Mildew
I don't think there is anyone under your skin
Like a Cheshire cat I think that you are just a grin
"There aren't." Mildew reassured him with a wave of her hand and a laugh; with some pride she pulled her hair back and winked. "I have my own cottage, but I've never seen another person even try to make a home there." And she was quite happy that way; she was a solitary being, one who liked to be alone with the beetles and mud for years at a time.
She did not expect the city to be perfect (actually, she suspected she wouldn't like it), so his comment about shadows went unchallenged. Even here, where the Gods blessed the people, they were still people; susceptible to temptations and anger. "Gardens created by the Gods...by Frey..." A warm nostalgic smile spread on Mildew's lips as she spoke of her patron God, who she had not seen in person in many years - she liked to think though that they spoke to her through the rustle of the leaves, the new babies in Flowerbirth. "That does sound wonderful."
The guards caught her attention, as did the familiar way Ronin waved towards them. "You live here? I would try to identify your accent, but it's been many, many years since I visited all the regions."

And I can feel you laughing, under my skin
And the happy palpitations are making me grin
