shia sighs puts down her fork and does her best to follow his instructions... then she gets an idea... kero didn't say which ten events to preview or which five to review, so she goes to the nursery and talks to the quets, examinng their auras as she talks to them... she questions them on their activities, what they want to do and what they have done... trying to pin point where they may be lying or fearful or what... it becomes sort of a game with them, with her practicing her assignments and the quets trying to confuse or distract her.... once done she goes back to the kitchen and finishes her meal....

this time she just looks in on the triplets and views their auras... then she goes out to the garden and studies the plants... examining thier growth patterns in so far as she can and viewing the final products... it actually gives her a chance to do a bit of gardening at the same time and she constructs a few trellises to support some of her new shoots....

*That's how it goes for a few days...Kero is nowhere to be seen...and the whistling howl guides Shia's work*

but she's getting very bored with the system and fustrated as well as she is running out of ideas... so when she hears it once more she sits down and tries to envision the one future event she's been trying to avoid... the one with the shadows that will consume her right down to a husk.... and as she focuses on the event, she begins to cry... softly... silently and this is how she is when kerobian returns.....

*Kero does return, covered with blood and slashes...seeing Shia crying, he goes to hug her, despite his covering*
Shhhh...it's okay...tell me what's wrong, Shia...

shia shakes herself, looks at him and shudders... are you ok, uncle kero... ye need a bath... she's avoiding your question btw... and it is blatantly obvious she is doing so... her face has aged several years in maturity, maybe even decades though she is still quite young... it is the eyes... eyes far too old for a face so young.....

shia rubs her face, then goes to her garden, hoping to forget the things she saw by focusing on her work... it almost works... by dinner time it has taken off the edge of the vision and she is able to think a little clearer....

Do you want to talk to me, Shia?

she sighs and gives him a hug... yer eyes are far to sharp, m'sirra... then she turns away... uncle kero... what do ye do when ye know what's going to happen... and it's bad... really bad... and ye can't change it... she sighs heavily and really don't want to change it cause the badness leads to something very very beautiful and good....

You make the most of the time you have with those you love.
