469. Read

Mauve gave Louis one last odd look before she bent her head to look at the words on the page and tried to see if she could actually read it.

She blinked as her tongue failed her. They weren't strange letters but the mix didn't make much sense.

"Sentar'kara," she started.

"Sinthar'Kra," he corrected. "Try to say it properly. It's important."

She gave him the side eye. "If it's so important why don't you do it yourself."

He groaned, "There is no point if you don't say it properly."

"Well, I have never seen these words in my life before. There is no way I will pronounce them properly." She gave him an eye roll at the last word.

"I will help you, just listen to me."

"Alright," she replied and handed him the book.

"I don't need it."

She gave him a bewildered look but didn't argue.

"Sinthar'kra, brithel'onos,

Vulna'shir, fyre'el'dros.

Ithron'kathar, yl'sha'dar,

Fyrin'deloth, solen'var."
