	Kyar smiled as the sprite ran off into the woods.  He looked
over to Aleric, who was also smiling, and sheathed his blade,
returning to the camp.  The two sat talking quietly for a while, still
listening to the strange music.  
	A short time later, Peregrine Wanderer appeared, introducing
herself, and several of the party members introduced themselves as
well.  When Ildamar and Quaeros finished speaking, Kyar introduced
himself as well.
	"My name is Kyar.  I am from a land very far away from here
called Ra-Kati.  In fact, I realy don't know where here is.  My
companion Daelen and myself were battling a great force of demons, and
suddenly an explosion of energy surrouded us.  I woke up several days
later in Generica.
	At that time, Elanon asked me to join him on this adventure,
and I gladly accepted.
	In my own world, I am of an order called the Phadran Knights. 
The Phadra is the natural energy of the world around us, and its
creatures.  Phadran Knights are taught to focus this energy through
their own body, using it to enhance their physical and mental
abilities.  Some of the greatest Phadran Knights can even move objects
through the air, and transport themselves instantly from one place to
another.  Unfortunately, I have been forced to complete my training in
this discipline on my own since my arrival here.  It is slow work."
	Kyar stood up, and with a flash drew his scimitar, cutting a
glittering arc through the air, stopping the blade in front of him.
	"This blade was given to me by my master upon my acceptance
into the order.  It was created by Arvandus, one of the greatest
Phadran Knights to ever walk the land.  It is called Terhal."
	He held the flat of the silver blade out towards the fire, so
the others could see the intricate pattern of the gold dragon weaved
into the blade.  The firelight glinted from the hilt as Kyar
resheathed the sword.
	"Know that we mean you and the other inhabitants of this fair
land no harm, and merely landed here to repair our craft; We soon mean
to be on our way.  Our leader, Elanon, should return shortly, and he
can tell you more.  But if he is in danger, as you suggest, shouldn't
you take us to him?"
	"There is no need for that." a voice called from the edge of
the camp. Elanon and Segoi then walked up to the campfire. . .
