"There's a few faces I recognize but..." She shook her head. It wasn't like before, when she had people she knew she could trust. The kind of people who'd drive out and collect her when she'd gotten stuck in the forest for a week or more. "I think most people managed to get home."

A bitter bark of laughter escaped, Rose's tongue rolling out to grab the last traces of juice from her lips. "Not sure know-how is really going to be much help." She knew the rules, she supposed. She didn't have to go through the agony that she had when she first got to Atia, the whole coming to terms with their definition of 'worship'.

"You mean other than what they can do?" She lifted her shoulder in a shrug, leaning back as she almost appeared to relax; about as much as Rose ever did anyway.

"You'll see once the head games start." And they would start, she was sure of that. "One day it's business as usual and the next? A rain storm will come and you're jumping the first person you see or... you wake up in bed with somebody you're sure is you're husband or wife only, you've probably barely said two words to them before."
