She started to pace as she thought. How would she explain everything. It wasn't like there was a cave system that wasn't full of water that she could say led back to a city of her people or anything. There was just the island, the only land as far as the eye could see. What had she gotten herself into? What was she going to do? Just leave and hope someone found him? But then he would try and find her, he wouldn't of course but she didn't want him to think he'd imagined it all.
