Destiney knew she had been pushing herself hard. Needed to push herself. But this was almost to the point of madness. Her body was tired. Everything ached. Between the work for the Flames, work for  the Gods’ Quiver, errands for the Wailers, and her job at the Order… She felt near the point of exhaustion. Sleep had been little. Though thankfully it wasn’t nightmares this time. Those had not bothered her for some time.

She had nearly fallen down the stairs as she came down from getting a drink to take to her room.

“if you don’t rest, you don’t heal.” 

Destiney blinked an looked up to see Rhisi standing near the front door. She gave the seeker a tired smile. There was never any arguing with Rhisi. At least not to Destiney’s point of view. To her Rhisi was like the mother of the company. Fighting a battle against her real mother had always been a losing battle. The same could be said for trying to deal with Rhisi.

“Right… Sorry. I guess the rest of my work can wait for a bit. Maybe you could make me a bit of that chamomile tea? Then I promise to go rest for a while. You always make good tea, Rhisi.” Destiney smiled warmly at the company’s leading lady. A bit of that soothing tea and a good rest. That sounded good actually.
