Nephele stands deeper in the water to allow for Maeve to not have to stoop so low or enter so far, watching her face as the chill of the water registers. It’s a warm day and the coolness is nice, but the initial shock is still present. It doesn’t seem to dissuade Maeve however.
Holding the pan out to catch any falling sediment as Maeve deposits it, Nephele hums contemplatively. [say]“Ludo does not abide stupidity, which Caido has in excess. It is a complex herald - but if you seek them honestly, with intent instead of vague questions and aims, they will give you so much more than you expect.”[/say] Her voice is rhythmic but soft, lost in memories of the times she’d knelt in Ludo’s shadow. [say]“When I first met Ludo, I cursed it out. And still I received its rags and a weapon, a purpose that I’d been searching for. But it does not appreciate fickleness or uncertainty.”[/say]
Nephele sorts through the larger stones left in the pan, plucking only two and securely tucking them in her pocket for later review before discarding the rest and holding the pan out for more silt.
