for a witcher it is easy to ignore the howling winds, the biting cold, the relentless torrent of rain. but for the boy, and one as young as jack is, it’s impossible. the storm has not ceased all evening, and nights in the middle of a dark forest seem endless to those who aren’t used to them. the rain has made a swamp out of their camp, her boots squelching as she walks fast towards the makeshift shelter propped up from the ground by a primitive cot she had made from strips of lawyer cane. she undoes its holdings and slips inside to find jack wrapped up in every blanket she owns. water drips from her face as she climbs in and closes the flap tight. “i checked on beetroot. he’s fine. he’s sheltered. like the two of us. you don’t have to fret any longer.”
