who stole your heart and the key?

[steelmyself]

In the dark, you taste something sweet and tart on your tongue, almost like apple but not quite: pomegranate juice, out of nowhere. A hint of something metallic accompanies it.

You fall down.

She stabs a piece of withered egg and vegetable with a sword and tries it...

"Oh." She winces. "I guess I'm not up to his level in the kitchen."

I'm certain that it'll be possible for you! Please learn as best as you're able, Miss.

"All right! I'll keep trying. It can't hurt to learn, right?" She beams. "So are you going to keep on going through here?" She gestures at the other side of the valley, where the walls narrow in again.

Re: THE FIELD

"Here." She holds out one of the swords, hilt first. "This should help light your way."

It does seem to be glowing faintly.

[unaffective]

Oh! Thank you very much, Miss!

[There's some awkwardness to how she takes it, but it's still pretty clear she's at least held a sword before.]

[unaffective]

Thank you.

[It occurs to her, belatedly, that she doesn't really know what she's doing. Not that she has for a while, anyway - not for the past few years, so - that's fine, huh?

She gives another wave and heads off on her way.]
