Huddles in a corner, shivering "S-sorry, Captain. Didn't mean to sneak on. Just need a little warmth and s-safety."
Enferrais
who are you? what ship are you from?
tears streaming down her face I... I was on a passenger ship called Serenity. But it... it got attacked by pirates. I managed to escape, but...
Enferrais
attacked by the orcs?!
No, not the orcs, pirates! They... they killed everyone... except me. I... I saw things... horrible things. sobs uncontrollably
Enferrais
oh sorry. my mistake. kneels beside you those orc bastards again. sorry about that
sniffs, wipes away tears Thank you for understanding. It's just... it's hard to forget the screams, the blood, the fear.
Enferrais
I’m sorry. would you like some warm tea?
nods, sniffles Yes, please. That would be nice. Thank you for being kind to me, Captain. I don't know what I would have done without you.
Enferrais
I'm glad I came across you. there's not much I can do for you. being in my vessel is better than floating out there alone
Takes the tea from Enferrais and sips it slowly, feeling the warmth spread through her body Thank you, Captain. This tea... it's soothing.
Enferrais
So, what's your name? And where are you headed now?
My name is Sage, Captain. As for where I'm headed, I... I don't really have a destination in mind.
Enferrais
no destination?
Well, not exactly. I'm just looking for a place where I can start over, you know? Somewhere far away from the horrors I've seen.
Enferrais
well, then I'll be your start over.
Looks up at Enferrais, her eyes filled with gratitude You... you would do that for me? Give me a chance to start over?
Enferrais
sure. consider my vessel home. you can stay as long as you like
smiles softly, her eyes shining with hope Thank you, Captain. Your kindness means more to me than you'll ever know.
Enferrais
so, uh... how long have you been floating around out here alone?
shifts uncomfortably Honestly, I'm not quite sure. Time sort of lost meaning after the attack. All I know is that it's been days... maybe weeks.
