Thank you to Patricia for commissioning this episode!
So this section ends partway through chapter 7 at "I can manage", for those out there reading along! We get to meet the folks on Alaalu and it's not as foreboding as I was expecting, considering Nita's dream. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop and it's just...not quite happening?
WHY DOES THAT MAKE ME EVEN MORE NERVOUS?
