[SWE] The Feast of Bells - 318PC

Elizabeth

Easily accepting his permission, Elizabeth took the seat next to him. She leaned an arm against the table, sighing softly at his question. Her smile remained, but it thinned slightly, showcasing the emotions she'd set aside. "A little nervous to see how things work out." Unlike others, she wasn't concerned for her safety, however, she still wondered if they'd made the right choice. Dahlia and the Family didn't seem the kind to take their surrender as the end of the conflict. Elizabeth still wished they'd come to a different conclusion, but it was ultimately Deimos's decision as the leader, and she wouldn't subvert his authority. 

Strengthening her smile, she met Sah's eyes. "But I'm trying to stay positive and live in the moment. We can't do anything about it now, so we'll just have to wait and see." And had she realized what would eventually occur, she may have been less calm for his sake. For now, she was committed to enjoying the Feast, and her friend's company. "How about you? How are you feeling?"

Every adversity,
every failure,
every heartache
carries with it
the seed of equal or greater benefit.
