OOC.
There had been this feeling in the pit of his stomach ever since the other day. The meeting with X’yrin had been as pleasant as he had hoped it would be, and the ginger woman was on his mind. But so was the beautiful Adonia, her blue eyes twinkling like stars in his thoughts. It was a difficult thing to think about, but he almost wished he could lie with the both of them in silence forever; with them, the world seemed to much more simple, so much more worth living. New Dawn had once been green and alive and full of hopes and dreams, but now, just as summer turned to fall, it seemed like this feeling was dying. So many terrible things had happened and yet he could not let himself feel.
The ebony king gave out a great sigh and turned away from the sea; he was beginning to come here more often, the sound of the waves was soothing to him, it helped him think, or, drowned out his thoughts, if need be. But he had matters to attend to back at the den; Adonia was there, and he felt like he had to protect her. After his encounter with Shadowfang the other day, he understood what that protection was and could mean; love. But Zalen’s heart wasn’t ready to love again, in fact, he wasn’t sure if love was something he would ever taste again. Titania’s leaving had filled his heart with stone.
He had just made it into the line of the forest when the call rang out; he immediately knew who it was. The lilt in the voice was like Titania’s but… different, and he knew it was Orin’s. Could he face Titania’s mother, just as he had faced her broken father? He nearly didn’t want to answer the call, but he knew it was his duty, so he turned to meet the white lady.
It did not take him long to reach her, but he saw that she was not alone. Curses! Was the world out to get him? Both parents were standing there and he suddenly felt as he had when he had met both of them for the first time; they judged him, they put their daughters safety in his hands and what had he done? Let the girl go.
He slowed and stood up on his hind legs to greet Orin properly with a curt bow, Orin, pleasure to see you again. He said, forcing a smile. He then looked over to Shawchert and immediately knew they were talking about Titania; he sighed, I suppose you are here to learn about Titania?
