Chapter 2: Filling the Void
Baelia and Tavi reach Brightvale only to find strange creatures running amok and catch a glimpse of… someone fleeing the scene. Before they get a chance to find out who it is, Tavi is attacked!
Tavi
Everyone all right? Anyone hungry? Thirsty? I’ve got a thermos full of tea if you want it.
Baelia
No thank you…
Nyx
No, I’m okay. I just want to focus on getting where we’re going.
Juni
*Whine*
Tavi
Aw, the little guy’s thirsty. Hold on a second everyone, let me get him some tea.
Juni
Yip!
Tavi
*Pours tea* There you go. Drink up!
Nyx
Huh. He likes it. He’s usually so picky.
Tavi
That’s because it’s one of my special blends. By the way, what’s his name?
Nyx
Juni. Juniper.
Tavi
It’s nice to meet you, Juni.
Juni
Yip yip.
Nyx
Huh… I think he likes you. He must be sicker than I thought.
Tavi
What’s that supposed to mean?
Nyx
Sorry, I didn’t mean it like that. It usually takes him a bit to warm up to strangers. But when he does, he’s just the friendliest little guy. Aren’t you, Juni?
Juni
Yip yip…
Tavi
Oh… well then I’ll take that as a compliment!
