Blacktail Deer Plateau safe upon your bed of moonlight

"betrayal" was a word she'd heard before in passing, but the exact meaning escaped her. she knew it came with a strong negative connotation, & that was good enough for now. having to constantly ask for clarification embarrassed her, & she hated to feel like a burden; she'd ask her sisters about it later.

i wish i can say that for me & my sisters, but... what happen hurt us too much. i wish i can go back & change it. she stared at the ground with watery eyes but fought back the tears. shaking herself, she turned her face away from rosalyn. it was rare for mei's cool exterior to crack, & she felt especially vulnerable as it did just that in front of a foreign stranger.

sorry, she apologized, turning her back fully on the red woman, now. i should go rest, but... it's nice to meet you. she braved a glance over her shoulder & mustered a pained smile before walking away.
