15Eyvindur was with me just moments ago, but we were separated when something pulled me from him. I don’t know where he is now. I’m breathlessly running. It’s so dark out, so late at night. I should not be out by myself, and fear has my heart lodged in my throat. The Dark Ones are here. They are looking for me. Rain is pouring down in sheets so thick it’s hard to see very far ahead. I’m pressed against a wall so tightly, the wood siding digs into my flesh beneath my top as my sight darts cautiously about me, trying to figure out where to go from here. I don’t know this part of the city. I don’t know where to run or hide. Can I find my way to Elysium? It can’t be far. I think.
