Perdita's steps were quick on the ground as soon as Sthena sounded his warning. Knowing him, she was sure he had his plans ahead of whatever that impersonating witch had in mind.
Leaving the building entirely, Perdita walked a narrow, cleared path surrounded by trees and bushes while in search of Daemon.
On the way, she saw one of Daemon's men approach with frantic steps. She inquired from him, "Where is Daemon?"
"I do not know, my lady." The man answered, his breath errant as his steps earlier. He pointed in the direction towards his left, saying, "He had asked that I and the other men scout the area while he finished up with the witches. I have gone back to meet him but couldn't find him nor my fellow men."
Oh no! Perdita exclaimed in her. "Where did you say you left him last? Lead the way." She ordered, immediately stepping up to see what had happened. Suddenly she paused, turning abruptly to the man, and without warning she snapped his wrist with her nail.
