Aria
The next few days, I lie low, just because I do not want to draw too much attention to myself yet. Although by now, I am sure news of me must be spreading fast in the village.
Ugh, maybe I should have returned by night instead.
Today, I just have to leave the house. I have been inside all day for three days now, yeesh I need some fresh air at least.
I discreetly slid my dagger into its sheath before leaving the house.
It is already evening time by the time I leave the house. Therefore the prying eyes will not be so bad.
I walk down the lonely path leading into a lonelier part of the neighborhood. I just want to be alone, maybe practice a little.
Behind me, I can hear the bushes rustling so loudly. I stop in my tracks, look over my shoulders, but I see no one.
"It should be one of those stray animals then," I shake my head, continuing my walk.
The rustling becomes louder as soon as I turn on my heels.
