"Oh, you don't?" Elwyn questioned. "We get all sorts of types that use magic, and they all talk of grand universities and royal court wizards. I always imagined ivory domes and columns, like the drawings of old temples Sister Luhan used to let me look at as a girl."
Radagon's next statement gave her pause.
"Wait, if I need rest, what might you do then?" She asked, before shaking her head. "I suppose gods don't need their rest like we do."
Gods, or wizards. But which one are you?
Elwyn's shake became a nod, and she slipped off her dress. Growing up bathing in the river around the other villagers had stripped her of much of her shame, though how Radagon had been eying her and the burn of her own questioning passions left the red flush in her cheeks. She was thankful for the relative darkness of her bedchamber as she slid into her covers, leaving Radagon to find a seat in the corner of the room. Sleeplessness kept her tossing and turning, excitement and dread in equal measure keeping the release of slumber just out of reach. Every echoed footstep sent pangs of panic jolting through her spine, and when the panic died down her mind buzzed with questions better left addressed on the morrow.
Radagon's presence still alarmed Elwyn when she awoke. She did not remember falling asleep, and judging by the lingering pain and slowness behind her eyes it had not been a fruitful rest. Part of her still believed that perhaps all of yesterday was simply a waking dream, but a pinch to her wrist and a deep breath confirmed that she was not caught in the world of dreams.
"Did you rest?" She asked, stretching and standing up.
Panic seized at her heart. Had she woken before the wake-up call? Elwyn rushed to dress herself, unsure if Radagon had answered her first question.
"I need to report for my daily tasks," she explained as she laced her shoes. "You should stay here, stay out of trouble for the both of us. We can discuss my learning when my day ends at sunset."
