        We spent the rest of the day together, simply hanging out with each other and more, before we settled down for the night and decided to go to sleep, despite the fact that neither of us actually needed any sleep at all, the action itself is nice.

        It was later that night when a sharp knock on the front door woke use both up. I looked to Lily and quickly used Message

        ~Wait here, I’ll check it out, just be safe~

        She nodded as I got out of the bed and kept my magic at the ready. The knocking continued and I went towards the front door, cautious. No one actually knew where I lived, so realistically there shouldn't be anyone knocking on my door, especially in the middle of the night. I got to the front door and took a careful look through the eye hole. It was Star, floating in front of my door and still giving it the occasional knock.

        I opened the door before she could knock on it again "Star! What are you doing out here, how did you even find me?"

        She drifted back just a bit, seemingly startled by the suddenness of me being there, still hard to tell with her, before she recomposed herself. "Lisserym, I need you help urgently, I need you to go on another job. Tonight"

        I took a moment, still confused. "I mean, ideally I'd need more time than that, plus you didn't answer my other question at all, kind of important that people don't know where I am at all."

        She sighed heavily before speaking again "Listen I can let you know after you get back, but I need you to do this job now, its important."

        "Well like I said, ill need more time, at least a few hours to get stuff set up, an-"

        "I don't have a few hour Lisserym!" She shouted, interrupting me before I could even finish. She stopped suddenly realizing that she had yelled, and did her best to recompose again. "They have my brother Lisserym, and they think he is a traitor to Titania, he doesn't have a few hours."

        I stood there for just a moment, a bit stunned "Oh, ok. I can see why you'd be urgent about that."

        "Exactly, so Lisserym, please go and help my little brother."

        I nodded "Ok, I'll go get him out, you don't have to worry too much about it."
        Star relaxed substantially "Thank you Lisserym. His name is Barret, and so your not looking for the wrong person, ill just let you know now that he is a Winged Elf, so please, for gods sake don't look for anyone that looks like me."

        "Yeah, Ok, I'm gonna go ahead an not ask questions about that right now, but gotcha. I guess I'm going to go get ready, I'll probably be leaving here soon."

        "Thank you again, Lisserym. I'll leave you to get that done, good luck" Star gave me a quick wave before she faded away.

        I sighed and closed the door. Well so much for trying to get some sleep and relaxation. I went ahead and walked back to the bedroom and gently opened the door "It's ok Lily, it was just Star, she wanted me to do another job."

        She was standing next to the bed now, probably not in the mood to simply sleep anymore "Are you going to do it?"

        I walked over to my closet and began gathering some of my supplies "Yeah, so I'm going to get that done and we can go back to trying to relax." I closed the closet and put my Bag of Holding on my belt loop.

        "Well, I'm come with you." Lily said while she grabbed her own utility belt from a nearby dresser

        "Hold on now, it's different this time, we only just got back, so security is gonna be waaay higher, its too dangerous."

        "I understand that, but Andraste asked you to do this personally, so I can only imagine how important this is to her, and I want to help with that. Besides if something happens, I'll always have you to make sure everything stays safe."

        I sighed heavily "Ok then," I went back to my closet and grabbed a bundle of scrolls "But I'm going to make sure that everything is as safe as possible, I don't want anything happening to you."

        She gave me a sweet smile and we continued preparing together. I had to make sure to keep her safe in there and also find Barret. It was definitely going to be a tough job, but I'll do anything to keep people safe from that tyrant bitch. We went to the basement, where I sliced my hand again and placed it upon the mirror, and me and Lily went through together.
