Grimalkin- Brings Thorne back

In the shadow of a tree, Grimalkin was waiting for us, but she was not alone.

There was another figure standing by her side; it was a slim girl dressed in the same dark garb as the witch assassin. She too wore a skirt that was divided and bound to each thigh to aid movement. There were also straps across her body containing an assortment of blades and a necklace of thumb-bones around her neck. But for the fact that she was smaller – her head level with Grimalkin’s shoulder – they could have been twins. Both looked as if they did not belong to our world. They glowed slightly in the darkness and, to my eyes, looked more demon than human.

‘This is Thorne,’ said Grimalkin.
