Where to Next?

Skye's POV

"So how do we get in contact with him?"

"How did you know he wasn't dead?" Jasper was a little surprised. I shrugged.

"Deities are immortal?" I offered.

"You seemed mighty upset yesterday."

"So did you."

"Well, it's hard watching your siblings take their own bodies to the grave."

"But you knew their spirits were still alive."

"That doesn't make it any easier." Jasper's glare reminded me of my own family's death. I sobered up immediately.

"Oy, we're leaving! Stay here if you want, but if you go, I'll know if you've taken anything." Hetdreat and his company left to do who knows what leaving Jasper and I alone in their safe haven.

"I'm sorry."

"Me too." We both scratched our heads in awkward silence.

"Anyway, how do we get in touch with Nik?" I asked again.

"We must sacrifice three young virgins and pour their blood among the ruins of Eak-aldamar."

"Be serious." I deadpanned instantly. Jasper held his hands up in surrender.
