DEIMOS
Deimos hesitated in asking anyone to accompany them to Starfall. He could think of multitudes scarred and marred by the Family’s methods and motions – Flora killed, Sah’s child kidnapped and assaulted, streaks of other individuals who knew friends and kin mauled or altered. Only if they were willing, he offered instead, shaking his head as another individual came running by, shrieking and calling out to their fellow drunken compatriots. There could be some with a grudge too. The other leaders may have more ideas. Vengeance and spite had always been one of his main motivators.
As for luck, he snorted. They certainly hadn’t been very fortunate in their past searches. Amhran had planted one, but it wasn’t due to bloom until Leafchange, and by then, if they hadn’t made any headway at all, they might have been far too late. No, he admitted, eternally pragmatic. There was the notion of scores of them settling into Greatwood boundaries and Frey’s Breath, more possibilities, opportunities, and chances, but they could end up with the same results – nothing at all. Maybe we should have a deadline. Or a goal. If something has not been found, then we try another means.
