Ankyra Sound Now I’m out of prison, I got me a friend at last

aw but tagging @Kaertok to pop in!

There was no discouraging Raleska of her plan, once she had made her mind. She would go and find her mother, whether she was alive or— her throat hitched and she shook away that grim thought, though in her heart she still believed Vercingetorix had done the unspeakable. 

She wanted to say her farewells first to @Rosalyn and @Erzulie - she had no idea how long this expedition would take her, and would miss them both on the road. Swinging towards their den, Raleska kept an eye out for the pale specter she had accepted into Rusalka a week before. Now would be his chance to prove his mettle to the girl (and by default, Rusalka). Much as she believed she was capable of going alone, she did not want to be ambushed — Raleska thought it perfectly possible there were Dragedan sentries in the wild.. after all, where else had that entire pack gone off to?
