The reality of her situation didn’t truly hit her until she turned to look over her shoulder, noting her uncle’s estate was but a tiny dot in the distance. Turning back, thoughts run through her head about just how much had changed within the past few hours compared to the relative constantness of her life all thanks to a chance encounter with a certain bandit.
She feels a subtle press of arms against her sides and hears McCree’s voice in her right ear. “Having second thoughts?”
The question carries a hidden, second inquiry underneath its tone – does she want to stay with her uncle? Sombra wonders if McCree’s truly the menace that her uncle and other nobles paint him to be. Shaking her head, she looks ahead, certain of her decision. “It’s just different.” She’s never been anywhere beyond the convent she’s lived at for the past twelve years and her uncle’s manor. To think there was more than the road that led from each place. Her head swivels from side to side, enjoying the scenery of the countryside and the stretching acres of farmland.
“Suppose this view’s a lot more to take in than the view from your chambers, eh?”
