Nathrangking Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 6 hours ago, Scarletfox said: Fox quivered, but used all of her strength to lock onto father's eyes. On the one hand, Fox wanted the terror to be gone eternally, yet on the other hand, she could live in this warm moment forever. I gather my courage and strength. To run from fear will lead us to disaster. It will make us prisoners of the most trapped sort. I take a deep breath and allow the complexity of my love, fear, and concern flow through. "We cannot stop feeling fear. I used to speak of this as a theory. I am afraid daughter. For the first time I am truly afraid. I cannot simply take your fear away. When you are ready to talk I am here." "As am I, Fox. As am I." Circestran stands to the side keeping watch, but extending her awareness all around her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The anger and the fear did not go away, but somehow, it seemed just a little bit less important. Fox remembered feeling this way, once before.

"There is so much that I would tell you if I just knew how. I have seen so much. I had a nightmare daughter. This is why I was crying as I was. It was a terrible thing. It taunted me for my mortality. I was mocked for being unable to save Circestran. It forced me to watch both of you suffer while I could not stop it. I did not fear for my self. I feared that it would be a prophecy of doom for us all. However, it won't be. It cannot be." All of my troubles seem to matter far less now. They are trivial. "Nath." Her whisper fills the air. She longs to go to him, but she stays where she is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I wish that I could give you worlds. Once I would have been able to. Now all I can truly give you is myself. I will be with you always."

"Okay, everyone should probably head to bed. I'm going to go requisition a tent for Martin and me, good night!" Herate smiled and hugged him gently before walking behind the command tent to check on Fox and Nath. After that, she'd go to bed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mist Posted November 8, 2020 Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) T is heading to a tent, but decides to check on everyone. She discovers Ember's absence and starts looking around. Ember sits on a log in the woods, his elbows on his legs, his palms to his face. A fire flickers nearby, small enough not to be seen. What can I do?
