There was little reaction from Siera. She stood staring blankly at him. There were moments of truth and moments of fancy. She wasn't sure Tristan was all together there, but he made a promise, a promise no one else had ever made. Not since her father, the very man Sierra knew Tristan had condemned to death because he thought he knew better. Knew the world and the way of life.
But what did Sierra know of the world? She herself hadn't been in it any longer than Tristan. He was new to the wolves. She felt that - a pup still learning his power. There was anger at what he'd done. But it was done and there was nothing she could do about it. Much like her father now, she had no control of what the things other men did on her behalf. But that wasn't the way of the wolves either. You either played your part of you were left behind. And not being part of the pack was not something Sierra wanted.
Sierra stood up taller though she was still small compared to Tristan. "Fine, Tristan." The anger tinged her voice, but she took a deep breath, closed her eyes and centered herself. And in a calmer voice spoke clearly. "I have one thing to ask of you. Tonight in the dream you will show me one of these fairies, I don't care if it's a real one or a memory of one but I want to see what tells you these truths."
