Numb. Maeve had been numb for too long. Trying to steel herself to it. Trying to keep her head down, deal with it, cope. Coping as best she can. Can't cope. You can only shake so much before you can't anymore. The bite of a crop at her ankles. The sting at teeth around her ears, the scrap around her snout. Forcing her back, pushing her down. Trying his damndest to break her. Though bits of her personality still glimmered through, how much of it was hers? Suffering had become a cornerstone of her existence.

It was never supposed to be this way. A kidnapped navigator, and then what? They were the only survivors. He'd needed her. Why couldn't she take that power back. Every time she'd tried to rise up against him, he'd beaten her back down. A navigator, a healer-- the most valuable she could be, and yet he treats her like this? It doesn't make sense. Though Maeve knows she's worth more, the brute comes after her ankles once again. Whimpering. Stumbling forward. She's sorry.

Not very fast. Too dense to be very fast, she has a hard time keeping up. Though the tender, fair thing would never complain about being tired to him, exhaustion has soaked deep into her bones. Another crack of the crop across her ankles, and Maeve stumbled forward. The climb up the steep cliffs and to solid ground had been long and hard, all that after an exhausting swim? Before that, the march. Tired would not begin to explain it. Crumbling in the sandy soil before her, Maeve was sorry. She wasn't made for this.
