I had to predate it...hope you don't mind!
Element looked out at the beautiful city of Halifax where he'd made his home not even two months before. The sun was lingering above the city, shining down on the glass and concrete buildings that seemed to make the entire city sparkle with life. Of course, there was few life in the sea of gray and blue - a few black crows were perched on the tops of buildings, and several mice and squirrels scuttled about, but other than that, the scene was quiet. Peaceful. Completely empty, save for Element and the vines that wound around and around the city.
He sighed in contentment. It was a good feeling - after he traveled around, to simply rest for a bit. There wasn't anything he had to do in a hurry - of course not. There wasn't anything he had to do but sleep, hunt, and of course read all those books in the Library. But even that could come in time.
A crow called in the distance: 'kee-kee-kee-kaaaaw! kaaaww!' It repeated the same thing over and over, and somewhere else, a companion of the crow called out as well. It was good, to see life moving on as Element himself did. It wasn't that the memory of Flower faded; oh, no. It was still there. But instead, when he looked upon her image in his mind, he saw an image of peace. No pain seared his heart. Not today.
