Restless

The village was called Felowyn and it was bigger than Capriella had remembered it. That wasn’t uncommon in the kingdom of Unicra. It was a first-hand account of the good the Winsletts did for their territories, helping towns to prosper and ensuring its citizens had everything they needed to continue doing so. Capriella had underestimated how long it would take the two of them to reach Felowyn, and night had come before they did. It was just as well, allowing the two to blend in the darkness while the Sevelyn woman watched the town from afar. She could see several lights moving around on patrol, in and along the perimeter of the village.

“Lots of guards,” Capriella noted. Normally it would have been a welcome sight. They would be loyal to Fiora, at least on the surface, but now she wasn’t sure who could be trusted. Aside from most of her Sevelyn sisters, and her queen, of course, she couldn’t comfortably put her faith in anyone else. Still, it was good to see that even in Fiora’s absence, the guards were being diligent in protecting the common folk. However, the ramped-up security indicated they were most likely expecting a raid. Whether that be from Dyssa’s barbarians or the run-of-the-mill bandits that roamed the countryside, both cases could be problematic.

“We’ll have to find some way to sneak in. We really don’t want Dyssa knowing where we are,” Capriella said, but when she glanced over her shoulder, she noticed Fiora was missing. “My lady?” Her eyes followed the slight decline of the earth and she just barely made out the black cloak that Fiora was wearing. When she joined her queen’s side, she saw what had distracted the other.

“A sewage drain,” Capriella observed, holding her hand over her nose. It was a large hole in the side of the small hill, with just a trickle of muddied waters coming out to greet them. But its most telling sign was the smell, a strong odor that had their noses crinkling. The Sevelyn’s face darkened as she came to realize what the bitter-sweet discovery meant. They had found their way in. It just wasn’t a very pleasant one.
