Tonight a thief from ShadowStrike returned to Windstorm after promising to go in search of news of any other survivors from Caernarfon. She returned with news that none lingered at the ruins of what used to be Caernarfon and that she tracked parties to Beaumaris. Not being well known within that town, the thief remained outside it's boundaries, seeking further information but getting none.
She then returned to Windstorm with news of the survivors, though unable to give any numbers or names.

*sits at the lil desk I have in the Chambers given to me as a Guest of Caernarfon staying in Beaumaris going over the words on the scroll very quickly to be certain everything is right and legable my penmenship being atroucious sometimes wanting to be sure lady Queen Edie can wread what is written* your Magesty it is with a Glad heart and a joyfull soul that I sit here writening this hopeing it finds you and everyone in WindStorm in high health and good spirits . I have managed to find the people of Caernarfon they are helathy if not a tad deprressed by the circumstances that forced them to leave there homes and transfer to Beaurmaris .As of this writeing of this messsage all I know is that the King and Queen and Royal family are all alive and well the death Count was high at the fall of Caernarfon but you knew that allready.Spirtis are high here because there be talk of takeing Caernarfon back from the inbvaders weathor this will happen or not only the Fates know for certain.In closeing let me say Hip Hip Huray for the ever resilant people of Caernarfon they never seem to let life weigh themn down or ifthey do let it wear on them they refuse to show it. A lot like the people of WindStorm
Your Freind forever

*She had received the letter from Lady Shadowblaide with relief. The King and Queen were safe, as were the rest of the royals. She wondered of the rest she knew. Solaris? How was she? How was Lord Gabriel, who had made her laugh so when she proposed adopting him. The death toll was high, were there any she had known? Guards? Maids? Nobles?
Yet at least many had escaped death and it seemed they were ready to start building up a new life. She smiled at Sonya as she related the tidings. She pointed out the letters where the Lady Shadowblaide had actually written her name. She could nae read them of course, but the mere fact that someone who could had actually used these magical symbols to speak of her was very impressive to the lass. Edfeil had taken her under her own wing until the lady returned for her young ward, teaching her stitches and keeping her busy. Idle hands are the devils earcushion and leaving her with naught to do with give her too much time to worry.
Several of the people that had ended up in Windstorm were.. settling in almost. Some temporary. Others, who had lost too much and too many, looking perhaps to stay. Some of the orphaned children were forming fragile attachments to the families that had taken them in. Things were settling back in a routine somehow.
Mayhap she should send an emmissary to Beaumaris. Mayhap she should go herself.

*After Lady Shadowblaide's letter, there nae had been any more tidings. It took time of course to settle back in, and to make the journey. And nae a doubt the queen had bestowed many a duty 'pon her. Sonya was adjusting well, but nae a day went passed in which she nae asked about her protectress. And there still had nae been a missive from the Queen. Rebuilding... so much rebuilding must be done. Houses for those displaced. Healing for those wounded. And a town that needed to readjust to it's rightful rulers.
Coin might be a problem too, Queen Edfeil realized. There would be soldiers that needed to be payed, servants, craftsmen. And they had left Caerfarnon under siege. It nae was yet harvest season so tribute money would nae be coming in yet. She needed to speak to the queen about that. Windstorm might be able to help. They had had a good harvest for the last three years. And she needed to speak to Lady Shadowblaide on arrangements for Sonya. Aye.. a journey to Beaumaris was needed soon.*
