REXANNA
the chains are broken
Something breaks through, and Rexanna’s gaze lifts to follow the Harpy as she listens to her words. If Kiada thinks she’s alone, Rexanna would agree. They both have been through similar things, similar atrocities and destruction, only this time it’s fresher for Rexanna than it is for Kiada. When the Harpy was born, they were mere stories, adventures and tales of a castle with white walls destroyed by greed and anger.And anger never lead to anything good.
So she exhales gently in a sigh when Kiada speaks, softer this time though she can tell the girl’s voice is growing rough and raw, and she hopes she’ll get some water when they’re done here to help her throat heal. All the ideas of her mind and trying to recruit for Zariah have left her mind in the revelation of what’s happening here. And she doesn’t regret it. Instead, she nods in response to Kiada’s wish, in agreement despite knowing she’ll care for the girl regardless.
But she won’t tell the Harpy that. “You have a deal, then.” She says softly, eyes lingering on the panes of Kiada’s face.
but are you truly free?
