Spoiler
This is 100% unrelated but I named a bunch of characters (and invented 3 new ones @_@) tonight and you're the only one who knows my characters who I won't be spoiling if I tell you and I'm excited about this so I thought I'd share lol

Parentheses have nicknames and then ages. Mikhail (changed the spelling lol), Zander, Derik, and Kateryna are siblings -- the dashes beneath their names represent their children. I fully did not plan on Kateryna having kids or there being a third little brother for Ky, but here we are haha

Mikhail / Ellyna (47/46)
- Darrana Elstan = Eirin (20)
- Sadie Lovett = Arissa (20)
- Kylia Ruiarc = Sofieke (20)
- Jerica Ainsley = Katima (20)
- Zakari (Zaki) (14)
- Zorian (Zori) (14)
- Azariah (Ari) (12)
Alekzandyr (Zander) (46)
Derik/ Nataliya (45/deceased)
- Rekard Ainsley (23)
Kateryna (surname?) (43)
- Annika (Niki) (21)
- Lillia (Lily)(19)

Also, I am 100% open to feedback so if any of these names/spellings are stupid or too similar to one another then do feel free to let me know ^^ (Ky's three little brothers + Kateryna and her kids + the wives were all named tonight, so not attached at all to the names yet lol)

"No, I mean we. He would try to do it legally." Ada gave her a conspiratorial glance. "We've got freedom."

(Aw hell yeahhh! Those look awesome!)

(Thanks!)

Ky looked at her, startled at the suggestion. She shook her head after a moment. They couldn’t kill someone. That was— but— and then… “We can’t do that.”

"Of course we can. Why not? All we'd need is an actual plan and some people willing to get us back down South."

Ky flushed at the thought. “He’s got a small army. Literally… that’s how he took us.”

"So we climb into his bed chambers and slit his throat while he sleeps," she said grimly.

“… are you serious?” What a horrifying thought.

"Deadly serious." Ada nodded. "My tribe sometimes goes out on behalf of women who come to us, and we kill their tormentors. I can do the same."

"No?" Her brow furrowed. "Why not? Don't you want revenge for what he did? He took you away!"

“I.. I…” she shook her head again. “Don’t want anyone to die because of me.”

Ky looked highly distraught, disgusted with herself for even contemplating the idea. And yet she couldn’t forget Talia. Couldn’t forget what it’d been like to have Aleth violate her a single time, much less Makata hurting her friends for years. “… would we be able to get my friends out?”

"If they're still there and still alive." Ada nodded. "I'd need to get back to my mother and tribe to make plans...they're wiser than I am."

Ky hesitated, then nodded. “I… am still not comfortable… but Talia…”
