Ah, once again LabRat has managed to make life, or my story, less confusing for you readers. Sometimes I forget that not everyone has the inside information.
I ended up adding two small scenes that would explain a few... questions. And a few things I left, because they should be explained next chapter. Or not... you have to leave a few loose ties to clear up, like Sabriel's apparent emotionlessness.
Oh, and the word 'hn' is sort of like humming through your nose, an irritated or unimpressed sound. I made it up. If you say it, it sounds like a polite snort. In my oppinion, anyway.
Griffin is not gone, he's just... away for a bit. He'll be back... maybe soon, maybe not... By the way, one of the genres here seems to be romance... how did that happen?
