Title: Swimming Hole 1 Rating: PG Length: 210 words Competitor: Nealan of Queenscove Round/Fight: 1/C Summary: Kel and Neal on summer vacation.
That July day, it was so hot that even the Royal Forest seemed to steam. Neal had persuaded Kel to take a break from training and leave the palace for an unspecified adventure, and so they were hiking through the forest. They were clad in summer training clothes, fortunately; even so Kel's shirt was sticking to her back with sweat.
“We're almost there!” Neal called over his shoulder.
“Almost where?” Kel asked, not really expecting an answer. He'd been cryptic from the start, but she liked him enough to follow anyway. Especially since that gave her an excuse to watch him.
“Here it is!” Neal disappeared between some trees, and Kel hurried to catch up. She came out into streaming sunlight. There was a narrow, sandy beach, with clear water lapping at it gently. It was a pool, perhaps a quarter the size of a tilting field; at the far edge, she could see a slow, wide river feeding in at one corner and out again at the next. That had to be the Olorun.
“Come on!” Neal peeled off his sweat soaked shirt and reached for the waist of his breeches.
Kel blinked, trying not to stare. “Stop that!” she ordered. “What are you doing?”
