Chapter 386
The night was as silent as death when Katelina dashed outside for a last minute outhouse visit. Jorick stayed behind in the cabin, his face visible at the window, but his attention on the conversation he had with Oren. Like a child she'd been admonished to go straight there and straight back, as if she'd want to go for a nature hike in the dark.
She had a brief view of colored ribbons in the sky before she shut herself in the dilapidated shed. When she finished, she slipped outside and stopped to stare. Wisps of eerie green fog pulsed and twisted above her. The sight was both beautiful and terrifying, and she fell back against the building, transfixed and paralyzed.
