Ahcehera couldn't shake the feeling that something was off with Rohzivaan. He moved as if he were on autopilot, his usual sharp demeanor dulled and distant.
His vacant stares and slow responses were unlike anything she'd seen before.
Instead of confronting him, she quietly observed, hoping to piece together the reason behind his strange behavior.
The duo found another small cave to rest for the night. Ahcehera didn't bother lighting a fire, the oppressive atmosphere didn't call for it.
Instead, she focused on setting up a protective energy cover and scattering sensor bots throughout the area.
Their faint hum was the only sound in the otherwise still wilderness.
After a silent meal, they settled in for the night.
Sleep came uneasily for Ahcehera.
Her mind dragged her into a forgotten memory, one she had been trying to uncover for months.
The fragments of the villainess princess's past swirled in her thoughts like a storm, demanding to be seen.
