ELRETH
After dinner Aaryn had headed off with the disformed to meet Tarkyn and see if his people were right for this task. Elreth had spoken briefly with the woman's council, filled them in on their suspicions, and asked Huncer to have the History Keepers look into the past for any record of humans on Anima that hadn't been brought specifically for the Rite. She knew there was a human queen several hundred years ago, but she thought she vaguely remembered a human tribe at some point as well.
She wanted to know if that was right, and how it was possible.
Then she'd gone to her parent's tree intending to ask her Father to fill her in on anything he knew about the traverse and humans coming through—after all, he'd had patrols in place to check the portal every week—but their tree was empty and dark, and they hadn't been at dinner.
