Title: See, Hear, Feel Rating: PG Prompt: 16. can you hear the distance Summary: There are different ways of knowing.
We got to Gold Ridge two days ago. Daja was seated in a clearing, half an hour's walk from the castle. If anyone happened past, it would look like she was meditating, but actually, she was talking to Tris.
I know.
You saw us?
Wind's been out of the west, Tris answered patiently. I can't see or hear.
Oh. Daja felt blood rise in her cheeks. Usually, only the most intense emotions came through their magical bond. I didn't realize...
I was looking. I knew about when you'd be getting there. There was an awkward pause, and then she continued. Though you were really glad to find the caravan in residence.
I was, Daja admitted. I am. But listen, that's not why we're talking. That doesn't mean anything. That was a lie, and she knew it. Let's find out if we can visit the caverns.
And the volcano? Tris asked, almost giddy with hopefulness.
Of course. Daja reached for Tris, weaving fingers of their magics together. Hang on tight, saati. Here we go.

Oh, I love how Daja/Polyam rears its head in everything we write. ;D

Ev, thank you!
*rereads* LOL, Lisa, I wasn't thinking Daja/Polyam at all with this one. Though I suppose it could be one factor in Daja being so happy the caravan is there.

Hahaha!! Silly me, looking for more in everything I read. (it does work beautifully that way, though.)

Oh, I'm definitely not saying it won't crop up again later because that would imply that I know where I'm going with it in the first place! That just wasn't the intention behind this one.
