Act 4

[untrueheart]

[The sun is on its way down, clouds moving to fill in the spaces left by fading light, when a tired, staggering Rue makes her way back home again. At first she can't tell which part of the village she landed in; after a while she recognizes the road leading south and trudges along. She isn't sure whether to be sour or grateful that she has shoes on.

Eventually, after a nice long walk and a thorough freezing, Rue wanders into Seventh Heaven hoping for warmth and relative peace and quiet. Of which there is never any guarantee, an astounding feat for a town so small.]

[She can see the girl starting to drift off, and says nothing. There's definitely enough space in the booth for her to lie down and take a much needed rest, and Perona actually did want to have a late lunch at the restaurant herself, perhaps catch up on the goings-on of Luceti as well.

She orders meal for herself, quietly so as not to rouse the young lady, and goes about her business while Rue sleeps.]
