Lion Head Mesa the man that was used up

this can be dated before whenever Aves leaves for the Saints!

she calls for @Aventus, but her voice holds no challenge, but apology.

truce.

their mother is dead. whatever lies between them is insignificant to the loss of the raven. now they are on the same side once more, and Avicus feels the need to bury the metaphorical hatchet—

they cannot fight as one without finding common ground.

she is afraid. and ashamed.

giving into Aventus means giving into the notion that she is his inferior, or at least so she thinks.

but the quest to avenge Astara is beyond her, beyond him, beyond them all, and she cannot rest before she fights. and she cannot fight Nyra before she gives her word to her brother. 

complicated. but she waits upon a middling rise of the mesa, eyes wary.
