    Summary

    You can barely hear Ghost over the rain on the solarium walls. Leaning back on your heels, you wipe your forehead on your shirt, trying to think about what to say to him. You choose your words carefully, chewing on them until they feel right.

    "You would really let me leave?"

    It's Ghost's turn to think about his words; you can feel his eyes boring a hole in your back.

    "No."

    You don't say anything else to him as you turn back towards the floor.

    "Don't you think your family will come looking for you?"

    "Probably. But they won't go any farther than the forest edge. They're terrified of the monster that lives here."

    "And you're not."

    "Not yet."
