Jerica scoffed, looking down her nose at him. “I’ve got Strithr on my side whether you choose to obey them or not isn’t my problem. You don’t need to be so rude.”

"The very fact that you present yourself this way suggests you have no idea what values Strithr embodies," Stur retorted.
"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
“And yet they chose me,” she said stiffly. “And you’re choosing to be rude rather than help me learn more about Them like I asked.”

"We have archives back at the halls," Speaker assured her. "Stur means you no offense. He's just wary; we're not exactly taken seriously."

Jerica hesitated, then inclined her head, deciding she liked Speaker better. Too bad he wasn’t the one in charge.
Two days wasn’t much time. She thought about summoning Them to see what they thought about it, but then she was nervous they might force her to go. They already didn’t like how much she was dragging her feet. But… but her sister. And her family. Did she really want to leave them so soon?

"We'll be leaving the tavern at dawn two days from now," Speaker told her. "And heading west from there to Yrdnul."

Jerica nodded. “Is it… a place I would be able to find on my own? If I came to meet you there later?”

"I suppose so. You could get directions at Flaxfoot, yes."

"It's a little village in Yrdnul, about half a day's journey from our halls. Not too far."

“Okay.” She dipped her head. “And you’ll be there in a few weeks?”

“Okay.” She nodded. “I’ll… meet you there, then. Once I get my… stuff in order.”

"Very well." He dipped his head. "We look forward to having you, young herald."

She smiled a little at that and inclined her head to him.
