Channelknight Fadran Posted April 4, 2021 Report Share Posted April 4, 2021 Wendy let out a nervous breath as Caden left, then dropped down onto one knee and put an arm on Arabella's shoulder. "You're going to be fine, Ara. I promise." @Vapor Quote Also, Guard, you can feel free to timeskip to Caden's return or RP an exchange with the king. Either one works. I'm going to get off the Shard for tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not in some... fairytale or old legend." Wendy shook her head. "We're not in a story where one choice could save everyone and the other wouldn't. We don't have the ability to save everyone. Even if I kept quiet, they'd find them eventually. I'm just trying to save the only person I can save: you." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
