Luck? Aria wasn't sure she beleive in luck anymore. Or much of anything for that matter. But the woman she had wanted to talk to when she first got back to Moscow was here in the flesh and apparently rescuing her from any further wrath of Father Stone. Aria could feel his ire at Tehya for pulling her away. But he didn't show any of the as they left the room. Aria could feel the fury in their wake. It was almost deafening.
There were many places with in the halls of the Atharim that they could speak alone, Aria hardly new any of them, but she'd been using one room inparticular for her own research on Ascendancy, it was probably best to take Tehya there, her research was after all what she had wanted to talk to Tehya about anyway.
