[Training] caught in the undertow

WESSEX out of the night that covers me Waiting to see where Mabel ends up, Wessex watches as the girl begins to panic at the edge of the water. She edges forward, offering a hand, an arm, or a shoulder if need be. “Well…” she begins, not quite agreeing with her. “Not necessarily. It’s only stupid if you don’t learn anything.” Raising a brow in question, she looks over at the other and tilts her head a bit in a silent inquiry. Did she learn anything? Anything at all, about herself, her speed, the way people move and how she is most successful? Making an effort to indirectly steer them away from the water, the Wraith eases back towards the tunnels and the drier land. No need for self-flagellation or forcing things that do not want to come easily. black as the pit from pole to pole i thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul
