Her little fingers gripped onto Night's mane as they went past the city gates. It was beautiful, rather quiet with people that looked quite a bit different than what she had seen at home. It was almost strange to see all these monks around, as Davon called them, but truth be told, Aleksi had no idea what they were. At the age of just fifteen, this was her third big trip, but the first one she actually understood anything in. Looking about, she noticed the square center of the city, or what it seemed like and looked Davon's way What is that? And why is so many people there?, letting her feet touch the ground as she jumped off of her Strider. She was already bound, she already had windmarks and quite a few tattoos, a piercing on her tongue and her lower lip, so it was not so difficult to separate her from the crowd That, my fierce darling, is the city square, where most big things happen, well, the public ones.. and where people just come out to have a good time Aleksi nodded and stared walking towards it, knowing that Night would follow. By the time she was half way there, both the Strider and Davon had lost sight of her, and she, even though she could hear him calling for her did not respond. Instead, her eyes curiously lurked about the city, not paying much attention to potential threats, which of course, had to be changed in her future trainings. |
