Made up?! Aeotha rounded on him and glared with everything that as in her. He had no idea what was made up and what wasn't, did he? This kind of thing, this place his explanation. That was made up! This could not be happening but those Mind flayers.. the illithid, they were real. Too real. Sometimes she could close her eyes and that blurry memory that wasn't even her own would haunt her. She could have left the temple, she could have even just stopped travelling and settled down somewhere. It wasn't as if it was impossible. Her life was just dangerous. She never turned down someone in need. She stared at him for a long time before he began talking again.
She hadn't told him about the mind flayers had she? She recalled mentioning them before entering the underdark together. No one had spoken up then, but when first setting ones eyes on the underdark was a daunting thing for any man, woman, elf, or prince. She almost smiled, almost, but it was in memory and the memory fell away as he continued to talk.
"Why do you ask me questions when you don't want me to answer them, or know that I couldn't possibly begin to answer them?" Aeotha muttered in annoyance, crossing her arms and looking from side to side, front to back, then back up towards the sky.
"I thought we would be finding them once we'd made it.. through the fall. You said you'd seen some place like this before, or been through something like this Skandra. Been through this before? How did it happen last time? Who had caused it last time.. isn't it possible that.. it's just happened again?" She pinched her arm hard and frowned.
