She follows me, keeping the talk to a minimum. Sometimes I feel like I should feel bad for not being more talkative. Living with Karina and Leah, though, I think, has made me the most talkative I've ever been in my life.
We enter the house, which is unlocked, and I survey the main room. The place doesn't look like it's been touched. That's strange, since there's a lot of stuff here that'd be worth a lot to someone, I'm sure. Maybe it's who lived here that's keeping most people out. None of them kept it a secret as to what they are.
Being back inside this place, knowing Eris is gone from it, feels like we've walked into a tomb. My eyes go out the door to the courtyard and I see what I'm looking for-- blood. I lead the way out into the quad and run my hand through my hair when I see the sword still lying on the stone.
"Wish this'd surprise me."
Shouldn't have come in here. Shouldn't have come looking for answers.
Now, I'm left with one last piece that I've been trying to avoid facing. Where the fuck is her body?
