Ankyra Sound but maybe that's a lie

a heavy breath shook her as it exited. a woman appeared, scarred but beautiful, still. dalia watched her as, before she could even speak, the woman told them to come. dalia might’ve cried, had she not known better than to compose herself. 

thank you, she murmured with a low bow before grabbing the bundle in her jaws. her eyes shone as she looked upon the woman. i am a medic. i can offer your pack my services, she added, wanting so desperately to show her appreciation. 

when she heard velen’s comment, she looked quickly at him. you don’t mean that, she said through the bundle. despite its misfortunes, it had been their home.
