Verdant Basin wake up, it's a prison break!

@Elijah

She knew it had to be done.

Not just for herself, but for her friend. Wren wasn't selfish - as much as she thought she was and kept telling herself. She knew, deep down, they wouldn't accept either of them. There was a subtle fear of rejection. That this High Elk bullshit would be a waiting game until spring. Then they'd both get kicked.

There was just no fucking point to sit on their asses, build relationships with the other members, only to be cast out. Wrong colors. Wrong religion. Didn't matter. So she crept into Elijah's den around the middle of the night, poking and prodding the man until he got up.

Telling him she was going for a walk and wanted to know if he wanted to go with. Simple, just in case the others asked. She hated it. She wanted to say something to Celnes, but was also afraid they'd be forced to stay. Instinct took over. It was fight the others or flee.

And she decided to flee.

"Hurry up" she says, ahead of Elijah at the Basin now. Wren glances over her should to see if he was still moving. "it's just ahead." Then they could talk.
