scavenging

Kaz isn't the only one scavenging at the moment. A young woman in her late twenties is a short distance away inside the store, against the wall opposite. She slows when another person enters, eyes sharp and trained on the stranger, but continues her own search with occasional, wary glances toward Kaz.

"I had better luck at the next block over," the woman, Cecily Trevelyan, says. Unlike many of the others in Hadriel, she's dressed as if from another time, wearing a longbow strapped across her back, and determinedly ignoring the beeping that's undoubtedly coming from the device at her hip. Nevertheless, she offers the advice with a hesitant smile, placing a few cloth bandages into the pouch she wears.

"Is there anything in particular you're searching for?" Cecily questions. "If it's food, you can eat the fish from the river and lake; they're safe enough. We tried the bears, once, too, but... you know. It's hard to trust anything 'given' to us by Fear."

Or Hope, either, she thinks, but doesn't say. Not everyone agrees on that count.
