Jin watched Korlash run off, and she shook her head. Already they weren't believing him. She knew that much. He may have been one of them, but she had learned from the elders that people did not like things to be different. They did not like things to change. Change was scary for most beings. She didn't know why- changes had been all of her life. This would be one more.

Even if Korlash was just wanting to protect her until they parted ways, she could enjoy that, right? Perhaps in his silence, there was something he did not want to say. Something like that he was going to drop her at the nearest village and go to live with his people. It would make sense. He was an elf. He belonged with other elves. She was... not sure what she was. Even though her body was human, she knew her mind wasn't. So maybe she didn't belong beside Korlash. Maybe she didn't belong anywhere. 

She got down from her cot and went to put her weapons on. There was a feeling that somehow, they would have to leave soon.
