[ATBASH CIPHER.]

ATBASH CIPHER

tired eyes, barely open ,
crippled by a promise broken !

Tanglewood was the only group left that Atbash was somewhat familiar with, what with Snowbound being completely disbanded and lost to time. There was The Typhoon, but the savannah didn't want to join the ocean-dwelling group mostly because she believed Goldenluxury still hated her - and perhaps if Goldie hadn't lost her memories, it would still be the case. Atbash felt bad for Goldenluxury hating her for what she believed was a simple mistake and she hated the look the former Captain gave her - but that was fortunately in the past. Goldenluxury didn't remember anything she had done during her leadership in Snowbound, but by the time Atbash learned this, she had earned a place within Tanglewood. Ironically, the only reason she had been here was to be around Aurum, someone Vigenere had cared for and respected. It was her only tie to her then-deceased brother - but he was back within Tanglewood and now, finally, Atbash felt at home here. But Vigenere wasn't the only reason she felt home here; there was Merlin, even if the woman was captured in the Coalition right now.

"Hey there." Atbash called out to Heathcliff as she approached him, her ears pricked and head tilted. "You're by Tanglewood, are you just passing by?" She unfortunately had no idea that Heathcliff had been apart of Tanglewood before and therefore didn't recognize him, but she did think it was strange how he just appeared to be staring off into their territory - almost seeming like he was lost in thought. But maybe that was just Atbash being a little bit too suspicious of a stranger.
