As he turned to her, she picked up her necklace and he was able to make out the engraved letter it held. Hmmm, that explained where Mortis got the name ‘Dee’ from. Assuming this confirmed that she could read, he started to move to the side to offer her better space to read the Obelisk. The shrug and shake of her head however tell a different story.

Once he had completed the list, he moved again. Leading her towards the side of the Col that housed his own den. He didn’t take her up the cliffside to his home, but instead made his way into the Warren beneath it. Finding a cave there, he directed her inside. “You can stay here. There is food and other supplies in this bag. Make use of them, you look weary to the bone. Halo will be here in the morning” He explained, waiting as she made her into the den, and placing the bag on the floor beside her.
