Genevieve Colmondeley
It was the same thing Margaret always said to her when she came to visit. Of which Genevieve always responded with a sigh and reassurance that she would be fine.
Yet, this time... Aramis had taken her hand and at first it seemed he would give her his usual suave words, with that charming, most certainly faked expression. But, for the briefest moment that winning smile had shifted to a frown. He was sincerly concerned. Aramis suddenly released her hand, that moment broken and his usual expression across his face.
Genevieve shifted in her seat. Could things change so quickly over the course of a few days? She wasn't sure what to believe now.
"I had thought it was worth the risk to come. The people here need-"
Margaret cut her off. "Aye, aye, we need many things, but who will watch over us if harm comes to our Lady Colmondeley? Your brother can not live forever!" The meaning of that phrase was not explained as the older woman scuttled across the floor to plant a kiss on Genevieve's cheek. "Promise this is the last, mi'lady. Us resourceful lot will be fine."
"I feel as if I'm being bullied." Genevieve responded with a resigned sigh. "If I promise, you would still send word to me if something happened here? And I can't say I will not come back if there is information for Talin."
Margaret clicked her tongue. "Don't fear, don't fear! This handsome old fox will take care of it, won't he? If not, he'll have a pack of us with pitchforks at his doorsteps!" The old woman cackled and gave Aramis a good hard slap on the back. "Now, ya get a goin' before the sun sets! Go on, go on! Get out of here, both of ya!"
The old lady ushered Genevieve and Aramis out of the little hut, back in to the cool air of the hidden villager camp. There were still a few curious looks, but otherwise the scant people ambling about had returned to their business.
