Where did he want to go? What were his usual stops when he was in other cities on Earth? He paused for a moment and realized that he generally hit tourist traps and shopping centers, neither of which were in much abundance here on Pendor.Where did he want to go?

Kiza shrugged. "I'm not sure either. I don't know many places; this is the first time I've ever been here. There's the university where I go to school, and there's my town. I guess I could show you that." The door to the bedroom opened, and Nickolai and Furry stepped out, happy and partly abashed smiles on their faces. "G'morning," Furry said, bouncing into the kitchen. Nickolai sighed and sat down at the table next to Garth. "How you doin'?" he asked. "Good question," Garth said. "I was just about to ask Kiza what there was to do around here for the next month." "Nickolai?" Lexander's voice interrupted their conversation. "I have three messages waiting for you." "Messages?" Nickolai asked. "From who?" "From Molly Shardik, Skii Narrone, and Ken Shardik." Garth blinked and looked at Nickolai, wondering. "You weren't kidding, were you? You really do know Ken Shardik." "Sort of," Nickolai agreed. "Molly first." "Hello!" the voice came from a screen that appeared at the edge of the table. "Welcome home, Nickolai! I'm going to be home for the next month, so if you call, I'll definitely get your message." Molly's Vulpin smile grinned out of the screen. "Look, um, things haven't really changed for me, but I would still like to get together with you two and your friends." Garth's eyes looked surprised. "You know her?" "Yeah," Nickolai said, smiling. "She's a nice girl. I showed her to you in the photographs, remember?" "It's been a while since I saw those photographs, and you didn't say how well you knew her. |
