Should she be grateful or concerned that someone had appeared that caused Jigano more headaches than her? Maea grimaced in sympathy at the man's rueful comment.
"I think you're right," she replied, on the subject of Sunjata. "I suppose all I can do right now is to be patient... and try to figure out where to go myself." Keep her own dreams and plans in mind, and hope that they both wanted enough of the same things to make it work.
His reply to her questions on the portals and gods gave Maea a lot to consider, and she saved her thoughts for a while, as she leaned in to take a look in the Wonder 'puddle'. Rather than her own face however, or the cloud-strewn sky above, something else stared back at her. For a moment, gazes were locked, neither moving or blinking... then a breeze rippled the surface and the image was gone.
Maea let out a slow breath, taken aback, chills crawling up and down her spine... and there was an odd look on her face as she turned back towards Jigano.
"I... think I saw eyes," she told him, shakily. "Big yellow eyes, in a fur clad face... like a cat, but much bigger. It... was staring back at me." She laughed, a little uncertain why. There had been something... familiar, about it. Like she should know who it was. But... no.
Maea
this too shall pass
