Three Line Tales

The original post with the rules and prompt picture are here if you want to join in! BONUS! This actually inspired me to write something based in my Exarch setting I started last year.

Edit: slight tweek to the end.

Night Flight

The Athena had said her goodbyes early that day and told them she had a night flight to catch, a clever lie to her mind, as she would to travel to one of the big cities no one would think of it taking all day to get there.

Now she walked the flats outside town drinking in the twilight as it pooled about her like a veil, letting her human geise fall away as her silver-white wings unfurled from her back and a flame ĺike the setting sun burned in her eyes and danced a pale light across her skin.

The Artemis was already waiting for her, golden-bronze wings glinting in the dying light and they took to the skies to their next target for their search had been fruitless here and her contacts had known nothing.
