"We leave in an hour and half for the mage guild castle. Kate, I hope all of us will return by the end of the week. You, will hold down the manor while we are gone."<br/><br/>Kate set her fork down and looked into her father's amber eyes. "I am not staying behind anymore. I am a mage now and can help Feras find and release Brevine. Brevine has called me her sister dragonhart. That is a rare honor.  Feras and I can protect one another. That way Horen will be able to fight without worry."<br/><br/>"Katie I don't like this, your being in danger. I had hoped you would be a master mage before taking on something like this. "<br/><br/>"Papa, there is no time to argue. I can take out five guards at once. That gives Feras more energy and mana. Besides I have been taught by the best swordsman in the kingdom. I get to prove myself."<br/><br/>"The first sign of trouble you get her safe Feras." He looked at Kate sternly. Lyons continued, "Lads get rested. Tomorrow is a long day. I will be going and making sure you have backup. Horen, you have time to back out. I understand your decision to fight."<br/><br/>Lyons had Marie to fix him tea. He placed cinnamon bun and few pieces of fruit on his plate. "Magic makes me nervous. Portal sickness is much like sea sickness. It wears off much faster and not as bad."
