Ouroboros Spine now that i have survived the spectacle of my youth

she knew that none of them wanted to be here. 

that had to be the worst part about it.  she didn't want to be here, and neither did anyone else, and everyone was acting like this horrendous slog of a mountain was where she had dictated they were going to live out the rest of their days.  but was this... so bad? 

it kinda was.  actually.

they were a seafaring trio, and parting from the shores and its ambient noise left cerulean's mind ablaze.  she was furious with lazuline, who had put them into this position in the first place.  ciri cared less about her sister's misstep and the chaos that ensued than how shewas reacting to it.  after all, it was cerulean's idea to step back from the madness that had ensued.  the least liri could do was keep her tongue in check.

viridian's reluctant acceptance helped assuage her churning thoughts.  hey, she replied, without bothering to conceal the stress on her face.  this blows.
