She was waiting.
Echo got to the top of a ridge of rocks, and there, outlined against the night and the storm, was the shrine. And outside it, a void serraptor stood, drenched with rain, unmoved by the crack of thunder and flash of lightning.
Echo approached her cautiously. Who knew what she was going to do.
But she simply stood there, waiting. Her expressionless eyes followed him.
He tried reaching out with his mind, even though he couldn't really do it well, and though she also had thought-speak she had put up a wall around her mind, so he could not reach her.
He sighed and entered the shrine, Zhira following.
They walked down a long, warmly-lit hallway. He wondered why Zhira was so secretive, so different from them. He was different than most other pets too, but the serraptor...
She didn't even try to communicate.
She just shut herself away from everyone.
