[Continued from Sailing Home.]
The ships sail into Redport under the cover of night, the thin light from the street lanterns unable to pierce the dark water and what lies nestled in her embrace. Several cloaked figures scurry down the gangplanks and disappear into the city streets, dispersing rather than travel in a pack. Only when they near the temple district do these figures rejoin again as a group, silently avoiding the Sehanine acolytes who tend the grounds of her temple in the wan moonlight.
In contrast to Sehanine, Yondalla's temple grounds are empty--not unusual for a mother goddess whose children ought to be in bed at this hour. The group is able to quickly pinpoint two men standing with a hooded lantern and an air of furtive expectation about them. Tree gives a little cry of happiness when the group draws close enough to identify the men by sight--Luther and Rik--and surges forward to throw her arms around Luther's neck, hugging him tightly.
