"Are you curious about me? Is that why you are keeping an eye out for me? So that you can analyse me and understand me?"
Lea asked as she walked with Diana in her arms.
The rift around her was trying to size her up and see if it could make use of her. The conflicting powers it was feeling must be tripping it off.
The rift was not a continuous entity. Despite its appearance, it had different fractions of power that shared some common knowledge.
But isolated places like this had a rift that did not know much about the outside world.
It was a difficult concept to understand, but Lea considered it an uneducated tribe with various parts over which it governed.
The rift tried to attack Lea to slow her down. But Lea kept walking and allowed her shield to absorb the attack.
Lea was more potent than the rift in the area, and it caused her shield to keep holding on even as she walked toward the lake.
