Prompt: Cold Hearth

“The fire's out.”

Deoir turned to the deep, growling voice; her white eyes bright in the dim, candlelit room. He was right, she'd continued working, headless of the cold in the room setting in with the dead hearth. “No matter.”

Felix looked around the room, his masked eyes grazing over her notes. They were written in an cryptic shorthand of her own design. “I suppose our base is no matter to attend to now that you've evacuated your research.”

“On the contrary,” Deoir replied coolly. “I fully intend to be at hand during the invasion.”
