The ground seemed to shake.  Jesper stood there, in the center of a great circle of a misty white
 color on the hilltop.  Floating around the circle were various arcane runes, all of which glowed
 with a fierce red glow.  Jesper's forehead was coated in sweat, the persperation showing through
 the material that covered his face.  His eyes glowed, while his face was facing the heavens.  
Others, all robed similarly to Jesper, stood around the circle, watching.  Ardon, Tyrel, Ku'Kal,
 Kylan, Crysta, Gaia, and Jenna all stood directly in front of Jesper, their faces unmasked. 
 Slowly, the runes faded, and the glow from Jesper's eyes ceased.  He took several deep breathes,
 then turned towards his Trinity Band, the only ones whos faces were unmasked.  
"Well done Jesper..." said Ardon.  "I'm sure with that power you could easily destory the
 renegades..." Jesper glared at Ardon, "I want none of your foolishness... they will destroy us..
 ALL of us... if we do not prepare."  Jesper turned to the other members, all of whom had remained
 silent.  "I want them trained when I return, at least to the ability of Ardon here, all of them. 
 Anyone who is not up to it, or who does not have the ability, shall be let go.  Do not waste your
 time on stagglers.  However..." He looked at the robed figures behind him, "I doubt there will be
 any...."  With that Jesper turned, and headed down the hill, his flowing cloak slowly disappeared
 into the mists as he left the hill.
<It makes since now... finally....>  Were Jesper's thoughts as Bernia fell behind him.  He
 traveled to the West, always to the West his thoughts set on one thing alone...
