DELPHINE
Pull me from the dirt,
No, you don't want me in your garden.
No, you don't want me in your garden.
Dandelion, dandelion.
Delphine kept up, after she fell. There were no more arrows, and once they reached safety, they stopped. She was panting, chilled and out of breath, but she focused on his request.
"Yeah, I can... do you have a knife?" She was rummaging through her pockets, through her furs, but the knife she'd had on her was gone. Probably lost forever in the snow. Ah, well. She'd have to get a new knife, then.
Without waiting for an answer, she reached to search the man, her other hand pressed firmly against his shoulder. "Back home, the most exciting thing I ever did was go on a mission into the surrounding forest," and she had been mostly useless because she'd grown so sheltered. She grit her teeth as she found the knife the man wore on his belt and straightened.
The woman reached to feel his shoulder, careful of the entrance, but she needed to know if the arrow had pierced all the way through. "This is way more exciting." She breathed, teeth chattering softly. Stopping meant the cold seeped in quicker.
