EVREN

Evren had led Hannah and Blackout away from the inlet in silence. Her mind was in turmoil, her blood hot, and her body trembling with rage. She replayed her meeting with Warsaw over and over again in her mind, recalling the details of his face, the disdain in his eyes as he’d looked at her, and his foul sneer. He would pay. He would pay if it was the last thing Evren did.

It was only as they arrived in the quiet familiarity of the forest that Evren’s rage began to subside. The chill in the late autumn air prickled at her damp skin, reminding her where she was, and that she and the others were safe now. Evren let out a deep exhale of relief that steamed into the air, and glanced over at Hannah. “Thank you, Evren,” Hannah said to her, and Evren felt some of the tension in her shoulders dissolve. Suddenly she was so very, very tired.

As Hannah led Blackout further into the forest and called out for Tarek, Evren brought up the rear at a leisurely pace. A weary smile touched her mouth as Yngvar appeared through the trees to reunite with his mother, but Evren let them have their moment, and came no closer. Instead, she turned her head and looked back out at what she could see of the steel-grey sea through the gaps in the trees. She had left Shamwari behind without a goodbye, and did not know whether he had followed her, gone straight back to the prairie, or if he was still back on Tinuvel. A stab of guilt pained her then, but she knew Shamwari could hold his own. What truly troubled her was the fallout of that meeting that was sure to come. Evren could only hope that she had not ruined the alliance between the forest and prairie.

Evren turned her head just as Persephone arrived on the scene, and her stomach lurched with a sudden mixture of emotions. She smiled as they made eye contact, and longed to rush to her, but still she stayed back behind Hannah, passively watching the reunion while her heart raced and her anxiety continued to build.
