Alright, I admit it, I am not done with the research for my story. I did work on it a little though, to make sure it stays fresh in my mind until I am done with the research. So here is my refresher:


The curious, blue eyes of a child looked over Liferen. Her small hands touching everything, reaching out to find a new wonder.

Eirlys. That was her name.

Eirlys didn't like the heat, it made her skin burn. Her heart wished for the cool feeling of her mother's cheek pressed against hers. She looked at the street, a rushing river, and wondered over to it, longing for an escape from the sun.

Flawless three year old feet dangled in the flowing water, Eirlys enjoyed the feeling. Giggling, she sunk down a little farther; knee deep now. Ryder came, pressing his round face just below the surface of the river street. Eirlys pulled him up. "Ha ha, put your feet in," she laughed.

"No!" He cried, water dripping from his chin.

So, that was it. At first I didn't think it really had anything to do with the rest of my story that I WILL be writing. Surprisingly though, I found a way to fit it in. By Haily
