Desreal: you knew what you were doing, all for nothing ; saphira

The Naphtha does not return home right away.

Instead, she follows –not silently, not really caring- the newest Keeper. What has she done? This stupid Gold. Does she know what will happen now? No. All she wants is greed. All she wants is power. It’s all any of them want. Hypatia’s mind rages, but her body seems emotionless, her eyes burning with a light ember.

“Saphira.” Hypatia knew of Pirate and Saphira. Knew all of Pirate’s thoughts on the matter of this mare. Pirate’s smiling face, so young, so vulnerable, come to mind, and Hypatia’s Fire reacts violently.

“You’re a fool for what you did.”

Hypatia has no qualms about telling the Gold this. She does not fear. For what does she have to lose now? Who will grieve for her now? Kail looks at Saphira from the Naphtha’s tar-dripping side, his body tense, his tail swishing angrily.

“I will be watching you now. The hunger will come. If you prey on my people, I will hunt you down."
