Hayze was angered by the words hitting his ears from the fairy. He hated himself for being so transparent in his outburst. Or perhaps Ria was just particularly discerning. Whatever the case, he was leaving.
The shadow listened to Ria speak for a moment before racing out of the Inn after Hayze. It moved under his feet and attempted to reassert itself in Hayze’s mind. He stumbled, falling to a knee. Then his head slowly turned in the direction of the voice. ”This... IS a safe place...” He agreed, the words coming out labored. ”But not for you... as long as I’m here...” The shadow looked as if it was struggling to stay connected to Hayze’s feet. ”The drawing... of you... Could I have it?” The shadow asked hopefully, using Hayze’s mouth. Hayze would probably never purposefully come back to this place. And although his interaction with Silkie was brief and indirect, the shadow wanted... something... he could remember her by.
