on it is scrawled a simple notice. "Recieved word from Wind Shear. Small complication, nothing dangerous, may take a couple more days."

Quill considered trying to figure out who it was from but he had never seen any Minotaur Righting or any Dragon writing besides Leatherback's. Much less samples from anyone close. So he would have no way to know who wrote it. He decided to go for the smart bet. he headed to the main cavern to see if he could audience with the Queen and get a little more information. Perhaps she would be sympathetic and provide detail.

As it was, Grace was in the main cavern, napping. Her head rests on a small pile of exotic furs as she snores softly, small smoke rings forming.

Quill stood at the entrance not sure if it was wise to waken a dragon from their sleep, even one as polite and nice as Grace. Finally after several minutes he said in only a slightly raised voice.

"Lady Grace. I don't mean to interrupt but may I have a word with you?"

The eye nearest opens slowly, her pupil wide before become a slit as it focuses on you. "I was merely resting. What do you need?"

"I received the notice. I was wondering if I could know anything else. It's very vague. I have to admit it's the not knowing that's killing me. What happened? What's the complication, how are we sure it's not a dangerous one?"

He asks in a polite manner but shows his fear and concern.

Grace sighs. "You really are a worrysome wreck. Spike warned me that might be true. Nothing is wrong. He just wants to learn more before leaving."

What? their lives could be at stake and he ..." Quill takes a deep breath and calms down. "And he is taking the one opportunity we may have to find something that Bonbon and I may have missed and I'm just going to have to cool my hooves and wait."

Grace huffs in affirmative before closing her eyes. "I suspect more reasons for his staying, but worry not. He wouldn't endanger others to fulfill his...curiosities."

"Your word choices fill me with a curiosity to what you mean but I'll not question you on family matters not offered to me. I'll just head for breakfast and see if I'll be spending the day with Mark or Leatherbound. Your Highness."

he bowed to her out of the habit of having to do so in a formal meeting with Rarity or when he was Rarities escort to the crowns.

Grace snorts in semi annoyance before her breathing settles again.

Quill realizes that he's done it again and she does not like to be treated so formally. he beats a retreat and heads for the kitchen. He does not think to sniff the air first and walks right into the business of meat being prepared. he was, this time, however, able to grab a bucket before voiding his stomach of the lack of content. the bile stinging his throat as it leaked up and out around his mouth only droplets of the acidic yellow liquid touching the bottom. His stomach attempting to wretch several times before giving up and protesting with a warm pain that took his whole torso. He managed a weak.

"Are the vegetables ready?"

The annoyed minotaur answers with a "Well...They almost were... Then you grabbed them and hurled on them..."

"Well actually it was more dry heaves. I'm sorry though. I'm still not used to what I call carnage being called breakfast."

He keeps his eyes shut.

"Um sense I ruined this small bucket of them I could just wash these and keep them in my room so we don't have to go through my stomachal infirmity three times a day."

He offered.

"Just throw those away. Get some more from the closet over there." She says, shaking her head as she heads off. The closet she points to is across the room, tucked in a quiet corner.

"What are you all preparing?"

He asked the Minotaur chopping meat with curiosity rather than disgust in his voice as he crossed over to the closet, dumping the spoiled bucket of veggies in the trash on the way there. There were times when he had to get used to watching beasts eat even ponies in Fluttershy's sanctuary. But this was different. those were mindless monsters. But these are beings with intelligence. It seemed like cannibalism to him.

"Goat." Is the simple reply as he peeps and tenderizes a section of meat

"Goat... It's just... Goat? It's not like cow or sheep or anything?"

Quill was pretty surprised. He's never seen a goat that could speak properly. No one could even recognize their bleating as a language. They were just some cleaver animal."[/color]

"Lots to the south." He places the section of meat in a pile with the rest ans carves off another.
