Blue and Silver

Approaching the airborne estate by transport gave Caishel a superb overall view of the grounds and showed the magnificence of the huge stone castle. She'd read in one of her 'borrowed' scrolls it was supposed to be a true copy of the buildings from the home of the ancients, but that was stupid! Nobody knew where the ancients had come from all those centuries ago, so how could they know what their homes had been like?

A flicker of white caught her eye and she gasped. A figure in white flowing garments hovered next to the wing of the transport. The spirit's face turned towards her, its eyes a brilliant green. The white lipped mouth opened in a circle of shock and the figure suddenly vanished. Caishel smothered a gasp of amazement. This had to be the spirit who had made the attempt on Sire Ailan's life. The only difference from her forest friends was the colour of the eyes!
