Snippet #1895770

"Well. This is new. Usually you subjects run away from people like me."

The deep toned voice broke Joanne's headache. She realized who she bumped into. One of the guards stationed at the East Watch tower.
I ran that far... I can barely see the main building.
She realized the man she knocked into was still on the ground and looking dizzy, but he was sober enough to speak.
He's not hurting me, like probably every other human here... I should probably go back, before other guards see what I did here.

Without hesitation, she begins to start building her speed, when her path was suddenly obstructed. Another person dashed in a similar direction. Joanne recognizes this subject. It was the one who shouted earlier.

"Hello everybody!" Echoed once more in Joanne's head. Now might be a good time to finally answer her call.

What was her name? Judith? No... Edith? Closer, but not....Eden? Well, it's worth a shot.

"Hey! You, sprinting in front of me! Edith is it? Or Eden?"
