Cree looked up from her seat in the corner. She had prefered the solitude the corner had to give. She noticed at the bar was who she was waiting on. Fáinu had finally arrived. She drained the last of the ale she had in her mug. She knew it was still a bit too early to be having ale but she didn't care for today she was leaving. Cree hadn't been able to sleep during the night. Always she was seeing Avalon. The bird was lost to her now.
Cree stood up and walked over to the bar. She placed her left hand on Fáinu's right shoulder. She thought he would sense her presence but instead the elf jumped as if startled by her sudden appearance. "Its about time you got here." Cree had a smile on her face fathoms long. She was glad to be getting away from this place. She was finally going to be out in the world. "So are you ready to go?"
