Lassim's reunion with his grandparents had brought a smile to his face as he felt their care and love as they fussed over his return. At his grandmother's persistence he explained the situation with the drow.
"As for calling the Drow over," Lassim began, addressing his grandparents' curious glances, "I think it's best we wait until everything is ready here. The, uh, person in charge of them suggested sending them with me, but before I left I thought it best that I go first. If they all showed up at once, all 1,700 plus of them, it might overwhelm whoever was at the cliff waiting for me that I knew would be there. It turned out to be Hallen waiting and probably would've shocked him right to death, plus, we need to make sure the Aetheria kingdom is prepared on this side of the border. It's a lot of people and it might cause a scene. They're a different race of people after all."
