Matt and Pyrgus continue coming in the direction of the blood. There is a huge splat against the wall and drops continuing across the alley.
The duo stops dead when they see where it leads to.
Laurianne's house.
Wisty bites back her retort and her anger. "Just let me help. I know I don't seem like much, but I know what I'm doing. I'd like to stay with this group the easy way, not the hard, painful way." She didn't say that last part like a threat, just with the same saddish tone.
The two watch in silence as the door swings open. There, standing on the doorframe, is a young girl about 15. She has slim flame-coloured hair going down in two ponytails on the side of her head. The hairbands, holding them up is attached to a light blue headband on her head with wing designs on the side. She is wearing a white and yellow skintight dress and holds a staff in her hand.
Matt was the first to speak. "Are you Laurianne?"
"Sure am!
This time it is Pyrgus. "Do you know what that blood is from.?"
Laurianne replied with a smile. "I found someone half dead earlier. I think he may be one of the Maduates. Polite one he is. He is asleep. Should be awake soon"
