Seona stared at the throne room in awe. It was beautiful. She quickly stepped back so she could capture the doorway into the room. Pulling out her sketchbook from the bag slung over her shoulder, she seated herself in the entryway. It wasn’t long before she snapped her book closed and stood. She looked back to see Inerys making her way to where she stood.

“Done?” Seona asked her friend.

Inerys nodded.

“I want to sketch a few more places here, you up for it?” she asked.

Inerys shrugged, “Why not? We have an hour to sketch after all and he didn’t say how many sketches we could do only that they had to show the light and shadows.”

Seona nodded in agreement and they continued to make their way through the fortress.

They didn’t see the young man hiding in the shadows watching them leave.

Loki

Loki searched his memories. He knew the information on Seona Eames had to be in his memory somewhere. Seona wasn’t that common of a name. He just had to remember where he’d heard that name before. No matter how hard he tried to remember, he just couldn’t place the name.

He growled, frustrated. He’d always thought his memory was good but perhaps the millennia hadn’t been as kind to his memory as he thought. He shook his head. That was a disturbing thought that didn’t need to be in his head.
