<br/><strong>Rowena country life and strange pursuits <br/></strong><br/><br/>Rowena was most intrigued by her feelings and the strange foreboding she sensed she had not expected such, but she once again found herself slightly delighted by the sensation it was a confirmation of things and a proof of sorts of things she often questioned.  The fears and horrors she experienced in her dreams she had been trained to confront and question,  Rowena handled them unlike others for she not only expected them from time to time she was intrigued by them and of finding answers within them.  Rowena's Father had well prepared her for such things and if he had instilled anything in Rowena in raising her it was an almost indomitable courage and questioning nature, Rowena could not forget such things she had to explore them she had to find a truth or answer among them.<br/><br/>So unlike others rather than try forget such things Rowena reveled in them and obsessed over the meaning she detached herself from what it might mean for her, instead focusing upon the thrill of the quest to understand them.  And so Rowena found herself busy with the unseen once more and made sure she was left alone and not disturbed unless necessary, she found herself once more forgetting  time and eating at strange hours find her appetite absent the all consuming thirst for answers driving her will. Books where of little use to her and those she had brought with her did not really pertain to such subjects, so she relied upon her intellect and thoughts her skills as a medium and prophet trying to open herself more to these dreams and signs.<br/><br/>She barely noticed the raven and when she did she paid it no mind, it was but a bird after all and this was the country it was not strange for a bird to be here. The howls did slightly startle her and break her concentration for a moment but again she did not connect them logically shooing them away, this was the country such was to be expected.  The knock at the door and the voice of Rose brought Rowena back to her senses however and she glanced over wondering if she had forgotten breakfast or dinner this time, perhaps it was another brew of tea no she had not requested such and the tone seamed insistent. Rose would not disturb her unless it was something of importance she stood from her chair and headed to her door.<em>"Yes Miss McMullock what is it ?"</em>Rose opened the door slightly surprised to see Rowena up and about she smiled faintly at her and curtsied<em>"I do be your pardon Lady Rowena but there is a lad at the door, who insists to speak with you he will not go away and is most insistent that he speak with you."</em><br/><br/>Rowena paused for thought for a brief moment Rose stood patiently awaiting Rowena's reply<em>"Shall I have him sent away Ma'am?"</em>Rowena shook her head and smiled to Rose<em>"No not at all Rose, please invite the lad in an make him comfortable fetch something to eat and drink for him won't you.  And inform the lad that ill be down shortly to speak with him, take note of how he act's won't you Rose make sure he is not left alone be a good host to our guest until I arrive to speak to him." </em>Rose curtsied and nodded in response to Rowena before leaving to do as she asked, Rowena returned to her room and checked her appearance making sure that she was fit for visitors even if it was merely a lad.<br/><br/>Assured that she was fit for a visitor Rowena headed from her room and out to find the lad she stopped once she was in view of him and waived away Rose.<em> "Thank you Rose I shall speak with the lad now"</em>once Rose had departed Rowena glanced to the boy again<em>"So what is so urgent that you require to speak with me then lad?" </em><br/><br/><br/>
