Rikae's voice was hoarse from the screaming match with Sally. She was settling down for a nice cup of tea when something outside rustled. Forgetting the terror presented by the wraiths, Rikae found she was more afraid of Rune and his rock of silence.
She peaked out her front window to see if a disgruntled Rune was lurking in the shadows. He wasn't. She returned to her comfy chair. It was probably in her mind. Or hiding in the closet.

The next morning the village found Rikae still in her chair. However she was missing her skin. Her muscle was exposed and her organs were threatening to ooze out. Some already had. The wraiths had decided having her skin was too much of a hassle, so they relieved her of it.
But the left her skin behind as a gift to the village. It was nailed draped over her kitchen table as a semi-tablecloth. Too bad her blood ruined the wood finish.
