    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    YOU’VE BEEN ON MY MIND SINCE THE FLOOD
    She is surprised when the boy comes across her. When he jumps back, hissing and rattling his tail. Her red eyes widen slightly and she quickly pulls herself to her feet, the motion fluid and as graceful as possible. When she stands at her full height, which is still not tall, she draws her chin close, looking up through the water that forms over her forehead. “I was lying near the water,” she answers honestly, confusion passing over her features. She thought it was obvious what she was doing but perhaps she was mistaken.

    After all, he wouldn’t have asked if it was clear.

    If she is put off by the sharpness of his tone, she doesn’t show it. In truth, she’s so glad to see someone at all that she doesn’t mind that he doesn’t seem glad to see her. She has never been particular about the kind of visitors that she gets—just that she gets them. “It’s okay,” she assures him, unabashedly studying him. He was different from anyone she had ever seen before and she had no idea whether it was rude or not to stare, but she couldn’t help herself. She wanted to learn everything there was to know about him.

    “I do love getting visitors,” she says with a shy smile, tipping her head up slightly so that she can get a better look of him. “And you’re so different from anyone I’ve ever met before.”

    A watery laugh as her smile brightens slightly.

    “I’m Hyperia.”
