"Brandon did the same, except he collapsed backwards".
In the morning-
Brandon: What the heck? This doesn't feel like the cold floor of the forge that me and Aiden fell asleep on!
Lief: That's because it isn't. This is the forge's guestroom.
"Brandon looks around and sees Aiden"
Brandon: Thank god.
Lief: So, you two ready to leave? I know I am.

"They have a quick breakfast and set off".
Brandon: So! Our first goal is the Forests of Silence, then Barda?
Barda: Indeed it is!

Brandon: You're not the only one.
Lief: I'm excited and nervous.
"They arrive at the forest".
Barda: Hmm, left or right? There should be a signpost here but there isn't.
Lief: maybe it's this.
"he pulls out a sign hidden under some leaves and they look at it".
Brandon: Okay, so Wenn Del lies that way. It is our quickest route to the forests and the first gem we seek.
Lief: When Del what?
"Barda slaps Lief on the back of the head".
Lief: Ow! Barda!
Barda: We don't have time for stupidity, Lief. Let's get on with this.

Ooc: I'm only doing this because it would take them days otherwise to get to the forests.
Brandon: Right, let's go.
"he extends his hand and the beautiful glittering sword he had earlier appears".
Lief: Hey! Who took my sword!
Brandon: Oh, crap.
"he stops thinking about it and it goes back to Lief. he then thinks about a different one and Barda's sword vanishes".
Barda: Brandon, this is seriously getting stupid.
Brandon: All right, all right.
"he stops thinking about Barda's sword and instead pictures the sword he originally used to kill James. It instantly appears at his side and this time no-one else's sword vanishes".
Brandon: I must have been visuallizing Lief's sword originally, then Barda's then finally my own. Lol.

May hears brandon

May smiles

May makes lunch for her kids

May then goes out side

May: Please come home soon brandon

Brandon: Let's just go.
"They start to walk down the path that leads to the forest".

A little while later-
Brandon: Someone or something is watching us.

Ooc: Ols. The boy Dain, first met in book 4, but joins Lief and the others in book 6, is one. A Grade 3 Ol, to be exact.
Brandon: Yikes!
"They get stung and get carried into the forest".
Brandon: Ugh. Where are we?
