She was surprised she seemed to be getting away with this. She got to the stable and untacked her horse swiftly and quietly.

General Bay was up on the wall, and he spotted her. He frowned, approaching the stairs.
"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
She didn’t spot him, off in her own world. She came sulking back to the entrance of the stable, ready to go flop down on her bed until she died or was allowed to go home, whichever came first. Which meant death, at this rate.
(Aww yis muh boy!)

(I low key did too but I’m glad you brought him back!)
She started, surprised by his sudden appearance. She looked at him guilty. “Oh… hello…” she nodded to him. “Good morning.”

"What are you doing out so early?" He glanced at the sky.

“Um… I just took a little bit… um… of a ride…” she gestured vaguely over her shoulder. “But it’s um earlier than I thought so I um came back?”

He studied her, frowning slightly. "It's dangerous to ride this early."

She shrank a bit and nodded. “Sorry… I won’t do it again.” She had no doubt Rönn would make another attempt impossible now.

Bay was silent for a moment, still watching her. Then he dipped his head. "Best get warm and dry before breakfast."

“Yessir.” She dipped her head, subconsciously holding her breath as she turned away. Had she really just gotten away with it? Had no one noticed her absence? Good.

She let out a little sigh and started for the Keep, relieved that her cover hadn’t been blown while also feeling guilty for not telling the truth.

Gaius was already awake, as was customary for him, and wandering the library listlessly. He knew the contents of all the books, now--he'd tried to take one out and read it, but it felt tedious and all the words moved too slowly. The library was thoroughly ruined.

Ky trudged silently inside and headed for the stairs, fully intending to go straight to her room.
