Description
A scene that evolved into being during the fourth draft of my novel. Fourth? I think it's fourth.

Here's a hint, chickies: It's generally a bad idea to run away when you're in a strange city in a strange country in a strange continent, when it's getting dark, when it looks like rain and you don't even have a coat, when you have nowhere to go and no idea where you are.

Because then, like poor Callie here, you end up taking shelter in the entrance to a whorehouse and vaguely confusing the madam.

Yes, this is in fact fantasy, though it may not be evident from this scene.

Yes, her eyes are an odd shade of green. They're supposed to be. It's a plot element.
