1x1 With AnnaCat17 and Echo!

[AnnaCat17]

"I dont know. I think they said her name was caia. She doesnt seem interested in attacking yet but after having Magnus sent to kill her she may be reconsidering."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Mikah stiffened. "Caia? My Caia?" She was alive? She was the enemy leader? "Can you take me to her? I want to talk. Maybe I can convince her to reconsider an attack."

[AnnaCat17]

THe healer looked at him like he was an idiot. "I just escaped from there and you want me to go back?! Are you insane?"

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

"You know where she is. Would you rather have a war over here, or possibly prevent it by going back there?" He ran his fingers through his hair, thinking. "What do you mean, escaped? Did they trap you there? Why?"

[AnnaCat17]

"I mean their healer died and so they werent going to let me leave." She huffed angrily and got up. "Whatever. Lets jsut go." She muttered before leading him off, hating how she probably wasnt even missed since she wasnt their only healer.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Mikah followed. "Thank you," he said softly, following behind her. "I wouldn't ask you to do this if it wasn't necessary."

[AnnaCat17]

The healer nodded but remained silent as they walked. It wasnt long before they reached the camp which now had a few fully constructed huts. She looked around at the people as she gripped the strap of her bag tightly in her hand.

Magnus woke up and immediately was aware that he was untied. He looked down at the cut ropes before looking around him. He could see Azuna outside examining something on the ground and Liah asleep in bed. He moved quickly, getting up from the chair and reaching for a knife on the kitchen counter. No sooner had he picked it up then a thought entered his head. Why would they free him and then leave him be. He looked over to where Liah slept as he tried to think clearly. It would be so easy to get rid of her; no more temptation or tricks. But then... what if she wasnt lieing?

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Mikah walked in front of the healer now. "You can return to Polis if you wish," he told her, though he would have preferred to have someone with him. He looked around at the village being construction. This was Caia's Clan. He felt a bit of pride of his friend.

Liah slowly woke up, stretching. She yawned quietly, and then curled back up on the bed, murmuring softly.

[AnnaCat17]

The healer didnt say anything as she followed him and steered him towards Caia's hut with occasional pokes in the back.

Magnus looked at the knife in his hand but didnt put it down. He walked over and sat on the edge of the bed beside Liah, holding the knife loosely in his hand as he looked down at Liah.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Mikah followed, huffing a bit as she poked him in the back. He knocked on the door, listening. It was quiet inside. "Enter!" came a young voice. A child. Raelynn.

Liah opened her eyes when she felt the bed shift. She gasped when she saw Magnus hovering over her with a knife in his hand. She gulped nervously, pressing herself down into the bed, her eyes wide with fear.
