Summary
Goneril looked down at her body disappearing beneath the dark water. “They think I’m dangerous. I can tell. But I am dangerous…so it’s alright if people hate me because of that.”
Halsin frowned. “Man should not begrudge the wolf for their teeth. It’s simply their nature.”
She lifted a brow. “Then I am a wolf to be tamed?”
“I don’t believe a wolf can be tamed,” he said. “But they can be fed and offered a place by a warm fire. They may be shown care in a way that allows them their space to roam. And then, perhaps, they may deem another worthy of their time and protection - even if they never allow a gentle touch in return.”

“Shadowheart has healed me many times and never fixed my head,” Goneril tells him. “Whatever happened to me is too old to heal. This is just the way I am now.”
“Perhaps. Though not all healing is magic.”
