Helena loved sitting next to the lake. It was one of her favorite spots in the village, and sadly, one that she hadn't had the chance to visit recently. The spot, by the edge of the lake and the start of the forest, leaning against her favorite tree, that place held so many memories for Helena. She'd met, fell in love and even fought with her Evan there. She'd smashed plates there when emotions became too much for her. She'd been sitting there when she'd read that her Daddy was in the village. She'd been attacked by Kracken there and almost died! But it had been since about when Evan left, at least, the Evan that she had fallen in love with, since she'd been to the spot that she had once claimed as her own. With the recent attack on the village, her sickness, and now working under Percy who seemed to have a stick shoved so far up his...
It was the perfect time to return to the lake. However, Helena hadn't expected anyone else to be there when she wandered out of the tree. Unfortunately, she had yet to meet Greg (and actually remember it). "Oh, I am very sorry, sir!" She had almost walked right into him, almost tumbled over him because she wasn't paying attention to more then just getting to her spot and stopping to think.
Sometimes, sitting down out of the way, was the best way to go.
