Daesat had retired; she was living the simple civilian life with more money than most people ever made in their life. She’d left Xenosa to take care of her old life, and the young Orderite had no idea where to begin. She felt lost in a vast sea and she’d found herself wondering around the Forests of Aurinead without aim until she settled at the trunk of a tree and stared out as if in a daze. What the hell was she going to do? She didn’t want this for herself anymore, but the idea of becoming a civilian was also an unwelcomed one. She hadn’t spotted anyone else in the forest, but for good measures she’d turned off the main path to find her tree trunk. She could barely make out the sun from her sitting position, but it she had to guess it was midday by now after all the trekking she’d done.
