<br/>"More like a stallion .. embarrassingly" Chloe murmoured.<br/><br/>The high pitch noise had appeared again, its lancing strike lay between her ears. With eyes squinted close and a quick shake of her head the sorceress focused again on breathing. That voice, it didn't sound like Sethi, it must be that ear splitting noise in her own mind distorting things.  Chloe opened her eyes and immediately closed them again, just dazzel by a flare of light, painfully bright, it seemed to increase that nonce. What the hell was causing it ? Recall of the day was fractured and vague at best. Dancing ? Sethi disappearing ... Titan, horses, mist.<br/><br/>"I can bearly think, my eyes can't see the light far too bright, your voice just comes over disjointed, warped. It may be that scroll, Titan wanted me to carry it for a reason. If it was so valuable why would he trust me ? He said that its best if a mage does. Perhaps he thought it would protect me from whatever is happening, in which case he was wrong. Perhaps it effects mages and I'm some test rabbit. I just don't know else who to trust anymore."<br/><br/>Chloe intentionally hyper-ventilated then breathed slowly to calm her nerves.<br/><br/>"I will be ok, I just need to be able to breath properly, relax. Someone I trust relaxing near me helps"<br/>
