"Well hi," she said with a wide smile, "Yes, Miss Snow is callin on y'all. I don't see where your friend went..." Marian said, looking about, "But I'll take you to her for now."

She turned the girl about face and guided her out the Library back towards Snow and Kusa were waiting. "I'm Marian by the by. From El Paso, in the great state of Texas." she explained, "I been round here a couple years now, but I'm gone a lot on missions. Reconnaissance type things, or re-a-pro-priatin' missing things as were stolen from members. That kinda thing. Lots of travel. Got a nice horse though, Bodaway's the fastest filly most folks ever seen. Right pretty too," she said wistfully, "Got her from a Shaman whose life I saved."
