Through the Living Hope

Lissy slowly turned and looked at her.

Schoolhouse rock

@The Spirit Cye tapped Lissy's back, and she looked at him. He pointed under the bed; Lissy understood, and she moved under the bed to hide. Once she was down there, he put Aela next to her under the bed. Lissy grabbed her hand tightly. After checking to see if it was safe, Cye went around the bed and went on the other side of Lissy. He could feel her trembling next to him. He took her other hand and squeezed it a little. Her eyes closed and she swallowed.

Hey, he's gonna sit by YOU

A dragon flew overhead near the mountain's peak to her den. Sheep bleated in her talons and a little girl sat on her back. For @IcedOutPenguin

Another one died. That's weird, it didn't even touch him. They ran into the distance.

Another orc died and the rest began to scramble away. Apparently this herd had a weakness to rocks and headbutts.

Another orc died. Because that's how orcs work. Definitely.

@IcedOutPenguin The orcs began to realize that they were starting to go down and started to worry.

Cye held Lissy and Aela (@somebοdy) close. Lissy held Aela's hand and wrapped her other arm around Cye. She tightly gripped the bottom of his shirt. He had uncovered her mouth, trusting her to be quiet. Cye kept his gaze on her, learning what he could about her without speaking. She was short and skinny- likely underfed - and seemed desperate to keep her friend close to her. From the way she gripped the other girl's hand, he could tell she was scared of losing her. Cye squeezed the girl - he still didn't know her name - slightly tighter. He didn't want to speak and alert the one whose steps they had heard to where they were hiding. But he hoped it would convey protection. The girl looked up at him warily. She didn't know him; she probably didn't trust him. That was fine. He leaned foreword and put his forehead on hers in what he hoped was a comforting gesture. It seemed to work. Still quietly crying, she leaned deeper into him and laid her head against his chest. She'd made the decision to trust him with her safety. He would do everything he could to honor that trust.

He still shook and clutched the charm.

He closed his eyes and stepped out.

Dead.

“Uh- okay?!” Did you mean to get signed out? Edit: I hope you know how much you confused me grrr Other edit: nvm I forgot what day it is

He shrieked and scrambled back.

The orc dies.
