"Well… It'd probably be better to do it from farther away. So he won't know it's us."

With a sigh, Anna followed the two. "What if we get caught?" She asked, crossing her arms and shivering in the cold.

"Try not to worry so much. We'll be careful." Ceana said to Anna, jumping from rock to rock.

The trail branched in three directions at the edge of the wood: one going North to the castle, one going South towards the rest of the Empire, and one continuing Eastward, winding back up into the cliffs, full of shallow caves perfect for hiding. "Due East," Nial whispered, watching warily as a sentry made its way up the road going North.

"What does that mean?" Anna whispered back, twirling a lock of hair.

"Up towards the cliffs. Did you not listen in Geography class?" Niall rolled his eyes jokingly and made his way quietly into the open. "oast is clear, let's go."

Ceana followed Niall and Anna along the trail, gaze raking the cliff to their left and the trees spread out sparsely along the trail.

Anna turned a bit red, embarrassed. "You know I have to skip school a lot," she muttered, following slowly and carefully.

Niall laughed quietly and led them up the trail until a little rabbit trail branched off to the left. He followed it carefully, ducking low under the Pine branches, until they emerged into the first rays of dawn at a small, rocky clearing braced on one side by a couple of small, gnarled trees clinging to a cliff and the other by a shallow cave. "I should be able to reach him from here. You two sure you want to do this?"

"I never back out." Ceana huffed, puffing out her chest. She observed the wild scenery, awe unfurling in her heart. It was all so brokenly beautiful.

(sorry I was gone, been a busy day)
"No," Anna replied in a bitter tone, following them anyway.

(you're good :3)
Niall turned back to Anna suddenly, concern etched in his usually playful face. "It'll be alright. Greece is safe, sfer than here even."
(haha dramatic irony you're welcome
you'll see
unless you're going over the Roman Empire in history rn
in which case you already know
this is almost the exact time the empire falls
mwahaha)

(omg)
Anna shifted a little, looking down at the ground. "Um… okay," she said hesitantly. "I just don't like going too far from home, that's all."

Ceana gave Anna a one-armed hug. "If anything goes wrong, we'll protect you. And if we get caught, me and Niall take full credit." she stared him down threateningly. "Right?"

"Just me. It was my idea." Niall approached the edge of the cliff and made himself comfortable, sitting with his legs crossed at the edge.
"Dia, mo chuideachadh a 'faicinn tro shùilean dhaoine eile …"
A few moments passed before his eyes changed colour from green to amber and he began to whisper under his breath. "Take Niall and his friends with you to Athens to keep them safe. You will find them at Niall's meditation cave. Leave at once." His voice sounded like the Emperor's, and once he was finished speaking he abruptly stood up. "Get in the cave and act like you're having a random conversation. Father's men are on their way."

(oh oof
translation: God, help me see through the eyes of others)

Anna nodded, her bones shifting quickly and compressing. Small feathers sprouted from her body, and she took the shape of a hummingbird.

Ceana straightened out her face and sat down cross-legged in the cave, leaning against the stone. She watched Anna's hummingbird hop around the cave.

Niall paced outside of the cave anxiously. Had his father fallen for the trick?

Anna flitted around nervously. What if they got caught? What would the do then? She flapped her wings faster, and accidentally smacked straight into a cave wall.
