The last time Leaf quit Kirkwall entirely for the hills, spending years in the wilderness wrestling with him alone. If she hurt anyone in Starkhaven, Bethany or Khali… Seb… The thought had her cling to her sibling tighter, she couldn’t live with that guilt it would consume her entirely.
During Beth’s quiet silence, she offered what the Prince had told her. [color=#0074d9]“Seb said the First Enchanter isn’t all that bad?”[/color] And while the idea of entering the place willingly given her record with Circles had Leaf hesitate, this cycle of warfare needed to be quelled and pacified somehow. Beth provided her and Andoral’s proposal, but the demon's threat loomed, would he be forced out and leave her unscathed? Aoife doubted it, but they could discuss it further later, when she wasn't in such a state.
[color=#0074d9]“Yeah… I could use a long hot soak, but,”[/color] her grip loosened and she sat back. [color=#0074d9]“If I go back looking like this, Seb’s gonna pitch a fit.”[/color] She was too tired to mask the quiet smile creeping its way along her face. [color=#0074d9]“... I need to tell him. I might put myself out of a job, but it’s better than waking up and finding I killed the man I lo-”[/color] her lips froze, realising and calmly as possible, made a request. [color=#0074d9]“Forget what I almost said, I’m sleep deprived, I’ve no idea what I was saying.” [/color]
