getting caught in gringotts was not the perfect place, but it was decidedly safer than anywhere else that elisabeth could have thought to be. she’d come to pull some gold from the lestrange vaults, wanting to move investments to another bank so that – should the world go to shit and the totality of the british ministry collapse – she would not be destitute. apparently she had miscalculated and come a little too late before the world decided to end. as the cart had returned with her and the goblin who had escorted her down into the vaults, tylm, another equally surly goblin had informed them that the doors had been sealed and wixen could only leave through the transportation rooms and weren’t allowed to return if they’d made the decision to leave.
elisabeth gracefully left the goblins, murmuring a pleasantry that she had learned in passing, and finding herself in the hall of gringotts. restless, unable to perform any kind of magic ( well, she could, but starting an incident with the goblins while they were providing sanctuary wasn’t something she was particularly willing to do ), and nearly ready to leave to find somewhere safer, she found a modicum of sanctuary in her cousin.
❛ taliesin, ❜ lissa called out gently, crossing to him quickly across the crowded space. relief colored her features, to the point where she did not attempt to keep her face passive. ❛ how long have you been here ? ❜ her voice dropped a little lower. ❛ have you eaten anything ? had water ? ❜
