She seems him dancing in the fire and she is curious about him. He doesn’t seem burned by the flames in fact, he seems to extinguish them. She is perplexed by his abilities and so she hides in the shadows, watching his every move, contemplating who and what he is. She doesn’t know this land is filled with Gods, that there is a power here she doesn’t quite understand. She’s still learning about this place, even after being half-assed given directions. Clearly she has stumbled on a land torn by death and destruction, something that pulls the corner of her lips into a smile. This place doesn’t need her help and yet, she cannot help but stay. She wants to see how this plays out…for research’s sake.
And so, she follows him.
She watches the way he moves, the way his energy seems to weaken and yet, there is something glowing upon his forehead, something that never waivers. This is a strange finding, because she has never seen such a thing. And all throughout her travels, she’s seen a lot of strange things. She says nothing yet, simply following him as he enters the court – a place she’s been before.
She pauses when he does, her eyes studying him as he calls forth the Dawn Court. Was she really a part of the dawn court? Was this the name of this place? She’d been here for a little more than a week and she had yet to really meet another soul and inquire about the place she had been directed to. Perhaps this was the Dawn Court. But did she see herself as a true member? That was something else entirely. She had never truly seen herself as a productive member of society, so it did not surprise her that she felt home anywhere. In fact, being on the road seemed to be more her style anyway.
He calls his children and she is drawn to him by a force she cannot explain. She’s never been religious, never following a God or deity of any kind. And yet…she feels compelled to step out of the shadows. So with each tentative step, she keeps her eyes trained on the being. She stands away from him and yet, still visible. “You called?” She could easily stay without the shadows, assume no one even knew of her existence. And yet, it was curiosity that propelled her forward. Perhaps this being was going to be beneficial to her.
