Title: After the end
Challenge/Prompt: #103 Toll
Original Fiction: Shadows in the distance
Characters/Pairings: Caithlynn
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: Mine
Summary: The war has taken its toll.
Author's Notes: The war is over and the Wielders have gone home.
She flinches, every time she hears an unexpected noise. They startle her, still. She flinches, every time again…
Sighing she bents forward, pulling a bucket of water out of the well. Using a cloth the clean her old wounds before bandaging them again.
A sudden noise, she flinches, her hand moves to her waist, ready to take her sword. Before she realizes the war is over and there is no more need to fight. Still, she stays alert, she can’t help it. Every noise, every movement, everything… She notices everything, fears everything. The toll of war… She’ll never be free.
