Somehow, as they walked down the street, she’d lost herself in the past. The memories bounced around within her skull and for a moment, she forgot where she was. All that she could see was the crystalline perfection of Cirrus. The colors were so vivid, so pure. Why had she left? Why had the Brothers sent her here? Cassilyn might not have remembered much but she did remember how happy she’d been there. But, the more she tried to recover the memory, the further it floated, just out of her reach. With grasping fingers, her conscious screamed in frustration as she reached eagerly for her past and suddenly, a wall was up and she was thrown from her own mind. The alabaster woman was back on the street with Lasarian by her side. She’d come too just soon enough to hear the words that poured from his silver lips. A rebirth? At that revelation, the pain in her chest suddenly doubled and she instantly pushed the thought from her head. She couldn’t and wouldn’t face that hurt today. At his recollection of his old home, her ears swivelled and she painted a detailed portrait in her mind’s eye. It sounded absolutely magical and she envied him for a moment. The lady had always wanted to be so immersed in nature, there was nothing more peaceful. She couldn’t comprehend a land where the flora and fauna were so actively conscious and alive but she’d read about plenty of these worlds in fiction. “That sounds wonderful Lasairian,” Cassilyn spoke, her words dripping with awe. “Did you enjoy it there?” she asked as they neared the end of the street where the night seemed to stretch on forever before them. “Perhaps we should begin our journey?” the lady asked as she lifted her wings gently, the feathers swayed in a soft breeze. She knew that the darkness beyond the markets was filled with winter’s cold touch and she shivered in recollection of her adventure so far. Her pale eyes found their way to her new friend’s face and the smile that spread across her maw was filled with cheer. “I’m glad I won’t be finishing this journey on my own,” she explained eagerly. OOC: I figured we could finish this one up and create another in the Dawn Court? Tag: @Lasairian |
