After going back to the forest just beyond the barn, where he exercised with his tremendous leaps and imaginary sword fighting, Kadaj returned to the main vinyard building via the path that took him past the barn. He walked in his typical straight-backed, militaristic posture. He went stealthily, not intending to sneak up on anyone. It was just what Kadaj did. As he walked he kept one hand on the hilt of his sword.

Today he didn't find anyone in the barn but yesterday there had been people talking, and he had also heard a horse or two moving around in what seemed e a restless, nervous way from the sound of them. There were two people apparently. One of them, a female, also seemed stressed but it wasn't his discussion and business so he'd continued on his own way silently.

Just like yesterday, a golem-thing approached him as he got near the plaque in the courtyard. Kadaj took one of the bottles of water from the tray it held and took a long drink. Then he poured the rest over himself just for the hell of it. As he shook his wet hair around, he caught sight of Xena.

"Xena. Good morning," he returned the greeting. He also nodded to the other woman but she didn't acknowledge him. Not that it mattered much whether someone exhibited good manners or not, as long as they weren't aiming to kill him.

Listening to Xena, he couldn't miss the concern she felt. He glanced in the direction of the barn. "Are you talking about your friend, Gabrielle?" he wondered, recalling how Xena had mentioned her the day they sparred with their swords. And from the way Xena indicated her leather outfit, it was obvious she referred to someone from her own world.

"I heard her in the barn talking to someone yesterday." He paused for a couple of seconds, thinking about the tiny bit of talk he'd unexpectedly eavesdropped on. "I think she called him Dahak or something like that."
