    Brighid nodded slowly to Blue's question, mainly because her inquiring mind had briefly pulled to the animated vines harassing Gio before she gave their host her full attention. "Yes, well, I believe it had more to do with a Shroudweaver and his crony in Undergrove than Gio. Thank you." She...

    Private Debt

    Brighid's childhood memories came from a very different direction than Trevor's. As a girl she had seen sticks as magic wands, which were much better for imaginary zapping than physical whacking, and had the added benefit of avoiding mother's wrath. His tale reminded her somewhat of those...

    Brighid attempted to help Gio push his wrecked vehicle, but the task seemed destined for ruin even with their combined effort. She felt a guilty sense of relief when they continued on without it. She said very little as she followed Gio to his supposed ally. Partly it was due to a growing sense...

    While Brighid had anticipated the violence, seeing it play out still put her in such a state of shock that at first she could only nod in reply. In fact, she wanted nothing more than to move away from this scene that wrenched her stomach until she felt nauseated. Perhaps she felt some empathy...

    She had to hand it to Trevor - if he was mocking her, at least he was doing it in inscrutable silence. That was decidedly more agreeable than the reception she'd been given by her 'friends' back in Brighthearth. Still, what had seemed a such brilliant idea in the alcoholic haze of last evening...

    Brighid held back her panic as she clumsily attempted to block the oncoming blade with her own. She stifled a cry as sharp pain spread up her left side, making her stagger her feet to keep her balance. She dared not glance away from Randal for even a moment for fear of letting on that she wasn't...

    Private Debt

    Brighid's face brightened considerably at Trevor's request. She wanted nothing more than to share all of the information she'd been slowly gathering from every passing bookseller, scribe, historian and bard she'd come across with academic eagerness. Taking stock of the scene before her, she...

    Private Debt

    Brighid slept fitfully that night. Her overactive mind had become riled up by the fact that her father had sent bloody mercenaries after her, and no amount of exhaustion could completely dampen the mixture of fear and anger she felt. At one point she awakened with the unpleasant sense that she...

    Brighid's trepidation gave way to a sense of unfettered momentum and freedom for but the briefest moment before she realized their mortal peril. She screamed as a mass of living oak came flying at them far too fast; then they hit a bump that made her stomach lurch into her throat. The world...

    Brighid's expression remained carefully impassive throughout Trevor's explanation. Of course she should have expected that her recent ramblings wouldn't be without repercussion; not when she still held some value in the eyes of the patron of House Kovingar. The thought gave her a small shudder...

    "Rich girl?" she repeated with a raised eyebrow, although it wasn't the title that that irked her. The warm haze of intoxication almost completely vanished as she was jolted to sobriety by Trevor's second question; or rather, what his line of questioning implicated. Her russet eyes gave him an...

    She blinked, taken by surprise at the question. She thought she'd been quite subtle about her reasons for being on the road, mainly because she was convinced that secrets only went further into hiding when asked openly about. That, and in her experience people had a tendency to laugh at you when...

    Private Debt

    Brighid had righted the table and begun collecting cards and coins on the top of it. She paused in the midst of her task at Trevor's question. "Did I mean to what?" she asked before she slowly followed his gaze, and understanding dawned on her. She shook her head with a chuckle and tried to...

    "Yeah. Maybe?" Brighid replied with an expression of honest bewilderment. The erratic tune that had latched itself, unwarranted, to her mind now slunk away as quickly, leaving not a trace to remember it by. Now she was trying with all of her willpower not to burst out laughing at the absurdity...

    Brighid held on mostly in terror as the machine roared through the supernatural storm. She could barely hear Gio's voice in the tremendous pandemonium. She could hardly hear her own fragmented thoughts in it. Somewhere deep down she felt a faint wrongness in the very air, like water running...
