Ky glanced down at it, rubbing at her nose. "...Noses break sometimes." And she was dead if this broke. What with Michael coming after her. Already.

"But not often. You could also wear it in a pouch."
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
"...I could," she agreed with a nod. "...you think that would be more secure than my pocket?"

"Without a doubt. And you can wear it to bed more easily."

"But wouldn't it be easier to just yank it off?" Ky rubbed her pendant from Papa. "If someone grabbed it..."

"...I don't know." He sure seemed to think he could. "He could touch all my other crap..."

Ky nodded in agreement. "True... I don't know. I don't want to risk it."

Ky nodded in agreement, sliding the rune back into her pocket and walking back over to the cot to sit down. "You're going to ruin his life if you tell him."

Ky sighed and pulled her knees to her chest and buried her face in them. For someone so smart, sometimes Sera was stupid. How infuriating. She wished she hadn’t come here. Wished she would have dragged Lyra to a parlor or something. Or that she wouldn’t have been so loud to begin with.

"You can stay here for the night, if you want," she offered. "Or my room."

“…you already had the door to your room changed,” Ky slowly remembered, but didn’t look up. “The lock.”
