[Elise's POV]
"High Septon! High Septon Elise!"
I stopped and looked over at Nikolai, who was running to me while catching his breath. He was already twenty-four but looked like sixteen because of his scrawny arms and short legs.
His brown hair was cut like a coconut husk, but it was so shiny and so straight, which bounced up and down, unlike my blonde curls that would never coordinate with me. That's why I raised them into a bun, so they wouldn't get into my face.
Nikolai was my sidekick since all High Septon must at least have one Septon to tend to them. We've been together for four years since the moment I became a High Septon.
"Are you okay?" I asked. "What is it?"
"A-are you really going to Roselake?" he stuttered. His legs were already shaking with fear.
I patted his shoulder and smiled. "Of course. Someone has to investigate what happened there."
