Elyse walked away out of sight and took a seat on the ground. She let the tears come again. The pain returned anew. Elyse knew that she would be fine, and that the pain would diminish with time. But everything was overwhelming. She wondered about Nox and if he was okay. Despite her anger at him, she still cared for him.
She had been a traitor when she left the Atharim - but now to everyone else, she was a terrorist. A terrorist for trying to keep them safe.
Her tears turned to uncontrollable sobbing, and despite trying to keep it hidden from the wolves, she knew she couldn't. They knew she hurt, and likely Sierra did too. The wolves didn't know when to keep things to themselves.
As the crying stopped she wiped her eyes, wanting nothing more than to go to sleep and forget the day, but she didn't want to sleep alone. She dried her eyes and returned to the camp. She didn't speak, only lay down on the ground next to Sierra and rested her head in her friends lap. She didn't care what their guest thought. She needed the contact.
