It passed.
Quickly, slowly, relatively, and slipped through the air, the sandy tears of it pooling at the bottom of the well of the past. And thus it passed into space, white-wash hourglass tears spilling and sobbing into non-existence. The haunted cloyingly empty seconds trickling by, running out, quickly, slowly, relatively. Timing a tick that flared over with the sun, cursing down upon right, wrong, good, bad, nothing, everything. Trembling, entropy laughed away, playing its games, running its systems and counting every droplet of its blood as it coiled down the spires of people and their lives, hopping and branching out as their faded and flared, dying and existing in different measures, like a swinging graph-line of hearts and their own pounding. The father of destruction, change, entropy, crowned in his minutes, drinking wine. Drunk but deadly serious. Passing by as quickly, as slowly and relatively as it might.
In short? Five minutes later.
Chisalu kept rubbing her arm as she pushed the sack insistently into one of her hiding places, gritting her teeth she spun round gracefully. Testing her speed and agility. She stuffed her new acquisition - a small loaf of bread - into her mouth and wrenched off a large chunk, chewing at it greedily. She swallowed without warning, and set off hacking, as the carbohydrate became lodged in her throat, coughing she pulled a very small water-container from her outfit and sipped at it, pounding on her chest and still wheezing slightly.
She stuffed the last of the bread into her mouth, this time making sure to bite it down to more a more edible state, and then swallowed. Taking a thimble-drink from the flagon, she hid it away again, rattling it as she did so, and taking into account how much remained. Then, and only then, did she step forward.
Trusting the little information she had, she raced off in search of this 'Jack' an infinite curiousity on her face, solemn and as serious, and quite simply at play.
ooc: Not sure on Jack's whereabouts, or Sumiyaka's. Sort of short if open post..
