Vale kept a hand on her sister’s shoulder, ready to shove her senseless skeleton back into a resting position. A glance over her shoulder confirmed her awareness of her great love. ”Armande is well.” She said, relieved that both were going to be okay. She would never allow anything to happen to her great loves.
After some time, their transport came to a halt. Armande fell back to tend to Rowan. She was glad that he was coming to accept her. She understood the warnings Armande explained about the magicks of those unable to contain it, but Lord Rasputin wielded magicks of his own, and he was their revered lord. Armande was his incarnation returned to save them as the Eye foresaw. She understood the warnings, but could not believe they applied to Rowan. Her sister was Awakened. A Khylsty.
His admonition that the creature would fall at her feet resulted in a snort. He’d not seen her in battle. Valeriya was one to be feared, not encouraged.
Still, she stepped back to allow him enough space to help Rowan as she needed it. She did not go far as her hands slipped around his waist. His strong back was reassuring. Not that she needed it.
