Bab 126: Gem For Gold?

{ Unknown location }

Cilv nimbly climbed up a tree and out of sight from an approaching group. After losing Ger, Ronan and Axel, the shapeshifter's priority was to get rid of the gemstone. Stealing the gem did not occur to her, even after Evanna provided a detailed report on how it worked along with the documentation with the instructions. But then an opportunity arose, and with the princess gone, she was left with three guys she could handle. 

Selling that gemstone might keep her settled for a while. She could get a cottage in the woods somewhere. Maybe she could go north to Hatherland; it was not strict with magic nor creatures. Their only issue was with the elves and any kingdom that did not bend to their will. But did that mean there were more people like her? Did she want to run into them?
