"There was a war."

Is not ungentle. There are about six wars at any given time. You lose track (it's better if they lose track).

"Knowing how you'll feel won't stop you from feeling it," Advises local man, still guiding his life by an almost twenty-year-old fuckup. "But it can help you make the next choice."

"I just didn't know if you mean Templar when you say Knight," she says, feeling a little daft for having asked. "Or Knight-Enchanter, or something else."

Knowing how she'll feel about an outcome hasn't exactly helped her in making decisions. At least not as far as she's concerned.

"Those fought too." It's not the point: "What I mean to say is - don't overcorrect, not any more than you can help."

"Sometimes the terrible things just are."

[sulahnan]

Sometimes terrible things just are.

"I know they are."

She's known that since her clan disappeared and she spent three days hiding under the aravel, hoping they'd come back.

"I know you know," Isaac moves to stand. "But you need to know that you're not one of them."

[sulahnan]

One of the terrible things, or one of the elves that were killed?

Does it matter?

Athessa sighs and gives not quite a nod, then shifts so she can dunk her head under the water. Rinse the suds out of her hair. She'll have to wait for it to dry but that's the benefit of having a fire she can sit by until that's accomplished.
