No, he thought, shaking himself. You can help her. You have to help her. You...you were just like her. Had he been, though? It was hard to remember those days. They were clouded somehow. Exhaling softly, Kaladin strode forward and took Ash's arm. "You can't hear me, can you?" Ash shrieked, scrambling off the bed and pressing herself in the opposite corner of the room from him, crouching on the floor and looking at him with an animalistic terror in her eyes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaladin made another pile, adding it to hers. Then he ran a hand through his hair and looked back at her the same why she was looking at him. "What?" He whispered. "Is it so hard to believe I want to talk to you? Or do you still not understand?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaladin took out his canteen and poured a little water onto the pile he'd added to. He then molded it into the shape of a building, and put a little stick on top for a flag pole. He felt absurd and ridiculous, but what did it matter? He dripped some water near Ash's pile and nodded encouragingly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part Of The Narrative she/her Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Kaladin breathed out, standing. "I'm going outside." He walked loudly, trying to make sure Ash heard him. Then he stepped out, nonchalantly leaving the door open. T The guard standing watch by Ash's room protested. "You can't leave it open! She's dangerous!" Kaladin rolled his eyes. "Storm off. I'm staying here. Go on a lunch break or something." The guard left. He was one of the ones folded into the ranks because of staffing issues; Kaladin hadn't trained him personally. Kaladin sank to the floor, leaned against the wall, and waited. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lazy string of smoke curled out the door and hung in the air. No! He hurried inside and took the moss from Ash, crushing it under his boot and mixing it with mud.
