#im glad you did this
10k celebration excerpt, inspired by @glittcrpeach
Stella makes an excellent point.
“Delpheos remains,” I remind her and gingerly sink into my chair. My visit with the Oracles turns over again, too fresh to ignore with the open wounds seeping into my wool tunic.
Her face, lined and intense, turns to study me completely. Wide cheekbones are more pronounced, cheeks hollow with age in our time apart. Her mouth turns down and pulls tight in the corners in consideration. I retreat into myself before the temptation of diving into her present thoughts becomes an overwhelming need. With no move to trespass her mind, I can only wonder; what changes does she see in me? Am I taller, paler? Is she proud of me?
I decide I don’t want to know.
Stella’s expression is unreadable when she turns back to the slate board.
“Not for long it would seem.”
