[Abigail died in the deserted plot and has just been revived.]
Hello? Can anyone hear me? Is anyone out there? It's dark out. I can't see anyone. Please tell me I didn't go through all that just to be alone again.
[There's a moment of Abigail crying.]
I was dead. Am I still dead, is that what this is?
[Being alone feels like hell to her.]

[Seel knew what was out there. He'd been young and stupid once and walked right into a den of monsters. And now when he looked in the mirror he wasn't quite sure he wasn't one of them.]
Who do you think is going to find and help us? No one can stop the rain and the one person I knew who could teleport us is gone. The rain is wet, and uncomfortable, but not necessarily dangerous if we're careful.

The lightning is dangerous. Not being able to see clearly and the slippery streets will be dangerous too. The rain can't last forever, can it? Unless the gods have decided to flood the place and drown us.
[Which she could believe.]

[If only Seel knew just how much this 'little girl' could take care of herself.]
Anything is dangerous. Remember that. But if we go slow and keep our footing we should be okay. Lightning is dangerous. But worrying about it wont keep us from being struck. We can't control that. And no, it can't last forever, but it can last for days and neither of us wants to sleep here.
[looking at her, he asked softly.] I thought Leo could only kill and take a soul if they were tainted. What is it you think you did? [Seel had a very hard time believing she was capable of something that would taint her soul.]

[A murder is the first thought her mind goes to. She hopes this isn't the parent of one of the girls her father killed, though it does seem like the kind of thing she'd expect in Hadriel.]
There's so much we can't control. [Just do it, she tells herself. Like scaling walls or digging up Nicholas Boyle. Get it over with. Get back to Will and Winston, let them comfort her and take the nightmares away.] Yeah, I guess it's better than just waiting here.
Think I did? [She looks at him sadly. She's been through too much to deny it or justify it as she normally would.] I did it. You said it yourself. He wouldn't have been able to kill me if I was innocent.

[It doesn't occur to Seel that she's going to death first, for a reason. He's too wrapped up in his own pain, and doesn't know her terribly well, to know the difference.]
It's up too you. We can wait if you want.
[Personally Seel believed in doing, not waiting for things to get better. They'd get better if you did things yourself and prevailed.]
I don't know everything about Leo's abilities. Could belief of sin taint the soul? I'm not a philosopher. But I don't believe you capable.

You wished your son dead? Why? Did you think that would be loving him?
[Or maybe his son was in pain. As she was. Or thought she was.]
Or was he injured, sick?
[Of course he doesn't think she's capable. None of the girls her father killed suspected she was a lure. It's what made her so dangerous. She decides if they make a run for it, maybe he won't ask about it anymore.]
Let's go.
