i just wanted you
"No."
It's a simple word, yet it manages to shatter Morrighan's heart into a million pieces. She's not able to acknowledge that Al'Zahra liked the name she picked out. All her mind can hone in on is "no" and it repeats over and over.
"Not even for you."
She feels like she's been poisoned. Like the air has been sucked out of her lungs out of selfishness and she can't get it back. She let her walls down for her, pushed aside all of her anxiety to make way for trust and what she thought was love.
This isn't love.
Not even when Al'Zahra says that she'd come back. It doesn't help. Morrighan is still hung up on "no, not even for you." She feels worthless, like this entire time she had just been a pawn in some sick joke of a game.
She notices how Al'Zahra is tiptoeing away, like she wants to escape from something. From her.
Morr's fire ignites immediately. It starts at the ground, then curls around her legs, rising higher and higher until it appears her whole body is engulfed in flames. She can feel her energy draining almost immediately, but she doesn't care.
Now she just wants to know the truth.
"Did you ever love me?"
She had been so vulnerable. Oh, how stupid she was.
"Because I loved you."
Stupid, foolish girl.
@"Al'Zahra" welp this escalated quickly
