Raphai, still stood at her side, her own eyes even grimmer. If this were to be Sheol, Lunai would be the gatekeeper, gently allowing for damned souls to pass, only her presence being the main terror, and Raphai would be the main fire found inside, that burnt up every part of that soul. And to think only the gatekeeper was this terrifying. What had she done. Someone save her.
This time the swallowing happened as she managed to say. "I really was at the Library."
This time she heard Raphai's voice. "Are you saying we are blind?"
"No. I would not. I did not."
Raphai stared intently at her. "I know your Nurice Lunai may be blind, but I went in there myself."
Lunai turned to Raphai. "Excuse me?"
Totally ignoring her Raphai asked her again. "So where were you?"
What was she to say. She really was at the Library. "I really was at the Library."
There was silence amongst them, then more silence, then more— okay it was just a long one.
