The tall Scathachian purchased a rather brawny steed with gold coinage. It would feel very good to own her own horse again. Given the directions illustrated on her map, it would be nearly an hour or two ride to the holy Sanctuary in RhyDin.
It had been nearly three years since she had seen Isuelt. Her assignments had sent her halfway across the civilized world. Always loved to travel, Serena did. It would, nevertheless, be grand to see Issy and the other Sisters again. Far too much time had gone by.
She had arrived in Rhydin early last night by sea, and everyone in town certainly had seemed cordial enough. Serena was however troubled by the grim rumors which she had overheard that evening. A great deal of low talk regarding some horrific murders in someplace known as the "West End", and the direct Scathachian involvement with them had quickly reached her ear as she ate a late dinner at the Inn.
"It looks as though I arrived at the correct time." she thought to herself.
If someone was committing murders and implicating the honorable warriors of Scathach, then action must assuredly be taken to clear their name. Furthermore, who was this new foe who would deface the Sisters so blatantly' As a fellow Judge and a friend she would not let any of her holy order be blamed for something so heinous.
The wind gently pushed her dark hair back as she rode towards the Scathachian Sanctuary. She had much on her anxious mind. First things first, however. There would be plenty of time to deal with these ghastly events as more of the scenario unfolded.
Right now she knew that she truly missed her family...........and she hoped her family had missed her as well.
