Dear Mother and Father,

This may sound like strange news, but I'm not longer on voltrex...I had this strange dream, and I've found out I'm on mistone, staying at a town called Hlint. I don't know quite what happened, but it's exciting being here! It's so different from home!
So far I've met a few people, some who I am now very close friends with, Sy'Ravenne, Shelu, and I've met quite a few men, so far barely any that I could see myself spending time with.

I've already ended up in some complicated situations, there is a man named Corsan who is in love with Ravenne, but I don't think she really wants to be with him, I thought she was after some one called Jet, but apparently that hasn't worked out for her either! Maybe it's just humans in general, although Corsan is half-elven.

Earlier on me, Ravenne and Dorena all enjoyed soaking up the attention from a group of males trying to flirt, Ozy who is an extremely wise man, also has a very clever way of putting his words, to make you feel special. Some others tried following his steps, but none were as perfect as his compliments!
 I was going to go to Dregar with them, but I felt nervous without Ravenne there! Jeran said he would like to see me when he gets back, so maybe there is some one in this place after all!

Kaizer took me and Ravenne into Haven mines aswell, it's so dark down there until you reach the ogre settlements, where there was normally hundreds, Kaizer didn't have a problem with them! Suddenly Corsan caught up with us...was begging for Ravenne's forgiveness for striking her down, I know it was probably an accident, but she has the right to be angry...later on the trip he flipped out ran off and got himself into a lot of trouble. Why are some males so stupid? Not you father! Me and Ravenne enjoyed Kai's company, he was constantly making us laugh, I think Corsan was jealous, kept saying he was going on his way, but stayed near to hear the conversations, theres a line between love and obsession, I feel kind of sorry for Ravenne just because she can't seem to have anytime to herself without something like this coming up.

Hope everything at home is well and good. I will write back to you soon.

E ceela aey.

Dear Mother and father,

I have had an extrmely odd week, worse than the previous one! I've done so many things and met so many people. A short while ago I returned from Berhagen mountains, which is quite far south on Mistone, it was a great trip and I learnt a lot from it. I'm hoping to do a little exploring on my own later, just so I don't have to worry about anyone else with me, I'd really like to see how far I've come since leaving home. Ilsare has blessed me with some powers I could not have dreamed of.

The night before however was amazing, I got to know some one very well, and who knows maybe I will see more of them! Ravenne has remained by my side since my arrival, she looks out for me as I do for her, and we can always find something to laugh about, we've shared both happy and sad moments together, and I hope that she will continue to stay at my side, Shes the only person I fully trust here.

Taking back time a few more days and I would have been fighting alongside an archer named Monshira, he's the funniest person I've met, and is a typical male, always brags about how good his shot is, and then getting into small squabbles with his friends over whos kill it was, we spoke for a short time after our hunting and I found out he knew Ravenne, also found out that he liked her quite a lot. Ravenne was right, he's a brilliant person to be with, but he is almost as old as you father!

There are a few people in Hlint however who keep giving me grief whenever I bump into them, I havn't told anyone of this, I think I should be able to handle it whenever they do turn up...I just hope it doesn't continue for too long.

Ilsare has guided me to this day, and I have been thinking some of my actions have not been suitable to who I am, or what I believe in, I just hope Ilsare does not desert me for the complicated mess I seem to have found my way into. If a bard were to write a tale on this, it would be world famous.

I will write back again don't worry! For this seems to help my thinking a lot! I will be careful Mother don't worry! and father, I won't let anybody unwanted come near me, Ilsare will see to that.
Please tell Aegnor I miss speaking with him, life isn't really the same without you all near.

E ceela aey.

Dear Mother and Father,

I feel like this past week I have inflicted a lot of damage upon peoples hearts...I was confused...and the only person I could of talked to about it was involved...I felt lost and alone after I put things right...I'm sorry I'm not telling the full story but I think it would only make me feel worse, you'll know in time.

The postmaster sent me the dress, thank you mother, it's beautiful, I just hope your there to see the day I wear it! Sy seems a bit upset with me over the problem I have, I hope she will still be my friend...If not I think I will have to find a way back to Voltrex sooner than I had planned.

I intend to go travelling with Monshira into the dragon isles with him, and some of his friends who go there often.

I will write back soon as always!

E ceela aey.

Mother and Father,

I think this letter is long overdue, sorry if I've been worrying you!!
This past week I feel I have been irresponsible, getting carried away with feelings of friendship I'm not used to, I upset a really good friend again, Corsan, think I hurt him by telling him he wasn't the one for me...

I spent my birthday at an inn not too far away, Leilon, had a great time, but it could have been better. received far too many gifts aswell, so many kind people, but some of the gifts I think were thought of on the spot, or not thought about at all, I mean Rice Oil?!

Yesterday was probably one of the most hectic days I've seen yet, Kaizer proposed to Sy'Ravenne, and Barion to Shelu, two of my closest friends getting married!! I thought I'd get to that before them, I can wait. Shortly after we headed to the Haven mines to help Angela find a certain ogre, it was most of our friends there. While I was down there though, I felt drawn to some one. He's always been kind to me, made me laugh and smile, and most importantly I feel comfortable with him, he wasn't pressuring me into doing anything I didn't want to, we spoke a lot, he told me a story of when he was at sea, he's a great person, and I hope I'll be seeing more of him! ...I know it's a little sudden after what I did to Corsan...I feel really bad about it..but I can't let it stop me from happy though...things between me and Corsan weren't right, something was missing, and when I felt stressed out by all the things happening at the time. I'm just hoping things will work out.

Could you please put this letter out for Aegnor's delivery, really hope he still reads everything, even if he doesn't right back, but he has always cared although not been able to show it.

As a cleric of Ilsare I feel irresponsible right now, I need to calm myself down and get used to the different feelings friendship can  bring, sorry if I have disappointed you both this week.

Take care.
E ceela aey

Mother and Father,

Strange week once more. This place is really more of an adventure I could ever had imagined for...Well the man I was speaking of in my last letter, is still by my side, and I hope it stays like this. I really do feel like I may already be in love with him, and this time I think it's the real thing... I hate not being near him.

A girl called Ly, who Ravenne was dear friends with, attacked a group of my friends in a cheetah form, she is some sort of shapeshifter I think. everyone tried to restrain her, but it ended up with Ravenne slicing it a few times, to fall to the ground and change into the shape of the Ly, we all knew.
I set off to rest in the inn, but could not sleep, I went to find everyone in the Rangers Vale, just south of Hlint. I arrived and there was an angel speaking with Trysk and a few others, all had been attacked by something or someone? no one was making sense...The angel took us to spellguard, where we had to fight our way through the dark tunnels, my spells were off...there was a curse in the air, my spells would go wrong some, well most of the time, I mean I went to heal some one and suddenly they were poisoned, then to cast a protection on my beloved Trysk, only to blind us both almost completely. Then we came to a room where a devil was fighting against a whipmaster, I charged in thinking the devil was Sy, they looked similar except the wings!! I backed up after I got hit once by the things whip leaving my in a lot of pain...I risked healing myself and watched the Whipmaster disappearing, leaving the devil behind....Sy ran up to it and challenged it for some reason, one strike swiftly followed by another quickly left Ravenne a corpse on the floor, I broke down into tears next to my dear Ravenne's face...I didn't know what to do...I was scared if I got up and hit the thing that trysk would do the same...I didn't want him getting hurt, but I didn't want to leave Ravenne there...
Ly was on the floor the whole fight, I didn't really notice, but soon the devil gave everyones life back, Ravenne's at an extra cost to an elven girl called Ireth...I should have taken the debt...but I didn't really understand what was happening at the time.

We went home exhausted, me and Trysk went to Hlint to rest. When I woke up, I could of sworn I saw some one, identical to me! right down to the sword father gave me! Gave me the creeps. Really did look like Sedis'ias, but she couldn't have found her way here....could she? Couldn't be I guess, just paranoid.

Everyones getting married now, Shelu to Barion soon, Ireth got married to Brit, I missed the wedding sadly, and Ravenne and Kai's is coming up soon I think, Kai bought them a new house today aswell, looked lovely, especially their room, had a pool in it!! Maybe it won't be long until I get married...I guess it all depends on Trysk's feelings.

I am planning on coming back for a visit soon enough, but I don't think I'm going to be staying for good, I've just got settled in here, msybr I could bring Trysk to meet you both. Not sure if you'd approve of him father, but mother I know you would find him just as nice and as much of a laugh as I do.
Anyway I am heading to the leilon arms again tonight, see whats going on!

E ceela aey.

[Makashi]

*she pulls out a book and opens it to the first blank page and begins writing*

First morning of waking up in my new house. Krandor, and on our door step is a view out to the sea, perfect for the both of us. I did a little bit of decorating and Trysk said he liked what I had done, I feel like everything is going the right way for me.

I have also seen my sister Sedis'ias around mistone with Aegnor...I think they are here to cause trouble....why would aegnor come all this way otherwise?
I fear the fight with my sister may be my last aswell...I just hope my training and Ilsare's blessings will come through for me during the fight....She is strong but has nothing to lose, I now have everything to lose.

Me and Trysk spent pretty much the entire day decorating, getting together some gold, and then we went to Lake Rillon, we arrived in Rilara just after nightfall, had no idea really which way it was to get there, eventually we came to Fort Himlad, I was convinced that we had gone the wrong way, but Trysk encouraged me to keep going, to be honest I was scared of the place!! then we came to the lake...lit up by the moon and the stars, sparkling away, we spoke for hours and bathed in the river among doing some other things! Morning came and it got a lot more beautiful, I could see a white stag from where I lay next to trysk, the sun breaking through the trees onto the laked looked stunning. Then we set back to Mistone, and trysk left me at the docks to get on with a few things he needed to, I set off north towards Hlint, I bumped into Shelu and Barion and gave them their keys, showed them what me and Trysk had been putting in the house. Think they are having a few problems at the moment, but they should be fine.

[Makashi]

*sat by a fire alone in a cold breeze, Ranéwin pulls out the book she recently started writing in and rests it against her knees to start writing*

Everything was going so well aswell....fallen into place just as it should have. All of the things that have been going have caused me to do too much thinking, not enough meditating and praying to ilsare.

I should be with Trysk in the Leilon Arms...not out here in the cold, I was with him, about to make my dress, when I suddenly felt like I was needed elsewhere. I went outside the craft house to see Monshira, he spoke to me for a while and offered some help with my training, but said if he was to help, he must leave now...and so we set off south towards Port Hampshire.

I felt guilty for leaving Trysk picking himself something to wear...I would have told him if I could, Monshira said he was already probably late for the boat, we just made it in time and set off to Dregar...
We left Hurm, I was feeling scared knowing I was so far from Trysk...but I felt safe with Monshira, and the fact I was further away from my sister was a plus side...I need to send Trysk a letter to let him know where I have gone...maybe he will write back while I'm so far from our home.

*she striaghtens her back and turns the page and tears it out leaning back once more against the tree, looking into the distance releasing a sigh as she starts writing on the loosely torn page*

Dearest Trysk,
I am truely sorry for my sudden disappeance...I had to leave with Monshira, he told me he would give me some training, teach me to use my wits, but we had to leave at once...I wanted to come back to say good bye and tell you how I love you, but I was told there was no time and so I set off, taking the few supplies I had with me at the time.

I'm now sat near the top of the Irori hills, the chill of the wind makes the warmth of the fire, feel similar to what I feel whenever I'm travelling with you. Except there is a howling wind instead of a growling drunkard!

I wish I was with you at the arms, or in yours, all I can hope is that you go there, and have fun. Please look after yourself, so that your there for my return, and take care of everyone I would normally have to!

While I look down this mountain, it makes me realise the importance of being able to cope with the constant changes that we are faced with, but to keep looking forward, not down nor up. Kind of like what I should be doing while fighting.

I have already learned a lot from being here, and have heard some stories from Monshira that are fascinating...the one that made me smile the most was the one about the the archer who saved a pirate in the haven mines...hehe.

Walking the roads with Monshira though is the scariest experience I've felt yet, it's been very dark and Monshira has always been a few steps from my side, but as I looked about frantically I could not see him, then came an ambush..I had a couple of pirates holding their swords at my sides ready to take everything I had...they all lay dead moments later and Monshira grabbed my arm pulling me to safety.

He remained quiet until we reached the spot I am in now, we ate some food and Monshira wandered off, told me to get some rest and he would come get me in the morning, some how I don't feel he is very far, and I feel very safe in this place.

I hope to be home soon...Take care until I am. E ceela aey.

Ranéwin.

*the page is folded and she tucks it away into a bag to be posted in the morning before covering herself with a blanket and going to sleep*

[Makashi]

I am now sat in the Dark Forest, it lives up to the name, Monshira has had to deal with quite a lot of bandits over our travels through here, he is taking me to harlax....to show me where he grew up near, to show me how different the people are there, from how joyous they are in hlint.

When we stepped into the forest, Monshira stopped and turned to me, to say 'This isn't like other forests you have been in, if you get split up from me you will die, that in certain' after saying this I felt very uneasy, he reassured I was safe aslong as I stayed near by. He then gave me a long wire to wrap around my hand and told me to tug on it if there was something wrong. 'No more talking until we reach a safer spot'. He really knew what he was doing, like he had done it a thousand times before, he probably has considering the maount of time he has spent there.

We are only a day from harlax now, I really am looking forward to sleeping somewhere a bit warmer and with a bed, although I would prefer to be at home with trysk a whole lot more. I am going to retire for the evening so that I am feeling more refreshed for the adventures to come...

[Makashi]

The sun has almost set, as beautiful as it is, I'm far more attracted to the lights I can see from Hurm in the far distance, that is my way home.

The things I have seen in Harlax are truely saddening, the town is on a downward spiral, slowly being run down by crime and the fact that they cannot really get out of their town easily, makes life very difficult for everyone there.
We went to one of Monshira's old friends houses and had a meal and a few drinks, they both told me a lot more about the forest, some of the creatures we fortunately did not encounter, however I was well aware of the thieves that jumped us several times, I could guess that it was a very common occurance.

When I first arrived everyone gave me strange looks, Apparently it is because they really dislike outsiders because they just cannot trust them with the amount of crime that happens. Everyone likes to keep to themselves, even the inn was pretty empty.

I really am looking forward to being back on Mistone, hoping everyone is safe and well for my return.

[Makashi]

It was so nice getting back and spending a relaxing night at home with Trysk, the next day I spent putting some of Monshira's training to use, only to find myself back on dregar late into the evening with Kai and some others, Trysk was already over there, thought we might bump into eachother and we did in Pranzis!

We said our good byes to eachother and went our separate ways, we passed the most beautiful place, a lake near the Forest of Mist. Perhaps I will be able to live up there someday in the far future.

Since I have been back on Mistone however things with my sister have gotten worse, I keep seeing her popping up almost everywhere, just smiling under her hood, and what of Aegnor? I wonder if he is really going to fight Trysk...I don't want any harm to come of my love. I am hopefully going to the leilon arms masquerade ball later...wonder if I'll be able to tell whos who easily?

[Makashi]

So many things to write down, I don't know where to begin, I could start with ranting on about the possible places Trysk could be....and reasons why he's not here, but I won't, I just miss him, I trust he will come back.

I was so happy seeing Ireth give birth, felt sorry for her knowing that it wasn't any normal child and would grow up suprisingly fast, she'll never have a chance to enjoy all aspects of raising the child, she probably knows and that's probably why she seemed reluctant to do somethings. We went back to Ireth's house after and all spoke for hours, Ozy told us details about the planes and so on, which helped me understand things a lot better.

Been speaking with Cray and Vivian more and more often recently too, their becoming closer friends than I would have thought, and I feel dettached from others now everyday, I don't fit in around a lot of people, I try to help, but they just tend to upset me now...*a tear drop stains this part of the page* Filling my head with stupid ideas about where Trysk might be.

*she shuts the book abruptly and wanders off to bed*

[Makashi]

Just as I was thinking I could not have anything else taken from me, I did...I was helping a group to destroy the black hand, during our journey we encountered a banshee, which caused a lot of the people I was with to fall, I wanted to help them all....I knew there was something wrong, I could feel a dark presence, when I raised the first person, It felt as if something was being torn from within me...I fought against the strain, and one by one Ilsare helped me bring them back....When I was done. I felt terrible....weak....tired....and then I looked at my hands as I rest.

My hands were withered, wrinkly, and looked to be the hands of an old lady, I looked in the water to see the reflection of my face....to my horror I was not recognisble..Will my friends even recognise me anymore?

I hoped oh so much the curse would be lifted once the hand had been destroyed, but no, I remained the same. We travelled to a different realm to do so, and as Ramanon arrived, who carried the hand, it exploded within the box and unleashed death before the destruction was finally pulled back in toward it...leaving a small bone behind. I hope no one picked it up....but I didn't look really.

[Makashi]

Slowly everythings starting to look up once more, no cure for the curse that is upon me so far, however I have had an interesting talk with some people around Mistone for more knowledge on what has actually happened, Connor, a mage from the Arcane Alliance, told me my skin had absorbed excessive amounts of negative energy, which has caused my skin to age as it has. Every moment I'm not distracted by people taking my mind off of this..I can't help but try to think of another way around the problem.

Some clerics from the temple told me perhaps I should try looking for rings and jewellery, enchanted to hide such curses, I did consider this before...but didn't think it would be much use, however they all were convinced it would work, aslong as I was wearing them, once taking them off I would return to my current state, that has given me little hope, which I am thankful for.

I don't feel rushed to get this resolved when Trysk's around, he treats me exactly the same as he always has, maybe he's not around as much at the moment, but we all have other commitments to which he understands, as do I. However I do find it hard to get moments alone with him, normally we go adventuring as soon as we see eachother, it's fun, but usually others tag along, I'd just like some real time to sit and talk to him completely isolated from everyone else.

[Makashi]

Me and Trysk spent the whole night infront of the fire, alone, telling stories, cuddling eachother, when we're talking we never run out of things to say, he told me more about adventures at sea, asked me about things that happened while he wasn't around. Talked about almost everything from necromancer's and the blackhand, to children's names *smiles as she writes* Eventually we just slept infront of the fire, in eachothers arms.

People seem to be saying I have been very quiet recently...I just feel awkward around certain people right now, especially whenever the subject of my skin is brought up around people I don't know, Don't they understand that I would prefer my business to be my own? I don't need it announced to the town, but everyone runs up to me asking, saying I'm still the same person they knew, although they try to keep their eyes fixed on different things around, makes me feel worse usually. Then theres the people who make little jokes about it, I know I have done myself from time to time, but thats me saying them....I know I'm playing around, but when others try to make it sound funny, just makes me feel very different.

Again, I gave a piece of my soul to help some one, Elhara. I really wish people would carry soulstones around so that I do not feel so drained after a resurrection, maybe I should just stop performing them on people. On Trysk it's fine, our souls are almost as one anyway....but I can't help all these people, just because they expect me to. I'd like to be able to live my life normally, not treated as an object that gets pulled along to bring people back because they were being too foolish. *sighs and slams her book closed*

[Makashi]

I walked back home from the temple in Hlint and shortly after arriving, Trysk turned up aswell, just as I was getting fed up with trying to get the table and shelves straightened up! We talked for a while and he kneeled beside me, I thought he was just tired or something, then he pulled out a ring, looked at me, and asked me to marry him, All I could do was smile with happiness and accept. I cried with joy, and the ring seems to have helped me with the curse.

Ilsare's blessings have helped me a great deal recently, keeping my mind focused on the important things that will be a part of my life forever, I need to visit my mother and father, tell them about everything that has happened. Maybe I should head there for a few days soon.

[Makashi]

Dear Mother and Father,

Thank you for how welcome you made me feel when I came home, I know your both disappointed I'm not moving back, but I have to get on with the life I am now caught up in, seeing my friends in Hlint, reminded me just how much I would miss everyone here if I did. I know you were shocked with the curse that is upon me, but I'm glad it didn't change the way things between us were, I guess it's exactly the same situation I had back on mistone when it first happened, but everyone who cared for me did stand by...Which is definitely the most important thing they could have done. Thank you both for standing by. I hope the others know how thankful I am aswell.

Recently however I've been distracted by things keeping me from my work at the temple, I should really visit Hlint more often to make sure I carry on helping others find love, in whatever form, be it music, or even just getting a smile. Ilsare blesses those that Love. Just like you both taught me.
Please both of you take care, and maybe consider talking to Sedis'ias, even if she hates me, everyone wishes to do their parents proud...she just needs to be loved.
I will do my best to visit more often, and hope to hear from you both soon!

E ceela aey

Ranéwin

[Makashi]

How I long to see Trysk again, things are not the same without him here, I just hope that he will return to me soon. I've been helping a lot of the townsfolk around Hlint getting them used to the unfamilar land they have found themselves in. One was a short halfling called Dram. Reminded me of how rewarding that feeling of helping some one is.

Trysk, I know your out there somewhere, If I had to guess I'd say on a ship sailing, well, hiding in the cellar drinking the captains supplies! *smiles as she writes*
E ceela aey Trysk, and until we are together again, I will wait, and keep the house tidy ofcourse!

On another note, I had to help Barion and a few others fight a demon, Something myself, Trysk, Vivian and Jet faced a long time ago, But it wasn't as easy this time round, by the end of the fight I was exhausted and had resurrected a girl I noticed laying near the fight. We eventually were successful and the beast could do no more, made a mistake and most of our swords probably ended it's life very quickly.
Supposedly this is all because of the demons going mad without their leader, one of bloods generals who was defeated recently, and lost any control over Xanthril. So for the time being, more guards have been placed around the city. Hopefully they will be able to hold them off, should more come.

[Makashi]

*Ranéwin sits down in her home infront of the fire, blowing a small layer of dust from her book before opening it and taking out a quill*

Each moment that passes, each sunrise, and sunset. I think of you Trysk, the times we've had...
Even the times spent together in some of the most awful places, I wish I could relive.
The memories of a feeling, I long to feel once more.
So many things I wish I could talk to you about.
Your in my thoughts and prayers. My heart and soul.
I long for the day when I sit by the ocean, and see your ship coming to port.
E ceela aey.

*she closes the book and stares into the fire before drifting off into a dream*

[Makashi]

*she lays on the couch and picks a book from the ground, flicks to a certain page and begins writing with her Quill*

So it seems my time is passed now helping those that need it, and learning alchemy...cooking....I used to say I wouldn't ever cook, but I've actually suprised myself....so perhaps I should try my luck with a bow again. Well maybe when theres no one around, just to be safe.

Apart from this I've got to know quite a few people, Ael who I find myself travelling with more and more often, he's nice company, and unlike most of the people around he's smart. After a trip through various places he made me a set of keys so that I could visit dregar more often, and we've been adventuring a couple of times since, including to Xantril! So many creatures there....but I don't think I'll be going alone anytime soon.

Then theres the bard Freldo, for some reason he appears where ever I am, I don't know if he's following me, or if it's luck, but he's always able to make me laugh, he even walked me home one night! Ashame I still don't know him very well. No doubt I will soon though.

Kiva, now he's a bit strange, flirtatious but a bit weird, along with his nickname 'Dark Child' which I find more disturbing than anything.

Sabrissia has been talking to me about a few things helped me clear my head, shes becoming a good friend, and shes so well suited to Barion, so I hope she looks after him!

*she closes the book, along with her eyes, and holds onto a green stone that always hangs around her neck*

[Makashi]

*next entry in her book*

I was speaking to Kiva earlier, wasn't in the happiest of moods, we talked about my situation mainly, and then he wanted to teach me how to listen to the shadows, sounded interesting, but Barion interupted and I lost all concentration...from there I ran home with Shelu and decided to get some jobs in the house done that I've been avoiding so long.

As I left I bumped into Jeran, so we sat and talked, cheered me up a lot too, then Barion and Abi came and we all talked some more...was nice to have a group of us all together again...it's been a while since I've had any big talks with Abi and Angela...
Abi was telling Barion some things needed to be done back at the house in Hlint, so they left and me and Jeran talked for a bit longer before heading to Firesteep with a load of others, sadly the return did not go as planned, and I'm not really sure if anyone made it, although I'm sure ael did because he's so fast...maybe Jeran did but I didn't get a chance to look at who was running before I fell myself.

So I travelled back to mistone using a portal, and went to Hlint, noticed the temple must have had enough funds for a fountain, it's beautiful, was told a bard named Regnus collected the seeds for the flowers...I think thats what Akki said anyway. When I got back anyway, everyone asked me what had happened and some even offered help, *smiles at the thought* Frelo turned up said his hello and went off somewhere, then I bumped into him by the temple of Ilsare.

We sat by the fountain, and he even read a poem he'd written for me, and a lovely one it was. I think we must have talked all night because it wasn't until early morning that I went to get a little rest. Though I know we still have a lot to talk about, he's just a person whos nice and easy to talk to, and funny, although he may try a little too hard sometimes!

Now my plans are to collect a few things, organise the chests a little more, and to avoid firesteep....for a while.

*closes the book and tucks it under the sofa*
