She never cried infront of me

She was quiet as she listened to his few words, just nodding in agreement, knowing that if she too lived that she would deliver the letters to Ryan and let her know the truth of it all. She didn’t believe that Ryan knew what DaVinci had gone through when she had left him once more, ending their star crossed affairs and going back to being a good clan member. Zana sniffled quietly as she heard DaVinci pull himself from the grass and began to disappear. She knew that there would be no other talk of Ryan, of what had lay between them and what was lost. If there was anything to know she would find it in the bundle of letters she let fall to her lap.

The departing words he left her with caused her to bow her head, knowing that he was right in some way but she was afraid to act on them. Instead she sat upon the bluff a moment longer, nothing but her tears for company as she wished that DaVinci had just left her be. She had thought that she’d had everything under control but once more he’d put things into a spiral and she didn’t know which way was up.

She cast the last tears from her cheeks and moved down into the encampment below to find her tend and light a candle. Her fingers trembling as she opened the letters and began to read.
