Flycatcher Downs did you bring your knife? yes sir!

reigi was not an unintelligent creature, despite popular belief.  this close to the valley she was more skeptical than ever.  komodo had taught her words, and she caught the gist of what had been said.  but reigi knew evils bigger than 'some enemies' or 'creeps'.  she had lived through what THE DARK MAN had done to her.  she had lived through the reign of terror during her time in the territory just adjacent to these downs.  she had lived through being separated from her children.  she could survive anything.

the sisters exchange words again, this time in a language she does not understand, and it is just as one woman finishes talking that a third stranger appears.  she bristles instinctively, although it feels as if he is on her side.  she dfrits a few paces closer to him, confident now that she is not one lone wolf facing two, and chuffs again.
