| Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *sprawls out on the ground as if she never left* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *gently taps the door* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *tries a little louder this time* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *tries the door not hearing anything* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *hears the knocking though doesn't move* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *walks in and quietly looks about* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: Aislinn Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *speaks her name in his normal tone* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *arches a brow slightly at the smell in the air* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *walks in looking for her* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Yes, Grandfather.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *responds in the same low tone, easily able to hear* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *finally makes his way up looking slightly concerned* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *stares at the sky blankly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: are you alright love Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks her over* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *walks over and sits down next to her* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *bares several wounds, one in the leg though most at her stomach and one over her* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *chest where it would have pierced the heart if it wasn't at the precise angle* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *the chest one is exposed as if she had done so* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *notices them and has a look of concern on his face* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *though more of curiosity* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: so you want to tell me how this happend Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *reaches over to make sure she is ok* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *Grumbles* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *seems to be breathing well enough though is still bleeding.. its anyones guess as to* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *how long she has had them* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *reaches into his bag as he gives her a look and begins to slowly and precisly clean* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *and bandage the wounds* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i'll say it again Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *speaks in a slightly more agitated tone* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: what happened? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *speaks to her as he works to ensure he doesnt miss a spot that needs mending* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks her in the eyes seeing she hasnt botherd to answer him as of yet and tries to* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *get an idea of what happened* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: did someone do this to you? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *shakes his head after a moment* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: this i dont like... Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *speaks outloud though to himself* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I did it myself.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods after a moment and goes back to mending the wounds* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i can feel that you are deeply troubled. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i would still like to know why you would do such a thing to yourself dear Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Because I deserved it Aislinn Ua Ruairc: And Kieran wouldn't do it Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *asks softly, though angered, but not wanting to add to her despair* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *arches his brow* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you deserved this? why do i not believe you Aislinn? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks into her eyes as he asks* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *continued to stare blankly at the sky, her eyes bloodshot as if she had cried though n* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *thinks quietly for a moment before continueing* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *no tears would be seen* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I can feel your torment. but what you are doing to deal with it isnt going to help you Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Because I should have received much worse.. but I cannot bring myself to let Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Father down.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: of all the things I tought you through the years the most important thing you should Gabriel Ua Ruairc: never forget is your strength Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *shakes his head* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I have my strength.. though matters of the heart skip that part Gabriel Ua Ruairc: not just your bodies dear, the strength of your mind is just as important Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *tries to comfort her as he finishes mending the wound on her chest* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I'd have my strength if any matter arose that was not like this... Gabriel Ua Ruairc: do you wish to tell me about it? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i feel your thoughts, your mind is a mix of confusion and fear at the moment Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *moves on to mend the remaining wounds the whole time trying to sooth and calm her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *thoughts* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I... don't know.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods quietly letting her continue at her own pace* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: it is alright dear. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I am here for you if you need to unburdon your mind Aislinn Ua Ruairc: If I say anything.. it mustn't be repeated.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: my ears are always open to you Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *smiles at her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: To anyone.. not even Dy or Threave Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: it is that serious? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks down at her* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: It wouldn't be if I wasn't the Queen Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: too bad you cant leave all this and come back to the forest with me Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I'd love to.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you know of its link to us, and us to it Gabriel Ua Ruairc: would be the best for you I think Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but what does this old man know Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *smiles at her trying to lift her spirits* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: know this. anything you speak to me stays with me to my grave Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you know I can hold my tongue, even to kin Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but I wont force you to speak it if your heart tells you otherwise Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Some time ago after I had finished my training.. I heard that Threave was to be Aislinn Ua Ruairc: wed.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *listens quietly to her as he finishes the mending of the rest of the wounds* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: So I came to the city to watch.. it was my first time I came into the city since I Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *had left with you.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *slowly leans back on his hands resting a bit as he continues to listen* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I didn't expect to stay however I did to spend some time with family while I was Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *here before setting out again to continue on my path Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *listens quietly* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I ended up staying roughly three weeks.. maybe more, maybe less.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: And in that time, I met with a certain individual who for his sake will remain Aislinn Ua Ruairc: nameless Gabriel Ua Ruairc: by the sound of that I am presuming it was not Kieran? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: No.. this was before I even knew Kieran existed Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods and continues to listen to her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: yeah i know. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: We grew fairly close, suprisingly so, since we were from two totally different worlds Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *as listening his eyes shift from her to the sky* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Nothing happened between us but its simply one of those things you just know and Aislinn Ua Ruairc: feel.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i believe i know of what you speak Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: A problem arose where many guards, Pard and various others were called to aide Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Since I was in the city, I had to go.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: We had our rather heartfelt unspoken parting and I lef the city Gabriel Ua Ruairc: this feeling you speak of cannot be described by words even if given to you by Gabriel Ua Ruairc: Athlendyr himself Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *nods slowly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods to her and places his hand around her shoulder* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I was gone a horridly long four weeks.. and any effort I made to send missive to him Aislinn Ua Ruairc: to tell him how things were.. we never got a true moments rest Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *grins to himself as she speaks almost knowing her next words* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: And the single solitary message I got written out to get to him, never made it.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: It would seem that the fates were not with the two of you Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Or so I found out.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Once things were settled and we could return to the city.. the first thing I did was Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Seek him out.. big suprise Gabriel Ua Ruairc: nowhere to be found? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Oh I found him alright.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: ahh Aislinn Ua Ruairc: With someone else.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: with another Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods closing his eyes* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Crushed, hurt.. I don't even know how to explain the things I felt though I didn't Aislinn Ua Ruairc: take it out on him or her.. it wasn't his fault. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you had nothing binding the two of you at that time Gabriel Ua Ruairc: other then your feelings, correct? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Indeed Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I did leave the city again though Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Though being apart from him seemed to ache more than seeing him with another Aislinn Ua Ruairc: So I returned again.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods solemly* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Resumed a friendship, joined his group of allies and stood at his side as a guardian Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Refused to talk or acknowledge the woman.. but I brought her no ill will Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I remained with him in this manner until the day my brother got crowned King Aislinn Ua Ruairc: My duties shifted to ensuring he as King and brother remained well protected Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *glances back over at her every now and then shifting his gaze only from her to the* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *sky as he listens* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Not long after, the woman he was with passes away.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Opportune moment to step in, right? No.. I couldn't do it.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *grins a bit at her comment* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: so it would seem I know Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I didn't want to take advantage of his wounded heart.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: He was angry, depressed.. I watched him with several other women after that Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Using them like they were possessions to be thrown away when done with.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I didn't want to be that Gabriel Ua Ruairc: a wise decision my dear Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I stopped talking to him for a long time after that.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I still felt the same about him regardless.. but I thought it was time that I could try Aislinn Ua Ruairc: to move on.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: your heart would not allow you to Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Not at first.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: But this is when Kieran comes along with Dy's encouragement Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks over at her and sits up from his resting position to cross his legs* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: ahh Gabriel Ua Ruairc: good ol Dy with her all knowing wisdom Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *chuckles a bit* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: We got along like a glove fits on ones hand.. perfectly matched with the same Aislinn Ua Ruairc: ambitions and way of life.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Almost too perfect.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I quickly fell for him and vice versa and I thought us to be partners for life.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: That's when I start seeing the other one around the city again.. settled down with Aislinn Ua Ruairc: some other girl that he seemed fairly devoted to.. they even had a child together Gabriel Ua Ruairc: oh? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: A complete turn around to return to how he once was.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *arches a brow and looks over* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: So we resumed our friendship whre it left off with a bit of a rocky start Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Everything was going great.. me and Kieran were often outside the city tending to Aislinn Ua Ruairc: duties out there though I'd come in for supplies now and then just like any other time Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Except one.. when I found him sitting in the place we met.. the place where it all Aislinn Ua Ruairc: started Gabriel Ua Ruairc: brought everything back didnt it Aislinn Ua Ruairc: It did.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: all you thought you had done so well to forget Aislinn Ua Ruairc: He told me openly everything he ever felt in as best of detail as he could give Aislinn Ua Ruairc: and I couldn't help but to respond the same Gabriel Ua Ruairc: let me ask you something Aislinn Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *doesnt mean to interupt her but cannot resist* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *nods, eyes closing as she thinks back on it* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: our college of paths, we all seek it out to find our own Gabriel Ua Ruairc: and in doing so set out to fullfil it as it were Gabriel Ua Ruairc: know this. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks over at her as he speaks* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: nothing is set in stone Gabriel Ua Ruairc: our fates our not known even to us. though we do our best to be the master of them Gabriel Ua Ruairc: we cannot change what has been laid out for us by Athlendyr Gabriel Ua Ruairc: this all reminds me of something I never told any of you Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *pauses a moment thinking about it* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: there was a time when I myself went through something similar to what you are now Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I was a young man then. there was another... Gabriel Ua Ruairc: other then your Grandmother. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I met her years before your Grandmother and fell madly in love with her Gabriel Ua Ruairc: we were inseperable. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *pauses briefly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but something just like what you are telling me happend Gabriel Ua Ruairc: she had a past I was not aware of, a previous love whos she went back to, leaving me Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I was devasted of course but moved on and made my way into the forests for solitude Gabriel Ua Ruairc: not long after this is when I met your Grandmother Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks over slowly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: so you see, everything, no matter how trivial happens for a reason Gabriel Ua Ruairc: if this other man had not come back into her life I never would have met your Gabriel Ua Ruairc: Grandmother, and none of you would be here now. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *smiles slightly at her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: none of this would matter had I not been crushed myself all those years ago Gabriel Ua Ruairc: now knowing this. you can see that your worry and fear are all for not. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: this will work out for the best as it is meant to. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: But it is.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: precisely Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I did this to myself because I betrayed him.. I acted upon something I shouldn't have Gabriel Ua Ruairc: though it may not seem it with you being with Kieran Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *shakes his head* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: no dear, you didnt betray him. you followed your heart Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I thought my heart was with him! Gabriel Ua Ruairc: and if that is betrayal then being with him was never meant to be. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods slowly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I know it is very confusing in that matter. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you love Kieran, but this other man seems to hold your heart tighter then he could Gabriel Ua Ruairc: hope to, am I right? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *growls lowly* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Damnit I thought I had pushed all that away.. moved on with life... Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *reaches over and pats her lightly on the back knowing her frustration* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: aye dear, I know it is a struggle Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I feel utterly miserable in knowing that I have hurt Kieran this way.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *wraps his arm around her should and pulls her in for a hug trying to sooth her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: becouse you do love him Gabriel Ua Ruairc: and it does seem as betrayal Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but as you said. this other man.. he is the one you truely cannot escape Gabriel Ua Ruairc: and in that you should see the path that has been set out Gabriel Ua Ruairc: it may not seem it but being with Kieran seems the wrong place for you Gabriel Ua Ruairc: not knowing this other man you speak of and just having what you tell me to judge Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I can feel your pull to him. Your feeling for him seems stronger even to me Gabriel Ua Ruairc: it is sad for Kieran indeed. He is a nice lad Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but in time all will work itself out Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I don't want to lose him.. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: But I am sure I already have Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: what does your heart tell you in this? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *looks over at her* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I wish I knew.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *smiles* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: then what of your head, what does it say to do? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: It tells me that I am a fool to have done this to Kieran.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods slowly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: it hurts, what you have done I know it does Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but if what you tell me of this other man is true and what I am feeling from you is Gabriel Ua Ruairc: more then just confusion I would say you already know what you must do Gabriel Ua Ruairc: even if it isnt the easiest thing to do Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I wish it were that easy.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: this other man, there is something more there then with Kieran is there not? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I do not think Kieran is as forgiving and understanding in such matters as you are Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *grins slightly* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: And I do not blame him Gabriel Ua Ruairc: well who says I was as forgiving when the same happened to me? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *gives her a look* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Nothing.. though I suspect that the woman and her other are or did remain living Gabriel Ua Ruairc: You are my Granddaugher, I want what is best for you no matter what Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods quietly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: though it still wasnt pretty Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I am a man afterall. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: What did you do? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: we fought, I was rash and very quick tempered then Gabriel Ua Ruairc: what I did not see at the time and didnt for some time after was that no matter Gabriel Ua Ruairc: what I did, I could not change her mind Gabriel Ua Ruairc: she loved him more then me and was meant to be with him Gabriel Ua Ruairc: as a young man this is not something that can explain away loosing one you love Gabriel Ua Ruairc: so I lashed out and we clashed blades. In the end all that seemed to accomplish was Gabriel Ua Ruairc: tears from her, and futility between the two of us since we were equally skilled Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *shrugs slightly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but in time I grew to learn that it wasnt ment for her and myself to be Gabriel Ua Ruairc: espescially after meeting your Grandmother Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *smiles* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: My life changed forever on that day and I have never looked back on what could Gabriel Ua Ruairc: have been Gabriel Ua Ruairc: now knowing this, something none of your siblings know, does it seem to enlighten you any? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I don't know what I would do if I lost either one of them if the clash of blades went bad. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: aye. we both were injured from it but as I said, both were equally skilled so luckily Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I know his brothers are also protective of him and vice versa.. I fear what it could Aislinn Ua Ruairc: come to.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: we werent able to mortally wound one another Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *shakes his head* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I wont let anything happen to you Aislinn Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you know you always have me looking over you Aislinn Ua Ruairc: It isn't me I am worried about Gabriel Ua Ruairc: that is becouse your heart wont let you. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: but I will Gabriel Ua Ruairc: You are more important to me then either of them. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I do not think Kieran will bring harm to me... Aislinn Ua Ruairc: But he did tell me he would go after him.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Since I asked him to do it to me and he wouldn't Aislinn Ua Ruairc: So I did Gabriel Ua Ruairc: impetuous youth Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *smiles slightly to himself* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: something I still wish you had not done Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *shakes his head a bit looking at her* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I will survive Aislinn Ua Ruairc: As always.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: I know you will. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: These unfortunately arent as bad as I had hoped they would be Gabriel Ua Ruairc: becouse you have me here to kick you in the ass if you think otherwise Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *grins at her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *gives her a squeeze still having his arm wrapped around her shoulder* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: so. do you want my advice? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Your attempts at lightening my mood are duely noted.. but I don't think it works Gabriel Ua Ruairc: oh I know. Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Any would be nice right now.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: all it seems to do is give you more questions then answeres Gabriel Ua Ruairc: Leave them both be Gabriel Ua Ruairc: infact leave alltogether. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you need time to sort through this on your own not having the weights of this Gabriel Ua Ruairc: kingdom on your head as well Gabriel Ua Ruairc: is there not someone who can stand in for you? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Will you come with? To remind me of a time in my life before this pain.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: Leave word for both men that you are leaving. and upon your return will make a Gabriel Ua Ruairc: clear choice that is final Gabriel Ua Ruairc: of course I will Gabriel Ua Ruairc: Why wouldnt I? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I will leave notice for Kieran.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: not the other? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I do not need to leave notice for him.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: oh, and why is that? Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *asks though he already seems to know the answer* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Because he already knows Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you do have someone who can fill your shoes here do you not? Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *groans, wincing as a shudder runs through her as she strains to stand* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *helps her to her feet not standing himself yet* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *stands though slightly hunched over a bit until finally straitening out quite* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *unpleasantly* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *once she up to her feet he stands himself ready to catch her if need be* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I should... see if i have a change of clothes.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: While this corset outlines the punctures quite well, it is not very comfortable Gabriel Ua Ruairc: you might want to get some rest to young lady Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *gives her the grumpy old man look* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I will rest when we get away from here.. Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods but still wishes she would rest some before then* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I have enough motivation to survive the trip Gabriel Ua Ruairc: well that is good to know Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *sneers a bit before turning to move for the steps and slowly making her way down* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *holds out his arm to her for support* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *helps her down the steps* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i will wait downstairs Aislinn Ua Ruairc: Alright Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *walks out shaking his head a bit knowing how troubling this is for her* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *and wishing there was more he could do to help* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *opens the armoire and nods a bit pleased that she took the time to put clothes in it* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *takes a seat on one of the piles of hides and rests his head back on the wall* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *lifts the crown tiara off her head and sets it down on the table* You see: Crescent Moon Tiara [MP] Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *closes his eyes while he thinks about the whole situation* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *blows out the candles* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *sees her come down and slowly rises to his feet* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *reaches into the drawer to pull out a paper and ink* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *sets it on the table and writes* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: -I cannot coney to you how truely sorry I am for the pain I have caused you, nor do Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *waits quietly a moment then decides it would be better for him to step outside so she* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *has privacy* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: i will be outside Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *leans back against the wall* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I expect forgiveness. My heart is with you always. I can only hope in my absence Aislinn Ua Ruairc: that you have had time to mend and will reconsider your 'promise' to me in regards to Aislinn Ua Ruairc: the other. Farewell for now. -Aislinn Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *sets it on the table and wipes her face from the tears that hve dripped upon it* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *moves to the door and looks back to it briefly before lowering her eyes and stepping* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *out the door* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *glances back noticing her there* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: I am ready to go Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *nods to him with a close of her eyes then an open to tell him to follow* Gabriel Ua Ruairc: *nods understanding* Aislinn Ua Ruairc: *before slipping into the darkness that soon fell upon the lands* |
