Drudge one, "He was seen to enter the Ista Dolphin Hall, they say he's a transfer."

Drudge two, "No. Really? And I thought that hall was 'bout dead."

Drudge one gives a sage nod, "Yes, really, I hear tell he's handsome too. Rynna an Mailli will have a hard time with them female 'prentice types, that's for sure."

Drudge two gives a sage nod, and not to be out done says, "Well I heard that Mailli has taken on a fosterling, and right after she was seen boardin' a boat to that island. I hear tell there's some strange goin's on out to that island."

Drudge one laughs, "That island is old news, unless you know som'thin' differen'?"

Drudge two nods, "I hear one of them dolphins got hurt out there. Hear tell she were burned or some such as that. Hear tell Mailli an Jessa are worried others might get hurt. Also heard that Master Doran's makin' an appearance up to Ista Dolphin Hall."

Drudge one looks skeptically at the second drudge, "Yer daft! Come on, we best be finishin' our work."
