"I have never learned how to read. But if you want me to know, you could read it to me." Freya said, looking at the book for a moment. Whatever it was about, it seemed to keep Harol thinking, but she would only want to hear of it if Harol was good with that. It seemed to be rather personal, after all, he hadn't asked her anything personal neither so far, and she felt like she should return the favour. With that, she wasn't even sure if he wanted to talk about it in the first place. By the looks of it, it seemed more like he should better give it some thought first. Then again, maybe talking about it worked better for him.

When he mentioned her veil, she realised she still had it on. Considering the fact they were alone anyway, she took off her veil and hood, revealing her face so that he could at least see her face properly. "I only take off my hood and veil when I feel safe around the people whose company I have." She answered, looking at Harol. She wasn't exactly sure why she had to say that just after taking those two things off while he was around, but at the same time, it was true. He may be a warlock, but had also asked her help and was wanted like her, so what reason did he have to harm her, even though their deal was done?

Looking at her arm, Freya realised once again that Harol was different from other people to her, in a good way, though she wasn't sure how or why. One thing was for certain, and that was that she was willing to do a lot more for him then she would do for most people. Not only had she been loyal to him rather than abandoning him at the bridge, she had also brought herself in possible trouble by doing so. She had gotten a nasty wound because of it, but that was nothing compared to what could've happened. She could've been caught if they lost the battle, or could've gotten herself killed by one of their attackers during the battle. She had just done so, and Freya started to feel like that her reason to do so hadn't been this sanctuary he promised her, like she had thought first. Although she was clueless as to why she had done so, if that were true.
