And hung from the rafters
The stratagem swings
The first glints of the Citadel through the snow and fog, glints on the towers of the palace, could be seen in the distance. There was still some way to go, but it was always good to have a destination you could see; with the expertise of someone who knew where she was going Morgan turned Eunike onto a downwards mountain path, going slowly and steadily so they would not fall on the steep sides.
"Shift into an animal. Those especially beloved by the Gods, the Attuned, can shift." Never having done it before herself, she couldn't really advise Mallorie on how it was accomplished: for that she'd have to ask someone who'd had feathers or fur before in their life.
A small smile played on Morgan's lips as she heard the held intake of breath. She couldn't seen Mallorie's expression, but imagining her trying very hard to become an animal was amusing enough. It seemed she was unsuccessful. "It would be innate. Magic too. But that's alright - you've just arrived. Experiment later. We have Outlanders who try to do too much at once, and they quickly learn their lessons. These mountains...hold the bodies of a few Outlanders." She said grimly, not having expected her words to get so dark but unable to stop them now.
