Shadow Slave
Chapter 151
Some time later, they were standing in front of a makeshift cabin. Just like Changing Star's patchwork dwelling, the cabin was constructed out of mismatched stone blocks that had been scavenged from the ruins. It was reinforced with monster hides here and there and seemed to be built slightly better than the rest of the hovels in the outer settlement.
There was a large bestial skull hung above the door, its thick forehead split apart by a devastating strike of some sharp weapon.
Glancing at the skull, Nephis took a step forward and knocked on the door. However, no response followed.
Sunny sighed.
"Maybe she's not home."
Instead of an answer, Changing Star frowned and banged on the door with her first. The first strike was somewhat gentle, but by the last, the bestial skull was on the verge of flying off the wall.
A sleepy and irritated voice sounded from the inside:
"I swear to gods, whoever you are, you'd better be a Nightmare Creature!"
A few moments later, Sunny heard the sound of footsteps approaching the door. Before it opened, though, Nephis suddenly spoke:
"Sunny, turn away."
Hearing a strange urgency in her voice, he scowled and did as she had asked.
"Your shadow, too."
'What is going on? Are we expecting trouble?'
As he was staring away from the cabin, the creaking of wood informed him that the door was flung open.
"Who the hell is… oh. It's you."
He swore he could hear Neph's teeth grinding against each other. A few seconds later, Changing Star spoke, her tone especially flat:
"...Put on a Memory, Effie. Please."
'Wait… what?'
Why would she… oh…
Oh!
When he was finally allowed to turn back, the last glimmers of ethereal light were yet to disappear from the fabric of Effie's provocatively short chiton. She wasn't wearing anything underneath, either.
"Here. Better?"
