[Merida had been hearing things all over the place in the last week. The voices of children, the warnings from the relatives of those who had already been drowned out at sea, their fleshy remains the only things found of them. The tales Merida had been told as a lass had helped warn her of this, of fae taking on the voices of children and luring men and women away, of mermaids pulling men further out to sea and drowning them with their siren calls.
She wouldn't be tricked, no matter how much they call for her help.
When Alice mentioned it to her, she only had to look away for a minute or two to what one of the kids wanted to show her before she realizes the other girl is missing. Telling the kids to stay put, Merida runs out the door of the orphanage and Angus is already saddled up, leaving her to only get on him. Alice can't have gone far, but her best bet is finding her by horse.
Besides, Angus is faster than her, even in the armor Diarmuid had given her for Yule.]
Alice!
[Hunter hearing picks up Dodgson's yowls and grunts over the sound of pounding hooves along the sand of the beach, Merida not even waiting to slow Angus down before she jumps off, careful to avoid his wings. She stands there for a second before running over, sword drawn.

No. This world won't take another from me.]
Alice, get away!
