PHONE CALL
❛ HISTORY HAS ITS EYES ON YOU ❜HIGH KING PETER → LADY ATHENA
[ dialling. . . ]
"Hello?"
"Oh my goodness, Athena?"
"Peter? Peter, is that you?"
"Keep talking to me, are you alright?"
"Yes. . . Oh, Peter, I'm fine now."
"Where are you? I'm coming to get you, just tell me, please —"
"Maybe the River Shribble, or perhaps I've reached the Northern Marsh already."
"Alright stay perfectly still, Ed and I will be right there."
"My leg, Peter. You have to bring a medic for my leg, or Lucy maybe, it's gone black."
"Black? What happened?"
"I was knocked out. . . By one of the Ettins in the battle. I — I can't feel it."
"How did you get to the River Shribble? That's so far from where you were stationed."
"My horse, it's smart — got me to fresh water and I've only just managed to turn my phone back on. How long have I been away?"
". . . Three months."
"Oh my god, Peter. I'm so sorry. If I had know —"
"Don't apologise, it's not your fault Athena. If you'd have gone any faster you probably wouldn't still be alive. And I'm so glad you are."
"What do I do?"
"Stay exactly where you are, don't move an inch."
"Okay, I can do that."
"I'll be there soon, I promise."
"I know. . ."
