Glasgow began to describe the worlds edge and the smile on his face grew. it sounded perfect. "Oh, it sounds wonderful. I always feel quite at home in the woods".

His silver companion next spoke of their new king and some unfamiliar recruits; he wondered if any of his acquaintance would be there. and oh, Ophelia was there? "Lady Ophelia?" He queried. The last he had seen of the white queen was long ago at the basin in a friendly spar; He wondered why she had journeyed so far to the edge.
And what of the basin? who was their lady now? and what of Arah? His first friend in this wide new world. While his wanderlust kept him away from home out exploring, he could shyly admit to himself that Arah was a reason he ever crept back to the cold icy Aurora Basin. Where was she now? Birdsong had passed and yet he had not seen his snow-coloured friend.
