"What happened in there?" Rivena asked, touching her hand upon Revian's face. "And look at you! You're all messed up. She didn't attack you, did she?"
Revian sighed, turning away from her physical contact. "Nothing happened. She just asked me a question, not a huge deal."
Rivena's eyes opened in realization, causing her to step back to give him space. "Ah, that's something she loves to do. Despite her ability to force you to tell truths being called a curse, she doesn't ever hold back when it comes to abusing it."
"That reminds me, she kept mentioning curses, but I don't think I've ever learned a great deal about them. Did she get it the same way I have mine?" he asked, pacing forward to stand between Varek and Rivena.
"That's..." Rivena blurted, unsure of how to respond.
