Wooo!
Wordcount: 30,003
I am making progress! Go me! I was only up to 27, 411 yesterday, so I made serious headway today. Rawk. AND I added some plot stuff so that I'm not quite so close to the end of my outline as I was. :D Huzzah.
Evran awoke in darkness. He blinked, and realized that he could see his surroundings in the dim light - he was on a cot in a small alcove. Just as he was about to wonder where he was, he abruptly remembered the events of the night before. He cautiously ran his tongue over his teeth and felt the fangs that had grown while he slept. His jaw was faintly sore. He closed his teeth together experimentally and found that they actually fit together nearly as they had before. His fangs fit over his lower teeth quite nicely.The next thing he became aware of was the smell of books. He had often closed his eyes to enjoy the smell of the library, but it was so much bigger and more complex a collection of odors now that it almost overwhelmed him. As he came more fully awake, his mind was being filled with sensory information - the faint sounds beyond the curtain, the scents of each book, the tangy smell of the wood furniture and the ash in the hearth, smoke from the hearth fire, the delicate fragrance of Talianna, the musty odor of the cloth around him, and even the taste of his own mouth flooded through his mind and he struggled to rise above the mass and form coherent thought.
You awake, sir? Shtaa's voice sounded in his head. She was on the pillow next to him.
Yes, he thought back. Everything is different.
