ANDEN
CHASING THE SUN
Relief. Anden felt the feeling wash over him. He had only been in Caido for a little less than a season now, but he had yet to face any foes, or really be in mortal danger. Whoever this girl was, she wasn't in immediate danger, which meant Anden was safe. He felt his spikes relax along his back.Memories of when he was in her position flashed through his mind; lost, confused, albeit hopeless. If it weren't for Oli at the time, who knows where Anden would be now. It was Anden's turn to pass along the message, to pass along the death sentence to the new arrival. Like a torch passed between outlanders, from Oliver to Anden, and now from Anden to this women.
"You're safe." Mostly Anden thought. "I... don't really know how to explain it. But this is a new world."
How much should he tell her? How much would she want to know? Anden didn't take the news very well. How could he explain to her that this world was her prison. Binding her to a plane of existence locked behind rules, and mystery. Nothing about Caido seemed to make sense. The gods played their games, and they were just the pieces.
Anden made no move to approach her. Holding his distance. "Tell me, were their gods where you're from?" The one thing that he knew could make this easier is explaining the gods.
