The cold of the water didn't bother her, even while the spotted woman seemed so reactive to it. She was numb in more than one way, it could have been obvious or maybe not. Her self dignity felt like it was under low.

Duchess stood as the fae asked how she felt about the strange changes, backing away from the freezing water but waited a few seconds before deciding she should leave. She didn't want company it seemed, "I feel like you should be careful from now on." She couldn't quite put a pointer on it herself but, whatever was happening around them made her feel like it could physically hurt them. It hurt her... she believed. Was it the moon?  Or was it some other sort of force just waiting to expose itself from the shadows. She felt like a victim. But that wasn't new.
