Cyra kept the blade near the exposed skin of his throat, but never to touch. The close proximity to the taller man was no mistake. The smell alone was enough proof for her, even if it wasn't for him. This wasn't the first time she'd seen him. Disguised, shadowed, or exposed like he was now...he had been following her.
"Why are you following me?" Her words came out as a threatening hiss.
He had been following her for at least the last few days. Bryn had told her of the possibilities that there were Garlean spies still looking for them, even if it had been three years since liberation. She was also aware that not every Hyur, Elezen, or Miqo'te were honest about their identity. The fact that a strange man had been following her around, even across two regions of Eorzea had made him a person of interest.
The Keeper would have preferred to not use the skills she learned under Garlean influence, but one couldn't be too careful. She would die before being dragged back into that icy prison. Her knife hand trembled, and her other arm had locked around his at the elbow. She knew she could be overpowered easily, but she had to be caught first.
