[030] the right thing to do
Suki and Lottie kept on with the blessings as normal, determined to protect Nat and Travis as they continued to venture out on the hunt for both food and for Javi. Nat couldn't even look at Suki, properly spooked out after their last conversation. But Suki was still determined to bless over her and Travis regardless. Her will was no longer her own.
She had completely given in to the wilderness. And It had something planned for Natalie.
When they left, Suki had decided to stay next to Lottie.
"You can feel him too, can't you? You can feel that Javi's alive?" Suki asks. She couldn't help but go to Lottie for confirmation, seeing as she was the only other person connected to the wilderness on the same level that she was.
"Yes. He's alive, Suki, and he'll come back to us. Don't doubt yourself, Suki," Lottie shakes her head.
"Okay. It's just... I'm scared about being wrong sometimes. Or losing Its favor," Suki confessed.
"You won't. It's pleased with you, Suki. And you've helped us a lot. You've even helped me," Lottie remarked.
Suki smiles. "I have?"
"Of course, never doubt that for a second," Lottie assured.
Suki looks over at Shauna, her smile quickly faltering when she remembered her dream. Lottie follows her gaze before she looks back at Suki, holding onto her hand in assurance.
