[SE] i'm right where you left me

Sohalia

Don't try to wake me up
Even if the sun really does come out tomorrow

Soh didn't want to imagine what she'd have done without Tal and Boreal, who had been there for her ever since she'd first left home. The thought was enough to make her sniffle again, leaning her head against Tal's shoulder and raising a hand to rest it on Boreal's head, absently scratching at the dragon's horns. There was nothing Tal could say to make things worse - anything that anyone could have said, she'd already said to herself a thousand times over. And while his insistence that she was allowed to mess up echoed what others had said, she was still hesitant to believe that particular piece of advise. She was the Heart of Stormbreak, the Luminary. If she couldn't handle her own relationships, what business did she have managing a region?

In any case, she considered Tal's question with a sigh. "I don't know," she admitted. "He promised that we'd stay friends no matter what, but then - things are so complicated, and then he just disappeared, and I never thought he'd do that, so -" She swallowed hard, her voice turning thick with emotion. "What if he doesn't want to be friends anymore?" she managed in a tiny voice, right before tears began to stream down her cheeks in earnest and she turned to bury her face in Tal's neck.

Don't believe anything you say anymore
In the morn, in the morning
