Sohalia
And I could hear the thunder and see the lightning crack
All around the world was waking, I never could go back
All around the world was waking, I never could go back
Jude brushed the hair from her face gently, and she took a shaky breath. At his question, her brows knitted together. Of course, her vague message hadn't exactly been helpful - it was only natural that he was concerned. "Oh - no, I mean, yes, I'm fine, it's just - I'm just freaking out a little -" She swallowed the lump in her throat, desperation creeping into her eyes. How could she even begin to explain what had happened? Or why it was affecting her so badly? After all, she'd volunteered for this. She could have just left well enough alone, and no one would have thought any worse of her. But she just had to stir the pot.
She'd never stammered like this, never beat around the bush so much, especially not with Jude. It had always been easy to talk to him, but now she was scared, and embarrassed, and feeling quite foolish. "It's - I've just - I think I messed up," she finally managed, her silver eyes searching his face. She took a deep breath, closing her eyes for a moment to collect her thoughts. Whatever he was expecting, she would bet that it wasn't what she was about to say.
"You know how Stormbreak has been without a leader for the past two years or so?" she asked nervously. "I got some friends together to talk about it, because things are getting... well, there's some safety issues and some cultural issues and some decisions that need to be made." She thought of her attack, of the fact that Abandoned still couldn't enter the city, of the resources that they were simply not utilizing to the best of their abilities. "And I thought maybe we could figure something out, right? But -" She took another breath. "Well, none of my friends wanted to do anything about it, and I - I kind of - I volunteered to be the leader of Stormbreak." Her voice sounded small and tinny in her ears.
It sounded ridiculous, even to her, and she buried her face into his neck again. "Oh my gods, what have I done?"

Cause all the walls of dreaming, they were torn wide open
And finally it seemed that the spell was broken
And finally it seemed that the spell was broken
