[Felix observes the strangenes of Shar, waves to Sheeta, and addresses
Silverbreeze.]
(and by now probably is wishing he could meet some characters with names that
don't start with 'S')

>Without waiting for a reply he continues "There are others here who would be
>of more use to you at your side battling the evil powers you indicated, but
>I may well be your best hope of returning to the battleground.  For I have

>it is you have to go and I will study what wardings I would have to overcome.
>Meanwhile, why don't you try to enlist a few companions for this quest?"

>Felix stops and looks at Silverbreeze, and again takes a look around the inn.

Shar clears her throat and speaks to the two occupants of the table.

"If you wish my help, I would offer my services to your quest. Your tale," she
nods at Silverbreeze, "saddens me, for long ago I experienced the loss of many
close to me, and I would do all that I could to prevent such a loss befalling
another."

She sips at her coffee again, and refills the cup.

"As for you", she says as she turns to Felix, "your studies offer me hope of
returning to my home. Though," she pauses "there are things that must be done
in this world, I must return to my own world eventually, and you appear to be
my best hope." She unconciously fingers the silver crucifix around her neck
as she speaks.

"I fear, however, that my magical skills are non-existent. I am merely a
physical warrior. However..."

Shar looks around the room again, carefully making sure that there are no
observers to their parley, before whispering in a low voice.

"I must congratulate you both on your perception... I am indeed not what I
appear to be. I was, once, but that was a long time ago. My memories of my past
are vague, however, and I feel that part of my purpose here is to recover them,
though I know not how."

Shar looks from Felix to Silverbreeze and back again... waiting to see how
they react to her statments.
