Bigglesworth flew fast in through the air, a letter in his talons from Bright Port. He was tired when he landed on Lucinda's desk, but he hopped over at Lucinda, who was still passed out in her bed. It was the middle of noon, and she was still asleep. Biggleworth flapped around her head, hooting a little bit, Lucinda just turned her body a bit and brought her blanket up. Biggleworth then started tugging at her hair, Lucinda swats her hand a bit.

Lucinda: " *groans* It's too early, Biggs."

Biggleworth's feathers fluffed a bit before he flew off, returning a few minutes later, struggling to keep himself up while holding a bucket full of water in his talons. He went on a sheff over Lucinda's head and dump the water on her, causing her to sit up shortly after while letting out a scream. She looked up at her Familiar, and glared at him as he tossed the bucket away.

Lucinda: " Alright. Alright. I'm up. Damn!"

Lucinda pulled herself out of her bed and as she dry her hair a bit, Biggleworth hop back on the desk, jumping on it a bit while hooting and grabbing Lucinda's attention.

Lucinda: " What's this?"

Lucinda picked up the letter, reading it as she ate an apple and nearly choke after seeing what Bright Port had to say.

Lucinda: " Holy S**t! Ap-Aphmau! Aphmau!"

Biggleworth hooted before Lucinda ran out, she looked back and realized she was still in her undergarments and nearly ran out the door wearing nothing but her bra and underwear.

Lucinda: " Oh yeah, right, clothes."

Shortly after grabbing the nearest clothing to her, Lucinda ran around a bit, looking for Aphmau, Garroth or Katelyn. She eventually found them up at the tree base, and Lucinda fell half of her body that was out of the trap door on the floor after climb up the later.

Lucinda: " APHMAU!!"

Aphmau: " What the?! Lucinda?"

Katelyn: " What happened to you?"

Lucinda: " Ugh! Hang on... *pants* Just.. give me a minute. I just ran around the village... and just got up.."

Katelyn: " Pff.! Why?"

Lucinda pulled herself up and held out her hand with the letter while laying on her back. Garroth took the letter and read it, he covered his mouth and was in a lost of words.

Aphmau: " What? What is it? What does it say."

Garroth looked back at Aphmau, he held out the letter, Aphmau took it, Katelyn looked over to read it with. 

The letter: " To our Friends in Phoenix Drop, we bring you some interesting news. A few days ago, we have come across on interesting sight, we have came across the Shadow Lord."

Aphmau covered her mouth and Katelyn jolt a bit.

The Letter: " However, strangely, he didn't attack some of our guards who caught him. He jut stood still for a while before shaking his head and falling down a small hill. When they got there, they found him passed out and next to an odd puddle of black goo. We brought him in, but he seems different. It would appear that all the dark magic is gone, and both me and Hydra came to find out that Shad the Destroyer is no longer in the formal Lord of Falcon Caw Aaron, and he is..."

Aphmau: " Alive..."

Aphmau stumbled back a bit, the letter slipped out of her hands as she backed up to a bed.

Garroth: " Lady Aphmau? Are you alright?"

Aphmau: " I... I think... I need to sit down.. for a while."
