Halfstone: a Tale of the Narathlands
“Kaal was snoring quietly against one of the nearby trees. Aldrick stood with his back to her, staring beyond their lofty trunks into the sleepy, moon-kissed surroundings. He seemed ill at ease. His fists were clenched.
It was admirable that he was here, that he had not abandoned this quest. She liked that he cared, that he had burdened his shoulders with a heaviness he needn’t have taken on. He was one who sought to deal justice where it was deserved. He was one who could be relied upon, truste...d. Being in his presence was calming. In past days, he had looked out for her and aided her equally as much as she had him. Of course, it was no secret that he had certain feelings for her. The funny thing was that it was no longer a well-kept secret that these feelings were shared. She had allowed him close to her, even sought comfort in him. She could not call these feelings familiar, however. Romance was not something a novice aera was advised to dabble in, let alone fall into.
It wasn’t meant to happen, especially with one’s own wielder!MoreLess
