~Anna sitting a respectable distance from Nerissa and Karnl at the lake~<br/><br/>Anna was content to watch from the side lines as Nerissa and Karnl spoke to one another.  She heard the music in the distance and was just beginning to wonder if she should ask Nerissa if the princess wanted to go and find out what was going on when both Nerissa and Karnl seemed to get up to head that way.  Seeing however that they seemed to be having a private conversation she decided not to interrupt and just waited to see what would happen next.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Dirk smiled at Mina as she said, "Why I'll be delighted" and took her hand as he replied, "Well come along then the water looks nice and inviting after all that work moving the tree."  It was only a matter of 20 feet or so before they found themselves at the waters edge.  Dirk dove into the cool waters thinking about all they had done that day and all that he still had yet to do.  Since his arrival in the valley he had been living with a nagging feeling that he really needed to leave again as soon as possible.  But it wouldn't hurt anything to much if he stayed long enough for a nice swim in the lake then a good dinner before setting off towards the outside world once again.
