They kept walking, their footsteps in sync on the street of town. Cassian kept talking about the covenant, and whatever she did not to look too long into one solid place in the woods. But his words turned into a blur as her own thoughts started to spiral. She nodded occasionally, her fingers fidgeting inside the pockets of her sweater, which she didn't even know why she wore it. It was hot after all. Their steps slowed as they arrived to the entrance of the forest. 12Please respect copyright.PENANAFbG9Cfc5Su
"This is it, little ghost. By the way stay close, wouldn't want you going missing too." And maybe she didn't take the staying close part too seriously because he noticed the soft scoff that left her lips, causing him to grab her hand and start walking. His fingers curled around hers, and she didn't mind it. They walked further and further into the woods, that the light from the entrance started to fade. 12Please respect copyright.PENANARlYNSwp851
"So what exactly will we find here?"12Please respect copyright.PENANAJDILT3p5EH
"You wanted clues, I'll give them to you. Hide-"12Please respect copyright.PENANAFToJWpBCzN
He pulled Emery with him, behind a boulder as soft murmuring voices spoke. It sounded foreign, as if they were talking in tongues other than actual words. Cassian's hand covered Emery's mouth, her heart sped up. After a few seconds the murmuring stopped, and their steps were followed by the soft crunch of leaves. Cassian sighed, popping up and peaking from over the boulder, Emery followed also peaking. 12Please respect copyright.PENANArzR7frikr2
"So that's the famous Covenant?"12Please respect copyright.PENANA59fn3F4NHE
"No, well yes. But those are just two members, mostly the story tellers."12Please respect copyright.PENANAKlE0hi4pRr
"Again, how do you know so much about the Covenant?"12Please respect copyright.PENANA5xcm6UOHzc
"I told you, I have ways." He said, grinning proudly like a toddler just getting their first golden star in Pre-K. She sighed, rolling her eyes. They followed behind, at the perfect distance. They stopped in front of a cave, the bioluminescent cave worms glowing a soft blue. He grabbed her hand again, and nodded. They made their way inside, the mist recoiling as they went further inside. More murmuring voices broke through the thick walls of the cave. 12Please respect copyright.PENANAaJAHSHluAo
"Nebula singulis momentis esuriens crescit, certusne es puerum illum tum paratum fore?" So that was what they were speaking, Latin. 12Please respect copyright.PENANABzF7igZeTr
"What are they saying?"12Please respect copyright.PENANApzpeSjspwL
"I think it's about Ian being ready soon?"12Please respect copyright.PENANABgj3rgQuWO
"Ita, certus sum. Mox paratus erit. Da nobis modo paucas hebdomades, et te certiorem facere possum nebulam epulaturam esse." 12Please respect copyright.PENANAfJEfJZo9Y6
"He'll be ready soon, the mist will be feasting-"12Please respect copyright.PENANAtdQ56i9rzA
"Bene, non possumus eam exspectare, aut quis scit quid huic oppido futurum sit."12Please respect copyright.PENANAzlbn95C0r8
12Please respect copyright.PENANAYs2OXl549m
They walked away again, Emery finally got a perfect view of them. Black coats, and white blind-folds. Cassian moved to hide behind a rock. 12Please respect copyright.PENANAIzDpmrztfx
"They're saying that he's going to be ready soon, and that they can't have her waiting."12Please respect copyright.PENANAUlfle0aTqj
"Who's 'her'?" 12Please respect copyright.PENANAAX8Dvj7uwM
Cassian shrugged, and peaked again. But before they knew it, the cave fell into complete silence. They walked through the forest, until the light of the town could be seen again. Emery sighed, her head thumping with questions. Suddenly they stopped in front of a French bakery. 12Please respect copyright.PENANA0J7Wn9wDji
"Crepe?" 12Please respect copyright.PENANAZn4tuHODoO
Emery looked at him, and blinked.12Please respect copyright.PENANAaEYf8eK6mp
"What?"12Please respect copyright.PENANAoEh38U0c9t
"Strawberry or Chocolate?"12Please respect copyright.PENANAjNjIaKUNOb
She sighed laughing softly. 12Please respect copyright.PENANADJ0QJJWAys
"Chocolate it is."12Please respect copyright.PENANApcPH370Y7M
