Mother Sinistra summons her daughter to break the news of the previous night. Sinistra: "April escaped last night." Lucistra: "She what?! That's it, I'm going after her." She stands up from the desk. Sinistra: "No, Lucistra. Sit down. I'm already angry at you for leaving the Temple with her earlier in the week. That was VERY dangerous. I've told you I don't want you leaving the Temple." Lucistra sits down, indignant. "Why? You brought me back here to get her, didn't you?" Sinistra: "Yes, but I told you to capture her only when she comes to the Temple. You are NOT to go outside, Lucistra. Let me make that perfectly clear. There are people out there who will...who will kill you." Lucistra crosses her arms defiantly. "I can take care of myself." Sinistra: "I know. But not against these people." Lucistra: "What people? Why won't you tell me what's going on?" Sinistra: "I'm sorry, Lucistra. It's just better that you don't know." Lucistra pauses, frustrated yet again by her mother's secrecy. "Has it got something to do with my father?" Sinistra: "No. This has nothing to do with him." But even though her mother is a master of persuasion, Lucistra can tell this is far from the truth. Credits: La Sombra by Dark_Whisper Desk from Free Section Wall from Free Section
