Her hand flew up to her mouth to keep from crying out, and she found herself fumbling backwards and shakily hitting the bed, sitting down haphazardly as she tried to calm herself. Her head hurt! She wasn't sure if this exchange had hurt Koln at all (and she hoped it didn't) but this had been mental torture for her! Was this how Koln was existing every moment of every night, now? How much turmoil and confusion could one man go through! No wonder he seemed insane!Upset and confused, Clover buried her eyes in her palms. The images were still there. As strange as they were, she struggled to make sense of them and not let them get away. She sensed Ruby's eyes on her head as she sat in silence, and she hoped that no one would break her concentration as she collected herself.Clover didn't even know what Koln was doing at the moment. Was he looking at her? Was he ok? She didn't dare look at him. She would never see him the same way again.She began shakily, reliving the events one more time out-loud for her friends to hear. "Koln. You were young. I think a very young priest. In training? But then... I think you might have stabbed someone. And then... no. Maybe it wasn't you..." She shook her head, the memories already floating away. She had to hurry!"Thaddeus! I think that you were sent here to kill him! From France, maybe? They sent you here. And you came here and scouted out the town. You found a farm. Animals. Everywhere. Dead. Throats slashed. A farm. Where was it? But you definitely came here for Thaddeus! You were definitely sent! I..."Her voice trailed off, the last spurts of images coming to her mind. Koln had stabbed someone. Yes, that had definitely happened. And... a duck?She heaved a sigh of relief, looking up towards Koln with deep remorse in her eyes. If what she saw had been true, Koln had known of Thaddeus. And, she remembered, Prestor had been there and had been watching Koln. She dropped her head, "Prestor was scouting you out, Koln. I saw him there. Maybe... he was after you all along? Why else would he have been in the 24th Diocese that night? What if...?" She was grasping at straws, feeling so drained by the effort of recalling what she had seen that she was amazed, "What if he knew you were after Thaddeus? What if that's why he tracked you down? Do you think it was intentional? Thaddeus was Prestor's enemy, too. What if... that's how he thought he could help you defeat him?"She shrugged, immediately feeling ridiculous for even suggesting it.</blockquote>
