The Sentinels But you know I'm gonna play 'em for keeps

Wraen was not blind, when it came to sensing that something was off with Maia. She had spent almost three years with her and believed that the two of the shared a special bond that alerted, when things were not truly okay. Due to her own ailments, it took more time for her to find a good moment to speak with the girl alone and the fact that her younger sibling was prone to exploring on her own for hours at end (at least it felt like that to Wraen) and only every second day was good enough for the ex-Sovereign to be able to track and catch up on, did not help much with it either.

But today was different and, though Wraen was yet again plagued by the sickly exhaustion, she felt glad to finally get Maia in her grasp. "Oy, wait for the old and needy!" she called out to the silver back of her sister and made slow progress towards her. "I wanted to talk with you," she added.
