Amidst the Crash of Worlds

Sitka winced and gave a little hiss of feigned emotional pain at the woman's retort of his entertainment value, or lack thereof. "I'm not? Pity. Guess I need to find some new material," he said, though the teasing tone remained in his voice. She was quite short-spoken, it was a bit of a shame. Trying to maintain conversation with her was becoming quite the effort, one he wasn't sure was worth continuing. She wouldn't say a word of what she'd seen here to anyone, of that he was certain, but he couldn't figure out why she was still hanging around if a part of her didn't actually enjoy this. Perhaps there was some masochism behind that lovely face? It did provoke his dark mind to curiosity; what else would she be hiding behind those eyes?

She flinched at his passive threat. Something in his words or his tone had shaken her to her core. A curious brow raised above a gleaming steely eye. Whatever that had been about he knew he had no chance of finding out what it was. Well, whatever... Pushing off of the ground, the brute rose back to his full height, giving his multi toned coat a shake to free it of loose pebbles and grass before stepping back over to where his armor was drying, putting more space between him and the odd female.

"Well, best be on your way then, since there's nothing for you here," he said from afar, lying down on the bank of the river again and facing away from the stranger. "Feel free to mention this to anyone you want. No one will believe you anyway." What would she tell anyone anyway? That she saw a murder by the river, but there's no body because it washed away and the killer let her go free and unharmed for no apparent reason? She'd sound insane for telling such a fantastical tale, and he'd be long gone by then.
