Xyveris and Cayn would take note of Liz when she entered the room.  Xyveris would set aside the child, which had grown to a good size in the time she'd been caught up with other things.  "Liz," Xyveris said.  "It's good that you are here.  The storm outside is terrible.  I'm having Cayn make some preparations out and about within the grounds.  Will you help find your brother?  I don't want him out in this storm."  Obviously Xyveris wasn't about to tell her the true reasons he didn't want Brian out there.<br/><br/>"I must depart," Cayn said.  "Stay safe, Liz.  Get Brian, and get him inside here as soon as you can."  Cayn would depart in a flash of smoke, sending his will out amongst those within the Night Parade to give warning.  The hunters would strike soon, and they would have to be prepared for the assault.  The stronger amongst the Night Parade would move through the rainy night, gathering around them those that would help stave off the assault.  Wolfe was there with a few of his kind, the smell of wet animal pungent around them, but they'd fight like berserkers.
