It has been twelve days since we last left behind the showers in Caemlyn.

What a pretty site it had been. Quite a disappointment to have left in

between all of it, really. But this is nice as well. This is quite pleasant.

Riding horses through summer winds and evening skies; Great rolling

landscapes all around, elegant stone bridges- these are things one could get

very used to.

 

The girl hasn’t said a word in at least a week now. Unless she talks to

herself of course, which I can’t count on her for not doing. Or maybe she

talks to the horse. What name had she given him? Something very strange, I

remember. Ah yes, it comes now: Argus. Very ugly name if you ask me. For a

horse that too. I wonder if she had any friends. It wouldn’t be very easy

for one like her would it? Keeping to herself all the time, only opening her

mouth when necessary. The thing perhaps that disturbs me the most is that

she is not infact, the least bit shy. This is indifference, this is. And it

bloody well gets my blood boiling. She won’t listen, she won’t do anything

on her own either- a good thing her parents are getting rid of her while

they can. And yet….and yet one can’t help but pity the kid. Sometimes I feel

that it is the reason she is the way she is. Stuffing toys of all the

things….and to call it her passion that too…

 

I don’t suppose she could come under the category of ‘pretty’ as yet but

there’s something about her that makes you watch her anyway. Maybe it’s the

glittering black eyes. Maybe it’s the high cheekbones beside which the short

midnight waves fall so well, you feel a pang of envy. Or maybe it’s the blue

streak that rests against her left cheek bang in the middle of it all, just

adding to her being a rebellious adolescent. A stubborn adolescent at that,

mind you. Stubborn to the point that you’d rather be in a small cramped room

with about twenty other men who’ve just returned from a long hot day of work

if it was that or sitting and watching her continue her work as if you had

never spoken in the first place. I hear it’s called the silent treatment.

 

At age thirteen, she is almost like any other teenager. Well, almost. She

has the usual rants, the ‘it-comes-with-the-package’ drama. She has a

growing obsession with the mirror and ruffling her hair in want to neaten

it. Or make it increasingly messy. It could easily be either. She likes boys

of course. A whole lot more than I did actually. They are probably the only

ones she ever talks to. I think I even heard her giggle for a good minute

once.

Now comes the more interesting bit. Perhaps this, to some extent, will make

you find some reason for the silence that she seems to walk hand in hand

with. Cathlyn Llafynne was a very good friend of mine and this was a

firsthand summary I got, mind you. She hasn’t been abandoned exactly. Just

left somewhere where they know she’ll be safe. Her parents are good ones and

do their ‘jobs’ to the best they can- they’ve been travelling for the past

fifteen years. That certainly says something doesn’t it? To have Adela in

between must’ve been complicated at any rate- the fact that they kept her

for so long is what surprised me the most. I wonder how long they’d have

kept her, had it not been for Cathlyn’s mother falling ill all of a sudden.

Rather suspicious really because if I remember that woman well, her being

ill is like Adela talking to me- rather rare and very difficult to picture.

Note:

 

-This is all being written from, Kayla Rynth's POV, Cathlyn's 'good friend',

who was sent as chaperone for Adela as she had work there anyway.

-They're all DFs. All of 'em. Blissful, isn't it?

-The place of safety is none other than the Rashad Ranch

-And..that's about it. :D

Her parents didn't know. ;) She did it during the trip.

 

So yes, stupid lightfools. :P

 

Thankyou both! *hugs*
