Angela sat on a step that led up to her store, holding a 'toad' in one hand. Solembum sat in the windowsill, sleeping as usual, but very aware of what was going on. Unfortunately, Eragon's appearance and her being called to Farthen Dûr had interrupted her little experiment, and now she was quite intent on finishing it. She stared at the toad intently. She didn't even notice someone walk up to her....

"Hi there" said Galad "I'm Galad Amnorond. Who are you?". Before she had a chance to answer he said " I'm hoping to become a rider for the Empire. What do you do?" he said, sitting next to her.

Angela looked up, her eyes fixating on this new arrival. They narrowed ever so slightly as he spoke, as if judging him before even speaking. In response to his voice, the 'toad', or frog should she prove toads don't exist, got startled and hopped off her hand. Angela looked down to where the toad had been, her eyes wide in surprise. As if it was her key to staying alive, she jumped up and looked around for it, pouncing on it right before it got too far away. "I prove things don't exist." She said, looking at the toad in an affectionate sort of way. "Like toads."

"Are you going to answer me or not" Rik said annoyed that she would take more intrest in a toad than in him. " Thats only a toad. It's not that important"

"I just told you what I do, so I did answer you." She said, walking over to a wooden box, big enough for just the toad. "And it's not a toad, it's a frog. Or at least it will be, once I prove toads don't exist." She said, dropping the toad into the box and closing the lid quickly. The box lay right under the windowsill that Solembum was curled up in, now with one eye open and watching them. It fixated on Angela, who in turn looked at them. They maintained this eye contact for a moment, and the cat jumped off the windowsill and disappeared in the store.

Cien was walking past when she just happened to hear (or at least, that was what she would have said if she had been asked) that someone was going to prove that a toad didn't exist.
Now that was interesting.
She stopped in mid-step and spun around. Walking towards them, she bowed slightly. "I'm sorry, I couldn't help overhearing what you said and I'd like to watch you prove that toads are nonexistent, if you don't mind."

"Well, it make take some time. This man has startled my toad, so now I may not do anything with it. His name is...uh.....um....I'm sorry, I'm really quite terrible with names. What did you say your name was?" She said, feeling rather senile. She wasn't old, but apparently age had nothing to do with memory or hearing.
