1 The huntress took a drink from her goblet when she finished her tale, and the two revelers seated with her clapped their hands.
2 Instead, she could only look straight ahead, where the huntress was walking purposefully down the path, her green cloak fluttering behind her.
3 Now, looking at the huntress, she thought that if anyone could confirm what she had seen, it would be her.
4 There was something in her voice that sounded the tiniest bit affronted, and Ash looked at the huntress and said quickly, “Oh, I did — I will never forget today.”
5 Zhang is Milva, a human adopted by the dryads of Brokilon Forest who is a fierce and talented huntress.
6 She dreamed that she was perched on a boulder overlooking a twisting path in the heart of the Wood, and below her she saw the huntress walking.
7 Ash took it, drinking deeply, and then came to sit beside the huntress on a fallen log.
8 The inexperienced huntress then left the impala as if she had given up.
经验不足的小雌豹离开黑斑羚,看来是已经放弃。
9 She said, “I am looking for the huntress; do you know where I might find her?”
10 Ash realized that the huntress did not recognize her, for she was wearing the mask still.
11 The huntress nodded to her and said, “I must go. Good day to you.”
12 Afterward, as they walked back through the garden to Kaisa’s horse, the huntress said, “Thank you for the water and the food.”
13 She looked up at Kaisa, and the huntress’s look of bewilderment was changing, slowly, to a small, tentative smile.
14 As mentioned, vampire Juliette is played by Sarah Catherine Hook and while her huntress lover Calliope is portrayed by Imani Lewis.
15 Ash glanced at Kaisa for guidance, but the huntress gave her no indication of what to say.
16 “Eilis was one of our earliest huntresses; King Roland called her to service when she was only eighteen, and many people questioned whether she was ready to lead the Royal Hunt,” the huntress explained.
17 Rook Hill had its own hunt and its own huntress, of course, for hunts had always been led by women.
18 The huntress grinned and asked Ash, “Is that what you’d like?”
19 “You could tell her a story,” the man prompted, looking at the huntress.
20 “Oh, yes,” Ash said eagerly, and then it occurred to her that the huntress might have been making her an offer, and perhaps she — a common household servant — should have turned her down.
