// somebody told me that there's two sides to this life //
Believe it or not, but the frank truth really might be it. It was a painful reminder of how truly powerless she was - yet in that there was a kind of freedom, wasn't there? If she could never defeat every monster in the world no matter how she fought and bled and cried, did it really matter if she chose which ones to go after? If it was a matter of choosing her battles, Maea already knew there were far more terrible beings out there than the ones she had come to know.
It may even be that she was more dreadful than any of them. Certainly she was quicker to pass judgement.
A deep sigh from the frail seeming frame spoke plenty of her defeat. Or maybe it was relief. Pushing away from the wall, she was almost shocked at how steady her legs were as she padded across the floor to where Danta sat. Stealing the glass from where he had put it down, she held it out, looking tired and careworn. "Could I have that drink, after all?" A quiet surrender - a promise to keep her prejudice to herself. Most of the time.
"Asta said that there were rules in this place too... Any I should know about, aside from 'no sexual assault'?"
