The next day, nothing happened out of the ordinary. Ashera helped me make a new outfit out of some soft leather she had around. By the end of the day, we had a neatly stitched pair of leather pants and a double-lined tunic. We started working on a new cape for me, as well. She had plenty of rabbit fur, and we trimmed the leather with it and added a silver brooch as a closure. Ashera had a knack for stitchery, and I watched in awe as her fingers flew over the material.

“I could never have stitched this by myself in a week, let alone a day,” I said. While I helped, the work had primarily come from her. “I can’t thank you enough.”

“It’s nice to have someone to look after,” she said. “I’ve been alone so long I think I forget how it feels to be around people—at least people who are genuine. I’ve truly enjoyed having you here, Asajia. If you ever need a place to stay again, you’re welcome to stay with me.” She gave me a soft smile, and I returned it.

“I never really knew my grandparents, but I like to think this is the way it would be. My mother and I had a comfortable relationship, as well. Although I wish she could have had your confidence.”

“That’s one thing you can’t just hand to another. Confidence has to be built from the inside out, or you’ll never be sure of yourself. No matter how much people tell you how great you are, you have to truly believe it in order to put it to work for you. There now,” she said, patting the front of the cloak. “We’re finished. Let’s eat some dinner and get some sleep.”

“How long until we know whether your spell works?” I asked. “Or is there a way to tell beyond someone to showing up?”

“There’s no way to know for sure that it didn’t work. Except if no one appears at the doorstep. So we wait.”

After she went to bed, I sat by the fire, thinking over my situation. If Bran and Fenling didn’t show up, I would have to make a decision about what to do. As much as I enjoyed Ashera’s company, and I liked helping her out, I didn’t think I could stay here forever. I didn’t feel settled yet. As I climbed under the covers, I still wasn’t sure what my decision would be. But I had time, at least. Karehl hadn’t caught me here yet, and hopefully, I’d be long gone before he ever showed his face at the door.
