Trust

Jana wandered out of the stone circle, her eyes darting to every movent her ears adjusting to every new sound, she saw strange glows on the horizon far whiter than any fire , stars seemed to move and blinking red lights in the sky made her wary of the sky, she almost walked into the strangest of borders metal woven into a wall that yielded as she pulled, still not beyond her skill to climb, she was thankful at least her own talents seemed unaffected even if her spells and the magic of her items seemed to have vanished.

Vaulting down to the other side a voice called out, the man seemed to be holding an illuminated wand, and thankfully ,a fact she didnt question, he seemed to speak common,

"Where am i?" She asked not worrying how strange it may sound.

"Salisbury plain, thats some accent you have, what were you doing in the henge?"

Her mind reels as the light he holds shines in her face, blinding her briefly "sorry " she hears him say as the light lowers "I've heard of no place on Oerth, do the druids still tend the circle?"

"Earth ... " he seems to correct her "If you class dancing , tending the circle then some do twice a year, you a druid then? Dressing up for some festival?"

"Dressing up?" Her head begins to hurt , in the dark things are even more difficult to understand and she is at a total loss, her mind spins and her legs wobble, she feels his hand on her arm trying to support her.

"Thank you ?..."

"Nathan"

"My thanks Nathan, i am Jana .." she wobbles again

"Look miss, Yana... my home isnt far, you can rest there if you like maybe things will be clearer in the morning"

His words make sense and at the moment she has little choice, taking his arm she walks with the man, they soom come to a dirt road, Nathan's cottage sits on its own, she jumps as a light blinks on far brighter than a torch, his home is strange too, she has never seen the like or design, Nathan too is dressed strangely and wearing such thin spectacles, he must be rich indeed.

The inside is even weirder, she tries to hide her awe as they go inside, he touches the wall and the hall is illiuminated as if day, patterned coverings on the wall and framed pictures that almost look real "Are you the artist? " she points.

"I took the picture if thats what you mean" he smiles

She procceds, the place full of wonders that makes her head hurt more, she watches him, realising a small switch turns on the magical light, at least magic exists she thinks, but her head pounds worse "could i lay down..."

"Of course" he leads her upstairs to a doorway opening it to a small room with a single bed sitting on it she has never felt anything so soft "oh hang on" he vanishes for a minute bringing back some form of clothing, "I guess you havent got any nightwear" he smiles till he realises hes staring at the young woman "the bathroom is at the end of the hall if you need it".

He leaves her to it, going back downstairs, Jana sighs looking round the unfamiliar room, stripping out of her clothing she lifts the clothing he brough her, so soft she thinks, pulling the top over her head and surprised how much it stretches, then pulling on the pants that seem to cling onto her hips of there own accord she pulls back the strangely thick and very warm sheet and lays down, sinking into the bed, her mind quickly succumbs to sleep.
