Ah… With her food halfway already in her mouth, a woman approached her. Turning wide pale golden eyes to her, she finished off her mouthful quickly, not wanting to be rude. But what was she saying? Harper? Ah… ”My name is Svala. And… thank you. I haven’t changed it for years, but if it isn’t broken, right?” Her words were a slight attempt at humor, but her tone was flat and lacked the emphasis in the words that needed it, along with the emotion that should have filled them. And then, to her surprise, another guest approached, one she recognized as the cat that had dragged her to the place she now called home.
Her expression relaxed a bit, giving a slight smile. ”Why wouldn’t they let me out of the house?” She asked in that same flat tone, but then, the feline offered her food. Which always won points in her book. Her smile widened, but her eyes remained almost dead as she took the food that was offered to her. ”Thank you.” The Wendigo took it happily and downed it, stick and all in two bites.
In no time, the event started, the rules read out and they were paired up. Her partner was a dark-haired man whom she didn’t know and she walked up to him without hesitation as they waited for their riddle. She wasn’t good at them. She’d been ‘gone’ for too long, but maybe… By some chance, she might know this one… After they were given their riddle, she thought for a long moment about what it could mean, but she was missing something. Turning that pale yellow gaze up to her partner for the evening, she attempted a smile that didn’t lighten her eyes. ”My name is Svala, it is nice to meet you.” This was courtesy, she’d been taught it well in the last few months, though she mostly kept to herself. ”Ten soldiers… In an alley… On a date night?” What even was a date night? And they were dead… They sounded yummy… No. She couldn’t think of that right now. Clearing her throat, she thought harder, hoping to get the riddle. Or maybe her partner knew the answer.
