  1. Wendy sobbed into her arms, convinced that she’d just doomed Arabella to the Raveness. Why hadn’t she stopped her? Why? Fear of the Raveness and her dungeons? The ones she’d just sent Ara to??? “Worthless coward.” She whimpered to herself. “Arabella... please please please please be okay...” Never again. She’d never let the Raveness take Arabella again, no matter the cost. She’d do anything; never be weak again. A soldier entered the room. “Get up. You’ve been summoned.” ”I—“ “Come on.” Wendy didn’t hesitate. She couldn’t afford to now. She stood up and followed the soldier out of the dungeons.
  2. For the first time that night, a single tear threatened to drop down her face. She’ll be safe, Wendy reminded herself. Using all her willpower, Wendy relaxed her hold of Arabella and allowed her to fall into the Raveness’s clutches.
  3. She swallowed, hugging Arabella closer to her chest. "The king gave her his protection. Don't you dare lay a finger on her, Raveness."
  4. "No problem. I'll... let you do that." He stood and let some other villagers help her to the camp.
  5. Wendy blinked her eyes open and looked up groggily. "Who--'re you?"
  6. "No need for formalities. Just call me Jaris."
  7. "Assuming you only employ psychological torture, yes. No permanent harm will be tolerated."
  8. "Oh." Tomrin sounded disappointed, but didn't speak further.
  9. "Storms. Lemme help with that." Jaris pushed some more Stormlight-fueled Progression into her.
  10. "From what I understand, the second one came for the first. A... rescue mission of sorts, I suppose. We don't have any reason to believe she's the same as the one who, ah... pied you."
  11. "Before you ask," Ivian said calmly (though he was secretely shaking in his boots), "yes, I put the girl into the general's custody. They're both protected from your dungeon, Raveness, but feel free to work them as hard as you'd like."
  12. What? No! If you're caught doing magic the government takes you away. Alex stiffened as the guard started walking around the area. But nobody really knows what for.
  13. "Two crazy people," Tomrin corrected.
  14. "Yeah. Kay, our camp's just this way. Can you walk?"
  15. "Oh." That happened here more often than one might think, but that didn't mean it didn't hurt to hear. "Well... you're sopping wet. Do you need shelter, clothes, food... anything?"
  16. "You're in Emul, about ten miles from the nearest settlement," Jaris replied. "Where'd you come from? A bunch of driftwood came up with you, but we didn't find anyone else."
  17. "Hold up. Just--" Jaris sat her up and slapped her on the back.
  18. Jaris took in a breath, then pushed his Stormlight into her with the Surge of Progression.
