When he woke up the next day –It struck him that he had not seen Fallon the night before. He asked around and no one could remember seeing him—but nobody looked concerned either. He found Quin---relaxing under the shade of a tree.
"Have you seen Fallon" He asked.
Quin answered ---"No he is probably with that blond girl"
He decided to check the towns perimeter watch –nothing seemed out of place.
He was sure something was wrong –but at the same time –somehow it didn't matter. The day dragged on. As dinner approached his thoughts about Fallon being missing –struck him again. How could he have forgot after being so concerned just this morning. He decided that he needed to speak with one of the girls that had been lounging on the couch when they had arrived. He went to the Palace –but at this time of day it was empty. Again his thoughts faded and he forgot what he was concerned about.
Night arrived and with it dinner and drinking –just like the night before and the night before that. He spotted the blond that had been with Fallon before now straddling Quin. He approached and asked her --if she had seen Fallon –she just shook her head. Then it struck him----that he hadn't seen Balis at all tonight either. Every time he tried to speak with someone –they had no answer and were easily distracted by their beautiful companions.
