Judith came to search, but not to worry. She sat with Repede on the edge of Zaude's vast roof, legs dangling over the edge, looking calmly out over a seemingly-unending ocean.

Zaude was an interesting place.

Yuri wasn't the kind of man who died without a whimper. He would go out in a great bang or not at all, living forever, immortal. She had every expectation that he would find them when he was ready.

And if she looked up at the sky at night and her eyes sought out the brightest star, it was only out of long habit.

I really like thinking about the time period of after Zaude and before Yuri coming back. I've never seen a piece that explores this with Judith and I really liked it. You captured the calm and almost whimsical nature she often projects as well as her determination and loyalty in waiting for her friend to come back into her life when he could.

That's it exactly, the game really kind of glossed over those -- days? weeks? -- and I love thinking about what they might've been like for everyone. I think Judith's non-reunion with Yuri was really sweet, so it was fun to be able to explore what was behind it.

Awwww. So quiet and so intense, all at the same time. Lovely. ♥

♥ Well, that about describes Judith's emotional reactions in general, so. Win.
