This wasn't where she had intended to go. Avalon had been what had been on her mind after she had left Geralt and Yennefer in their haven together. Yet this wasn't Avalon. This was somewhere unrecognizable. Everything around her was unfamiliar and she felt a little bit at a loss. She walked through the area, tall sheaves of grass blew in the warm wind and the sky was a pale expanse above them. No. She had never been here and this certainly wasn't the Continent either. She didn't like the feeling of not having control given how many times it had been ripped from her. She liked being in charge of herself, her surroundings, the powers that imbued her.

Instinctively her hand lowered to the sword at her hip, Swallow, as she walked. Her boots making a loud noise as they crushed grass underneath them. "Is someone out here?" She questioned, pulling the blade partially free but not drawing it entirely. She wanted to be on guard not in complete offensive posture. "I'd rather not attack anyone." She called it confidently, but hyperaware of her surroundings. She was fully prepared to draw her sword as she walked until she saw a figure ahead. All of her defensiveness and teachings of being on guard faded. Someone could be hurt! She couldn't allow and she supposed that she ought to blame Geralt, the spirit of her grandmother, even Yennefer for her sensitivity to those who might be in need. Always a wildcat unless someone needed her. "Hey! I see you! Do you know where we are?" She called as she broke into a run. "Do you need help?" - @inabcck

"You're right." She didn't know that, actually. Sometimes her growing up in a palace was hindering, she knew that. Although she wasn't going to say that out loud. "We can go and look for some?" She suggested as she started on plucking grass from her hair, and tossing them down onto the ground.

Ciri tried at a smile for the other woman, wincing at the still painful feeling left behind from the gash running down the left side of her face. "I'm Ciri. Kerrigan...that's a lovely name."

Oh good. With both of them having some semblance of survival skills then they weren't going to die if they stuck together. Though the real question was if they would trust one another. Kerrigan nodded her head in the affirmative. "I know enough to not die for a bit." She tugged at one of the tall blades of grass pulling it from the ground a bit of a nervous habit. It was also a way of marking where she had been if she could find this spot again. Twisting the piece of grass into a knot and setting it to hang off of some of it's former neighbors.

"I at least know that there should be water nearby feeding the grass." Normally to find the water she would reach out with her magic to try and feel it, but she was tapped from the jump. She eyed the other woman silently for a moment before deciding they may as well stick together. "I'm Kerrigan by the way. And you are?"
