Shadows

The Estate's meticulously kept gardens, including a hedgemaze that students have occasionally described as "sadistic" and a sizable rose garden. Benches in shaded spots are plentiful, and the gardens are popular to study in on pleasant days. The nearby stables are still maintained with a number of well-heeled equines.

"Interest, yes, but I find it lacking in useful information."

"Unless you want your thread to end, you don't go after Nornir at all. Which isn't exactly helpful information. 'Don't mess with the thing that's messing with you.'"

"Oh, if she was messing with you, you'd have known it by now. It's quite likely she's been around since you were born."

"You're not understanding the mentality. This is a long game for them. Changing tactics on the fly goes against their nature."

"Then why bother at all? With that mindset, once your plan's scuttled, it's scuttled and there's no point in trying to fix it because you don't have the ability to adapt."

"I think I'm out of my depth, see no life rafts, and the waves are only getting higher. There's only one thing that happens then." She looks Isolde in the eye, "You drown."

"Who have you talked to?"

Isolde pushes off the branch she's leaning against, angling forward and regarding Wanda intently.

"No one," she says, "Well, there was apparently some guy at the club in Chelmsford, but I don't remember a bit of it. I only know because people said it happened."

"You cannot say you are drowning if you haven't reached for any hands," she chides.

"There's no hands. Everyone who could help is just angry with me or each other or they think I need to be looked after as if I'm some sort of child."

"Well, maybe I'll have the benefit of hindsight some day," she grumps, pushing off the tree and turning to go.
