A few hours later…
Jacob got out of the prison cell and saw Keira hunched over on the floor, vomiting her ass off. He looked back to the cell and her before going over and patting her back.
"Hey, you okay?"
Keira couldn't talk yet so she only nodded and hmm'ed to him.
"What happened to you? Weren't you outside?... Did you perhaps get a glimpse inside?"
Keira shook her head.
"So…"
"I… ahh… I listened."
"You listened?" Jacob tiled his head in confusion, "To what… the screams?"
Keira nodded heavily this time as Jacob deadpanned.
"So you vomited because of the screams… aren't you one of the Valkyries who are assumed to be the toughest women in the kingdom?"
Keira felt even more embarrassed, "I know how it looks… but I was just recruited, I didn't know things would get so nasty this fast."
"Hah" Jacob sighed as he sat beside her, "I understand what you mean, I too have faced nasty stuff when I didn't understand them and couldn't think it would be so fast."
