Vanyel had followed Tylendel out into the hall. "What is going on?" 

"I kissed Staven last night and Donni is being Donni."

"Awww." Vanyel tugs a somewhat befuddled-looking Tylendel over to gather up some breakfast. 

Savil catches up shortly later. "All right, everyone, we should be ready to go in a candlemark. ...Donni, were you up to mischief last night, I know that face." 

"No, Lucy and Staven were," Donni says brightly. Eyebrow waggle. 

Savil sighs, narrows her eyes briefly at Donni, and does not say anything to Lucy or Staven. 

"It was just kissing, we did not have sex in your living room, promise. Also Donni was being, like, more Donni about it than strictly necessary."

No comment. 

"Obnoxiousness is one thing, but bad scientific research is quite another," she sniffs with a deliberate air of offense. 

"Indeed. Well, let's get to the eating breakfast part." 

Vanyel is moderately nervous about the upcoming Gate, but even so he doesn't need too much coaxing to clear his plate. 

Lucy eats her own breakfast and chivvies Wilbur out of their room and makes sure everything else is absolutely ready to go before she raises a finger towards Van's forehead questioningly. 

He glances over to make sure that Tylendel has his travel bag. Takes a deep breath. "I'm ready." 

She performs the spell with a quiet murmur, carefully catching him so he doesn't fall over when the lights go out. 

And then Savil flings up an illusion over their now-decent-sized party and leads them out across the grounds to the Heralds' Temple, where all five Companions are waiting for them.

"I am starting to feel like we're stretching k'Treva's hospitality, here," she says, but she raises her hands and casts the Gate. 

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Hmm. Honestly, I think all of us here can earn our keep. It's still kind of a lot to ask, dropping this many strangers on them, but...I think it'll be all right."

And the Gate is up! 

Tayledras scouts come running! 

Starwind is the third or fourth person to arrive. "...Wingsister?" 

"We have need of a place to stay again," Savil says in Tayledras. "May we?"

Starwind's eyes alight on Tylendel, and go wide. "Yes. Of course." 

And Savil leads the way across. 

Lucy grins and bounces a little when Starwind spots Tylendel. 

(Lucy is very strong and has nigh-arbitrary numbers of limbs and can carry so much luggage.)

As soon as they're through, Savil drops the Gate with a sigh of relief and sits down. "Lucy, you can wake Van up now." 

Lucy nods and reverses the spell. 

Vanyel's eyes fly open. "Wait, is it already– oh." He looks over at Tylendel. "See, ashke, isn't it beautiful here?"
