"You return." Despite the fact that she spoke to Eve, the servant did not answer. She hadn’t asked a question, after all. "Your studies progress well; I have been apprised." Eve felt her face flush. Bestowing the honor of instruction on her overwhelmed and now she continued to have an interest. "You have a question? Ask." the High One commanded.

Being addressed by the High One?! This is a big deal for Eve! Like meeting the president. Be sure to read all the snippets from the Weekend Writing Warriors

An obvious honor to be addressed by the High One. But now she wants Eve to ask questions. I wonder what she'll ask.
ReplyDeleteAnd here comes the big question. Suspense builds.
ReplyDeleteNo pressure! Lol
ReplyDeleteSo what will she choose to ask?

"The High One"; such a mysterious and ominous character. I'm sure Eve's got a hundred questions swimming around in her head. I wonder which one will surface!
ReplyDeleteSomething tells me she's ready with more than one question.
ReplyDeleteSuch wisdom and restraint in her silence. I hope she chooses her questions well.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure she has many questions. But which one will she ask?
ReplyDeleteI'm really fascinated by how much attention the High One pays to her, suggests some interesting plot possibilities ahead for sure. Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteSo why is the High One so solicitous of her? You've got me wondering.
ReplyDeleteAnd why does she say, you return? Has Eve been there before?
ReplyDeleteShe must be very special for the High One to pay attention to her.
ReplyDeleteThis snippet is loaded with little details! The protocol for speaking to a higher up. That she waits for a question--or an invitation to speak. And the fact that she recognizes it as an honor that she was not only selected for education,k but also that the High One is following her progress. It all has me intrigued!
ReplyDeleteInteresting... keep going! :D
ReplyDeleteFascinating. More, please.
