EVIE
the light of dawn is coming
During tenuous times of the past, the Wardens had historically lingered in Halo's reach, reluctant to be away during a pivotal moment. Over time they've both encouraged each other to live while the living is good, and now is as good a time as any. The Family are inexorable, seemingly without flaw or weakness, and their march on Caido has been steady but slow. To trust in the habits of the enemy is usually a fatal error, but this is the only reprieve they may be granted in the coming seasons.
Once they've arrived, any lingering concerns fade away, and the opening of the door feels like the closing of another that will hold against the tide of worries now firmly shut out of sight. The memories in these walls and along this shoreline bring a smile to her face long before Deimos turns his own over his shoulder to shine upon her.
"Swimming first, doesn't matter if we can heal away cramps if we get in too soon after eating, and we'll just work up an appetite by swimming anyway." Water safety means little with magic, but Evie can't help the doctor that lives in her brain sometimes, and she wants to enjoy this immediately. Might as well make themselves ravenous with their fun so they can emerge pleasantly worn and on the hunt for nourishment.
