[b]Book: Queen of Nothing
X[/b]
Pg 146
"This is not what I meant when I told Variks to find a Kell among eliksni," Wolf snarls, slamming his drink down on the table.
"You don't like her?" The question is hardly legitimate. She just wants to confirm there is indeed a reason for her skepticism.
"Of course I do not like her! She is no good— I would know. Variks is desperate."
"Aren't we all?" she replies defensively.
"He never wanted to be a Kell—"
"I know that, but—"
"But what?" he barks.
"This is the choice he made." Shadow interjects, standing. "Do I think he should still be a Kell? Yes. Do I think he's a better leader than Eramis? Yes. Would I have liked to stay in my position as a queen of the house instead of some errand girl? Yes." There is a hint of bitterness in her voice. "But I have to support his decision."
Wolf's grave eyes meet hers. "I only hope you can get used to this. Eramis will not deal with you kindly. She hates guardians. Always has."
"Have I not proven my loyalty? What more does she wish from me?"
"Whatever it is, it will never be enough. She may have fooled Variks but she has not fooled me." Rising, the vandal turns to leave her. "Watch your back, Shadow. She will not hesitate to stab it as soon as it is turned to her."

Eramis can’t stab Shadow if I cut off her head….

Luckily, that could never happen as long as our fair and wonderful Eramiskel is there to protect all members of her house, right? And even if our dear Shadow does tragically perish, we can put our faith and trust into Eramiskel knowing that she will certainly bring whoever’s responsible to justice![/s] [spoiler]I’m probably way off the mark but either way, great chapter as always![/spoiler]

1 ReplyPlease bungie wired fan fives need to be quarantined. Now people are resorting to attempting to hide what they actually are. It’s bizarre and now beginning to get annoying. Just provide a separate area already.
