Shader
Stepping off the platform, Shader found himself in a whole new town. He had managed to bribe the train station clerk into disclosing her destination. It was however only a week after her escape that he'd managed to track her to the station. So he mingled among the station's merchants, asking if they'd seen the woman he was after. He didn't know why he was so furious at her. He'd fed and took care of her. He had even managed to give her a clean slate, dissuading the men sent to capture her. But she was the only one to escape his grip. Perhaps it was a matter of pride, that he'd never felt so betrayed. That he'd never felt so vulnerable before.
