Rise Against!

Lies.

Recluse spoke lies, but Wren did not say anything. It was not her place to say anything, watching and waiting to see what would happen. Her cowardice about refusing to battle for a former slave's freedom spoke wonders to her character. The brunette would only rise when Recluse had the nerve to run from the choices she made, releasing Medusa.

"You're welcome in Menagerie" she said when Recluse left "I know you're a great fighter, and I'm sorry it ended like this" she sucked in a breath "for both of you" She shifted her eyes to look at the Habari alpha - a speck on the horizon now "but don't wish someone's kid dead, even if they wronged you. It's not right." Wren shook her head, her only contribution. Her only scold.

"Be bigger than they are, as a Paladin of Menagerie." The Warden walked with Medusa back to the Gorge. /end
