Safrin
Though Safrin might never get over the Sword's refusal to love her the way she wanted, she had come to accept and appreciate his steadfastness for what it was. He was dependable. Strong. Loyal. Those were qualities hard found these days and though love might have made him more than he could have dreamed, she could accept this for what it was.
Smiling softly at the press of his cheek in hers, like a dog taking a single step forward, Safrin removed her hand and took a breath. "The time for preparation has come and gone, at least when it comes to anything large. Halo will certainly need you, all the more so because you will have to leave her when the fighting begins." Sadly, for they'd never properly had this conversation before, the goddess explains. "The Cordillera...it is not a place we can venture. That is the need for demigods and our chosen."
Taking another breath, Safrin forces her smile to remain in place, potentially for her sake more than his. "So spend your time preparing Halo and making sure that everyone in your life knows truly what they mean to you." Once something along these lines had been a quest for Deimos, and perhaps a difficult one. Now at least Safrin hoped he could do it with ease.
