MAEA
She lay very still beside him as she listened. Quiet as a ghost, still as a pale shadow in the gloom; she was warm and safe but the story that unfurled from his lips was enough to chill her to the core.
Boys fighting to the death in the mud. A life of terror, trying to find weaknesses in a man that should have been the safest of people, with only a few people to fall back on, and never quite trust even then. Struggles, not being where he wanted to be, not knowing where to go...
The terrible, lonely desperation of standing on a rooftop, with only a step between him and an end...
Maea did not interrupt him. Did not say anything, and kept her thoughts to herself. For once her face was quite impossible to read... but she listened. Knowing there was more to come.
