Maea
And time it waits for no one
It heals them when you die
It heals them when you die
She could indeed understand that, and Maea found it rather humbling to realize that to some, her homeland wasn't the claustrophobic prison she had come to view it as. "Sorry if I sound negative," she said, head bowed over the bandages. "There are definitely worse places to be..." Even if she couldn't think of any at the moment. "I just hope there won't ever be another barrier."
There had certainly been work done, in her absence. Some of it sounded quite recent, and Maea nodded when the Spire was mentioned. The looming tower had always been a center point in the region, an inescapable reminder of the prison they were in. A death omen to anyone who strayed too close - until a few years ago.
"Yes, I agree. It's a lot of space... What would you like to do with it? I'll admit I still find it rather... ominous. Eerie. It takes some getting used to, that it's not forbidden ground anymore." A shoulder quirked as if the memories was something she might simply shrug off - as if the changes weren't kicking up dust and forcing her to see everything from new perspectives so quickly it was dizzying.

And soon you are forgotten
A whisper within a sigh
A whisper within a sigh
