Revelations and Fears
The food tasted good, and the company welcomed despite the looks. Really, she couldn't blame them for wondering about her.
The redhead overheard the conversation of the old woman with Madaya. It wasn't until that moment that Islana realized how much Ozanine she had picked up. She was likely better at it than Odonoine, by this point.
A smile crossed Islana's lips when Madaya impressed the children by using her magik. The older witch hadn't used her own power since the attack from the hive mind.
At first, the drain had been the reason, but it now had been days and Islana hadn't dared try to use her magik again. There was every reason for her to be scared. Scared of the hive mind, scared that the ability might be gone. The young woman knew though eventually she would have to try again.
As the question about the stinger came, Islana wondered if the man would believe her. Still telling the truth was all there was to do.
"I and a Sk'elep, killed the Skara, and I took its stinger." There was no bragging in her tone, it was just what had happened.
