Still sad, still coveting the comfort her companion can give, Wessex hears Amalia but speaks to the dragon - for there is safety in her heart-bonded and what is between the two Grounders is not safe. WESSEX come, you spirits that tend on mortal thoughts unsex me here |

Amalia the shield of safrin
Dropping down cautiously, Amalia comes to stand beside Wessex. Half of her is still terrified of the woman, but the helplessness, the frustration... it pains her to see her once-friend reduced like this. She spent enough time with the illness not to wish it on anyone else. Slowly, carefully, she reaches out, trying to take the Wraith's hand in hers, to look into her eyes and make sense of what is being said.
"What did you see, Wessex?" Amalia murmurs, rubbing her thumb cautiously over the back of Wessex's hand if she'll allow. "The metal... is that what the Ascended need to be well? Will it be a permanent cure?" make peace with your broken pieces the Wraith

"I saw water. And it helped me, which is why..." She trails off as Wessex leans against the support of the pillar, her throat clenching with complicated guilt. Black eyes hunt blue, looking for understanding that in this instance, they are on the same side. "I thought it would help, Wessex. I didn't... I didn't know."
The accusation is a slap in the face for the Shield, in part because it holds some truth. Given the choice between saving the Ascended but making the Voice stronger, or weakening the Voice at the cost of the Ascended, Amalia does not know what she would do. Her feet are on a path she does not fully understand, but has committed to nonetheless, leaving no room for error. It is a path that takes her further and further from the older woman who despite their differences the girl still loves. It is a path that will lead them back together, she is sure, though not to reconcile. "I'll... I'll try to help. I promise." Blinking back tears, Amalia gives Wessex's hand one last squeeze before stepping away. "I'm... I'm going to go now. Please stay safe, Wessex. I... I love you. And I'm sorry." And then she turns to make a swift retreat before her tears have the chance to fall. {fin} make peace with your broken pieces | |
