Blacktail Deer Plateau ever he is, who takes his seat so close

He wanted to leave. In the state he was suddenly in now, with his flesh burning and his blood running cold and everything aching like it had before --- so much sense-memory that he thought he was in two places at once, almost, -- Reyes was forced back to the moment here, rooted to the dirt, with Erzulie's next comment. It didn't make sense to him at first, but then it slowly came to nest in his mind and he realized, somehow, that there was a darkness to his mother's voice. He was frozen in place; as Erzulie moved around him, he knew she would want him to follow.. But he could only sit there, feeling the air bluster around him softly, and then he was moving too - but away, silent and emotional and withdrawn, to seek solace elsewhere.
