left her stranded here. The mare she had used to come this far had died several nights and miles ago without the water she needed to survive. She had buried the noble beast the best she could, but the wind may still uncover it for the vultures that circled above her head. They followed wanting to tear into her flesh with each tine she fell. Only once one she fell and one swooped after her, talons outstretched and hooked beak opened. It scratched her arm, deep enough to draw blood, but determined to live to see her son again she hit the bird away as hard as she could, nearly killing it, and they left her alone. She picked herself up, her limbs still shaking under the sun's influence. She stepped forward, nearly falling again, and looked up whispering what she saw: water. At first she thought it only to be the sun seeking her destruction through madness. but when she plunged her hands under the surface of the warm, yet still cool, life-giving water she plunged her face into the water breathing the water more than drinking it. It was many moments before she lifted her head and noticed the other man who sat on the other side of this lake. He seemed to have been there a while, already having a small camp assembled near the water. The man she did not actualy reconize, but she had been caught up in so many things she could have simply forgotten. "Who are you?" She asked him at last not wanting to approach him thinking he may have been a friend to Lamont. "Why are you in the desert? Not lost like me I hope."

Devon awoke from his sleep and looked up, " My name is Devon Carter, and yes I am lost, see I been out here for days but I know how to survive." Looking at his daggers the taking a glimpse at her arm, " hmmm from the look things you don't, stay with me and i'll help you with that scar", Taking her arm and warpping it up with a bandage, Devon thought to himself maybe if I keep her safe, she might can lead me to narnia, he looked at her with a stare into her eyes, he couldn't belive such a beautiful woman, he couldn't ask to keep her safe for gold , " Do you know of a place called narnia".

He reaches for you. She pulled away the moment the bandages were laid on her skin. She needed not another man to touch her. His stare made her uncomfortable and it was she who looked away first, looking to the sun who could tell her time but she thought unreliable. He asks of Narnia as if he knows nothing of it. The thought made little since to her. What creature, whether man or beast or demon, did not know Narnia. Even the lands far to the south knew of it because they sometimes take the talking beasts captive once they cross the borders between their lands and they tell stories of the lands where centaurs and minotaurs roam. "I know of Narnia," She said to him, "I know it better than even the beasts that live there now. I am, by gift of Aslan, Queen Susan of old, The eldest daughter of Eve, previous wife of King Caspian X, and wife of Lamont Miraz, son of Tash. I know of Narnia well, but I'll not be returning there. Now I want only to go past this cursed desert only to try to destory the father of my husband. I am hopeing that by Tash's destruction I can make him helpless and kill the boy as well."

Len hurried from the early light of the sun to the desert oasis. There grew a plant that couldn't be found anywhere else. She needed it for a cure that would help Galen. She used the wind to carry her through the desert. She reached the oasis in no time at all. As she spotted the clear waters her eyes drifted over to see two people. Susan? She walked up to the two very cautiously. Bowing her head she looked from Susan to the other. "Susan..."

"Lennia," she hadn't thought to see the wind witch in the middle of the desert. She took another drink of the water and looked back to the newcomer leting her thoughts drive her to unjust anger. "Why have you come here? I trusted you to care for Galen while I could not and now you wander the desert. Go back, now, and take care of him. I don't want him left alone ever. If he is Lamont could find him and take him again and I'll not have it. Go back to Narina."

"I can't," She told him staring at her arm. He used a magic she had never known before, one that had to be spoken before it could be used. Even then she could not sort out his intentions. He said he was sent to kill Caspian. Whether he wanted done or not he could still deside to carry out his mission for the sake of family, friends, or his own life. But he did want Lamont killed as well. "Lamont is too powerful. He and his master both stood up to Aslan and survived. I'm trying to get to the lands south of here to kill their diety, Tash, who he believes is the source of his power. Even if he isn't it would still hurt his confidence and reduce his army simply because Tash supplies him with demons willing to give what heartless lives they have to him."

Devon waited on her answer".

"I don't even know if Tash can be beaten." She told him droping her head and drinking again. "For all I know this could be a suicide mission. I can't ask you to come if it means your death. Sorry, but I can't do it. I'll spend the night here and afterward see if I can find my way back without gettin killed."
((OOC:NEVER text talk in posts. I can take alot of things but never that. Only in cbox, and even then use it as little as possibe cuz half of it means nothing, or in OOC))

He came at her and she jumped aside, falling in her weakness as he used the same forgien magic that he had used to heal her. She was at least happy that she had made the right move and not have trusted him right away. She reached behind her and gripped both her bow and an arrow and rose to a position where it could be readied so she could fire. He had to have been to far away for him to reach her without getting shot in the chest. He was close enough that even if he wore an iron breastplate the arrowhead would have pierced it as though it were paper. But he wore no such protection making the arrows even more deadly. "Why did you attack me?" She asked him hoping that having him at the point of her arrow would keep him from charging again, "I am not your enemy nor do I want to be. As far as I know I have done nothing to wrong you unless you side with my husband. Now I ask again: Why did you attack me?"
((OOC: avoid present tence - it dosn't match and I don't like it so it's not allowed here. All third person past tence))

Devon looked at the sand and but away his daggers," I'm srry I don't know what happened to me" Devon walked towards her, " Protective Spirit", not know if she would let go of the arrow, Devon looked at his necklace then to her," Take this, I can't control it this is why I attacked you, it transforms me into a different person, so take it so i won't cause anymore harm". Devon hands the necklace to her.

She stood but did not lower her arrow. She looked only for a moment to her side and then returned her gaze to the boy. He used his magic again and though she felt no change figured it would protect him from her arrows simply because of the way it was worded. But then, what human could summon a spirit to protect them unless it was a demon. She stepped back as fear and rage hardened her and she was more than ready to fire, "Keep your magic, I want nothing to do with it. You said you had orders to kill the king. who gave them to you and why? Being that you seem to hate Lamont for what he did to your family I can go so far as to trust it wasn't him you agreed to serve. Who sent you?"

Len rolled her eyes at Susan's demand. She watched the little exchange between the two not wanting to get involved. She walked over to the waters edge. There was a bright purple and blue flower that she picked and placed safely in the bag at her hip. She turned to Susan. "I am no longer your servant, nor am I Caspian's. I told your before Galen will determine my fate, and maybe even yours" She then turned to the boy. "Learn to control the magic if you possess it. If it can be thrown away just like that then it is not very strong" She said referring to the fact that he seems to change into a different person.
