A plan felt good. A plan felt right to Dom. Whatever the merits of splitting up might have been, Dom was grateful to have not one, but three tasks dangled in front of her. It was something to focus on. It was something to do. She had no tongue for prophecy, nor long education in the symbols of the faith to think too deeply about the prophecy that Lucas had offered. She believed him, of course. However, her mind shifted to pragmatic concerns. She saw a design, a blueprint like that of a great ship, faintly visible. They had to follow the design the Scion of Time had woven. 

All three tasks laid before them seemed worthwhile and good. Yet Dom felt herself drawn easily. For all her training, she was still no true fighter. She did not relish the idea of facing monsters. By the same measure, she was no socialite, no student used to wandering the hallowed halls of an institution of higher learning. She had no great desire to venture into the world of academia. The choice was not hers alone though. She trusted Sara and she wished to hear her thoughts. Her Templar had as much of a right to choose as she did, experienced as she was.

Shifting in her chair, Dom turned towards Sara, speaking low, [color=D3D3D3]"What does your heart tell you, Sara? Where do you wish us to go?"[/color]

[color=a187be]"I believe now, more than ever, the people need their faith strengthened. Bringing peace to lost souls is a fine duty for a scion."[/color]

[color=D3D3D3]"I agree! I completely agree! Let us go, let us be peacemakers,"[/color] Dom said, a true smile appearing on her face as she placed a hand happily on Sara's forearm, practically jumping with excitement.

Offering an apologetic cough, as she summoned a more serious posture, Dom addressed the gathered Scions and Templars once again, [color=D3D3D3]"We will travel with the Scion of Air and her Templar to Croia. To restore the peace and convince the spirits to return to their well-earned rest is a fine task. I am not so talented in the matter of gifts as Her Holiness Hollyhock, but I am told I am quite the listener. And none can doubt Dame Sara's faith. Such strong faith will no doubt be vital when parleying with the spirits."[/color]
