Panthro shifted his massive bulk around in the oversized
command chair and said, "Pretty boring. Nothing exciting happen-

Robearburble's camp. Nothing new happening there." Reon Kadena walked
over to him and slowly began to rub his shoulders. "You're
tense," Reon Kadena said in that deep and husky voice Reon Kadena always used.
"Ah, I get this way. I'm worried."
"What is there to worry about?"
"It's too quiet," Panthro replied.
"Can I help you with your tensions?" Cheetara asked. "Maybe
you could help me with mine."
