[IC] Chapter 2-2: The Seven

[Merrinna Starsong]

Merri is left waiting by the doors feeling a little self-conscious and out of sorts. Her formal dress was clean but was rumpled and still had grass from where she sat. Her feet were grass-stained and her hair was probably a mess. She hadn't thought to grab a mirror before setting out after her awakening. When she finally does look, she sees a drawn and pale face looking back at her. Her lips seemed bloodless, vanishing into her pale skin. There was a tightness around her eyes that spoke of great fatigue or stress. Only been dead a day and she still looked it.

Merri is in the act of digging in her pack for boots when the orc arrives. The sudden shout makes her jump in surprise. She smiles lightly. "Impossible? Maybe. The reflection in the mirror seems that of a dead woman, but alive I am. For now at least."
