Shadow silflayed for most of the day until her thoughs took her away from the world around her. Now her thoughts circled what had happened. Shaking her head to get the images of her dead marli out of her mind failed to work. It only make her think about it more. Was she still laying there dead, half eaten by the weasels now.. rotting and attracting more elil to finish them off?
It was painful, but she couldn't help but to think about it. Her brown eyes closed and when they opened, Shadow watched Frith set. The red reminded her of the blood. The doe kit shook her head, ashamed and scared to have thought that. Behind her she heard a noise and jumped around almost expecting to see a weasel. It was the captain that had brought her to the warren. "I'm sorry, but I think you should leave. It is up to you, but some of the warren rabbits were afraid that you aren't safe. It would be the best thing for the warren and I'm sure it would be best for yourself," the captain said to the kit. He was trying to be nice about it but no matter how it was said, it couldn't sound nice. "Oh," came a squeek from Shadow. It seemed like a force was pulling her head. She had to look behind her. The doe kit turned her head and stared into the darkness. There wasn't anything there. Anything there that she could see anyway! Oh Frith! "You could leave in the morning if you are afraid to travel at night with the elil out," the captain said, feeling a little bad for the kit. "No... I'll leave now," Shadow replied, blinking her eyes. The warren was full of elil and they could kill her just as easily. Maybe she was elil herself. It was her fears that consumed her. "Alright, I'll inform the rah," the captain said, leaving the doe alone silf without turning to look back at her.
Shadow was afraid. Should she walk towards the light of the sunset, leaving the dark of the growing night at her back to creep up on her? Or should she walk towards the night, having Frith at her back to protect her but walking into something that was full of what she didn't but (in a way) did want to see? Shadow decided to run towards the sunset. She could see Frith. Maybe if she never saw the elil, she would be alright.
