Qatrand woke to a light touch on her shoulder. Pigeon-blue eyes opened to find Captain Cyera standing over her. The Army leader kept her voice low, conscious of how her voice could carry to others still sleeping deeper inside.
"First light soon. Your team should move out to the tunnel exit soon if you want to take advantage of the twilight."
Qat nodded and glanced to her side. The 'Whispering Winds scout' sat up in his position already awake and alert. The illusion met her gaze with a curt nod before standing and walking off down the tunnels.
The swordswoman rose quietly, with only a little annoyance. Her wife's real body hadn't been beside her, but the sensation in the fragment held that peculiar warmth of morning greeting that Elua gave off… though it was a little distracted.
'She must be focused on something else. I wish she would have woken me.'
"We'll be ready to go within ten minutes."
