confusion
it was the only thing she could feel right now
the world around her was completely blurry
in her ears began to ring
she heard different, strange, distorted sounds and voices
raising her head slightly, the green-eyed girl saw a group of strangers, distorted by the curvature of the limbs in different directions.
after regaining control of his body and mind, the group of strangers did't seem so strange at all, quite the contrary; she recognized them after a few seconds.
" Josse " breathed the newly awake girl, noticing her longtime friend ( who did not treat her and Nimue as demons, but ordinary teenagers )leaving the forest with a group of other people.
the man, apparently not hearing her, walked over to the ( seemingly ) sleeping monk and prodded him with a metal rake in the center of his chest.
the girl as if touched by a magic wand remembered the events of the previous day ( at least she thought so, because she did not know exactly how unconscious she was, and the horizon was decorated with dark colors ).
a feeling of fear and disorientation returned to her mind, not seeing why the monk reacted like that to their first meeting, while fearing what he had done to her, but also unable to help but wondering why she felt so strange around him; as if they had known each other forever.
" get up, murderous pig " her thoughts were interrupted by the group leader. the monk slowly opens his cold eyes as he stood, his face expressionless as usual.
" Josse " this time Squirrel spoke, enjoying to see his friend. the aforementioned man apparently heard the boy and in less than a mile-second he focused his eyes on the boy.
" Squirrel, are you okay ? " looks anxiously at the tied boy, apparently still not noticing the tied woman a few meters away.
" tie him up " this time distinguishing him from the man standing next to him, whose eyes are fixed on the man in the black coat.
when they lift the monk to their feet, understanding is visible in their throats. " i think we caught the big killer"
" those eyes. will you mourn us? "one of the people speaks sarcastically.
" give me hot coal " says Josse, to lure the monk onto the horses. " have you ever been pulled by a horse with burning coal under its tail? "
