What: Kadaj isn't sure about what he overheard the day before...
Where: Outside the main building
Rating: P
Status: Complete

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.

"That bad is he?" Toph commented as Xena asked weather he'd heard the name right. The way she'd reacted -- fear, worry, anger. Sure, she hoped the girl, Gabrielle, was okay, but she'd be lying if the sudden prospect of a fight didn't make her all warm and tingly inside. Maybe she shouldn't enjoy fighting so much, but when you've always been treated like something fragile -- she couldn't help it.

"Nothing better to do." She said with a noncommittal shrug. For someone who tried not to look like she cared though, the teen moved quick, staying at Xena's side as the other woman hurried off. "Who is this Dahak guy? He's got you awfully upset." The earth bender asked, knowing it wasn't really her business -- but Xena had asked for her help. A little info couldn't hurt.
