You made yourself a bed
At the bottom of the blackest hole
At the bottom of the blackest hole
It had been a long time since Alys had been home, and had it not been for Tal, she probably wouldn't be standing here today. It was raining - because of course it was - and the seer stood under the eaves of one of the many buildings in the Inner Quarter looking out at the great deluge with a frown. The Hollowed Grounds had always been a miserable place - at least for her - and nothing seemed to have changed in the time she'd been away.
Tal was somewhere in the Grounds taking care of this or that, and Alys had promised him that she'd be fine for a few hours while he ran his errands. She hadn't lied, exactly, but she hadn't wanted to be a burden, either, so while he was off doing gods-knew-what, she stood. In the rain. Watching the passersby with a rather sour expression and waiting for him to return.
Did it make her a little pitiful, that she'd grown so used to his presence that she wasn't quite sure what to do without it? Maybe.
Did she have it in her to care? Not so much.
