Seamless Timing

That night, Aakifahlynn took a while to calm down. She was hyped, and the long bath did nothing to calm her sprinting heart. Her adrenaline was still fully activated as her mind replayed the events.

She had ensured she scrubbed every trace of blood and shampooed her hair. She had also checked on her garments by the time she was through with her bath.

They were almost gone, but she threw in some more wood just to make sure the flames got all of it.

Aakifahlynn suddenly laughed out loud at her crazy and impulsive move as she laid on her bed. She had been planning everything perfectly. This was out of character for her. What was she doing?

Goddess forbid she woke up to the castle guards at her door in the morning.

How could she be so reckless? And yet, Aakifahlynn could not bring herself to regret her decision. She recalled Elder Zev's confused face and laughed like a maniac. 'He must have been so muddled, wondering what madness she was spouting.’
