Emberwood and the ravens are leaving the tower
#7
It seems almost too simple. Everything is oddly simple with this boy, actually. The realization strikes him hard, coasting on an unexpected wave of emotion. Things have rarely ever been simple in Zephyr's life, and he'd almost forgotten how it feels to be met with something other than disappointment at every turn. He blinks back the beginnings of tears for the second time since meeting Phillip, but this time he finds no anger to mask his mild embarrassment; he's too relieved for anger.
Helios is golden, too, He says, struggling to keep the emotion from his voice. Small and gold with lots of scars, he reminds himself, determined to remember Phillip's description. Black and gold, and really tall. He swallows, slightly uncertain when he starts again. Some part of him still can't quite accept the simplicity of all this, and he half-expects an argument. Let's — I want to leave today.
