eyes in the dark

A personal welcome from a lowly Crow? She asked, a hint of derision barely veiled in her tone. Whether it was her inability to want to relax or the fact that she'd never seen a beach - or both - Rylee couldn't help but hate the idea.

Even if it was more the fact she didn't know what it was, she wasn't going to ask or reveal such things. It was bad enough he'd cracked even a microcosm of her emotional barrier the evening before.

She'd managed to not get herself too far ahead of him yet as they resumed their trek. Glancing over as he observed the rooftops in the distance. Shifting her gaze back, she let out a sigh. I would not get my hopes up, were I you. She pulled one of her daggers off her back, continuing along their path. Stay on your guard, it could be overrun.

Ideally she'd want to avoid it, but that would take too much time. Time she was not willing to give over to the shem. Not one more moment than need be.
