LERRIN
Minutes later, he finally stopped running and took his own form.
He could think clearly again, and the sick disgust in his stomach was turning, galvanizing, becoming something else. Becoming resolve. Becoming determination. Becoming a plan.
Suhle, he sent, can you hear me?
Yes! Are you safe!
Yes, but no one else is. Not while my army is here. Not until they are… they are done. Can you get back to the City? Can you get another message to Reth?
There was a hesitant pause and he hated himself for pressing her into fear. But then she came back and her voice was strong.
Yes, I can, she said.
Okay, thank you. Thank you, my love. I'm so sorry to keep sending you into danger. I just… I don't trust anyone else.
You can trust me, Lerrin.
