Ash would take the lead up to the castle walls, not seeming really on edge as what was festering inside. She still felt safe being in the castle and safer being with her brother. Maybe it was more the fear and looking over the edge and finding someone waiting for her outside. She didn't know for sure.
She may have seemed a little hesitant once they reached the top, but as was the rest of their family she was strong taking that step forward. Eyes scanned over the beaches towards the shimmering shore, but that's not where her worry lay. It could have been, since the group that had her captive were wayfinders only from their island to the mainland when it came to resources. But her attention stuck into the south western lands from The Hallows. It was where Tamsyn had found her, but also where they would have been residing off the mainland and where they would have been coming from looking for her. They may have given up, but she knew if they crossed paths on any usual day it wouldn't be good for her. It was always that fear of what if.
As they took the walk across the wall, her head slightly turning in those directions while she tried to hide the fact. Her gaze eventually turned back to Art with that faint smile which seemed to make her relax a little bit. "Thank you." Maybe no big deal for him to his sister, but still. Time had made some kind of strain between her and the rest of her family at least on her end. She just needed to put down her roots again, work on her fears, and maybe one day everything would be normal again.
