Blacktail Deer Plateau Good things take time

Grayday didn't seem surprised at her mention of the war. She let out a breath when he said she could stay. Thank you, Grayday. I'm very grateful for your generosity, she said honestly. Knowing she may not stay here permanently, he could have told her to leave. Instead, he was gracious enough to let her stay.

He asked for more information about the war, and Aviana was happy to oblige, though unfortunately, she didn't know much details. Honestly, not even my brother knew why the war was happening, she said. But, at the time, I didn't think to ask about more details. I do plan to visit him, to let him know where I'm at. I could ask, if you like. She didn't think there'd be a problem giving Grayday the information he sought. He wasn't out to fight, after all. He seemed to only want to be prepared in case it reached this far.
