Haunted Wood what do we say to the god of death? not today

Skepticism might ring true and for good reason within the lost boy but it is obvious that Nyx, at least, does not intend to snuff out his life. He is assured of this fact, at least, because she’d had plenty of chances. It does not get any more perfect than their current situation for murder: he is alone and vulnerable and though not without some training he is still smol and easily overpowered by an adult. She is offering to hunt for him but under the condition that he allow her to take him to her home where she gives assurances that he will be safe. The Stranger had promised to take him home and in the bowels of the Ravine the lost boy had not been far from Teaghlaigh. This betrayal of childish trust is still fresh within his mind but the lost boy steels his shoulders. “Ok.” He agrees because he is without choice. He cannot yet hunt for himself and he is utterly dependent upon an adult and with The Stranger’s disappearance and Nyx’s appearance he acquiesces to where fate intends to lead him.
