Assuming Fia was with them at some point? Also took some liberty with how the guards treated her and stuff, hope it's okay? +2 points.


She had been taken into custody almost immediately after the meeting, but she had not been alone for long. There had been two others, an older and younger female, but now there was only one. Foxglove had not spoken to her much at all, nor had she even been speaking to Szellem. Her pain was his and he had become just as silent as she.

It was humiliating to be here, having been taken and locked away for no reason she could understand. It had been a mistake to ask for a letter to be sent to her father. Though she could neither read nor write and had merely wanted someone to send one for her, the guard had chosen to leave the ropes around her wrists. The gypsy girl did not know what would happen now, but she felt as if she would be there forever.

Would she die here? It was a fleeting thought that passed through her mind each time someone came to see them. Each time the prisoners were approached, she feared that it would be the last time. Despite the hopelessness of this situation, the sadness she felt at having been imprisoned, Foxglove did not want to die in body, too. She enjoyed being in the world of the living, even if she did not belong, just as Lolita hadn't. Foxglove had accepted it long ago. Life was enjoyable, usually.

She looked to the door as someone approached and felt herself relax. Dawali would not be there to hurt them. Even if she did not understand why he simply stepped aside, she did not think it her place to question. She was new to AniWaya culture compared to the others. "Hello," she said softly, greeting her former Kalona in a way she hoped would get no one in trouble. She did not yet mention her raw wrists; the other prisoner seemed worse off than she was, though they were both wilting. Age seemed to play in Foxglove's favor, however, and she wished for Dawali to tend the other prisoner first.
