"That is strange," Sabine said, not trying to be mean, but genuinely confused, "I grew up around armoured skeletons, they were never scary. They were just really clumsy," Sabine even started to chuckle just remembering the sentinels at the coven. "Well, they are more dangerous than spiders, I suppose. Back at the clan, Rikki told me she was afraid of spiders. I do not know why she would be." Sabine gave Peiter another smile and looked at him again, "I'll protect you from undead."

Taking in another deep breath and returning to her previous position again, Sabine considered sharing her own thoughts on fear. "I used to be afraid of a lot of things. Even talking to and touching people. I thought that was all gone after the ritual, but there were still a few things. What you said, apart from the undead, mostly. But, in my nightmares, there is mostly...helplessness. I am either in a cage or chained up. I struggle but I cannot escape. If I try, it hurts. Then strangers make me swallow things that burn, or hurt, or..." Sabine paused. She knew exactly why she had those nightmares, but she didn't feel like sharing it just yet. She drew her knees up habitually, but ended up leaning the sides of them against Peiter rather than leaning onto them herself. "I do not like cages."
