As part of finding the boy pups new human clothes, I show Grayson the armoires of outfits I have for her in Thornfield. She changes into a lovely red silk shirt and dark pants. I change into my pack formal leathers.
It’s well after the pups fall asleep in Thornfield before Grayson and I finally head out to Professor Tallon’s library. It’s sweet to share a nighttime walk through the city. Insects chirp. Owls hoot. A gentle breeze rustles the leaves on the walkways. All in all, the place doesn’t seem so much empty anymore as resting.
As we step along, Grayson keeps checking her mirror pendant. Although I’m struck by a blindness spell, I can still see that round mirror. Tiny images of Taryn and Jocasta reflect through the darkness. The two seem fine, but I scent worry coming from Grayson.
