Cera looked up at the sleeping giant on the bier and shrugged. There was enough room next to him to curl up, and his arm was far enough from his body to hold her in place.Cera wedged herself in place and put one hand on the stone chest. She looked around before she closed her eyes and a tear slid down one cheek.Wake me with tears.“Okay, cut that out!” She scowled and wiped her cheek. There was a sensation of amusement in the air.She returned to her nap and focussed on sleeping. If the men who brought her here thought she was going to give this room her love, they were mistaken.The stone under her cheek was surprisingly warm, and it helped her get some much-needed rest. Time didn’t exist in this place. The light was always the same unless the weird beam was in action. She sat on the giant’s bier and played tick-tack-toe with herself and some pebbles she had found against one wall.She was hungry, thirsty and still tired, but as long as she could keep herself entertained, she would be fine.
