Serpent Lake Runnin' from the pressure until I cave in

forward dated to a few days after her encounter with Horosk

[table width=85%][tr][td]It was only several days later that she realized what she had done. 

In the moment, repercussions didn't seem important. She'd felt like she was on fire from within and in that time with Horosk all notion of loyalty to Sebastian and Pearl had flown out the window. Liri hadn't even stopped to consider Broken Antler Fen while her blood boiled nor while she seduced Horosk. 

It only occured to her much later, far from Broken Antler Fen, after the last remnants of hormonal haze cleared from her mind. The sylph was at the edge of a lake, huge and nearly black in its depths, the trickle of waterfalls reaching her ears. 

It was that moment the anxiety hit. Liri's chest tightened and a frightened whine keened from her pale throat.
