All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
All I ever needed
Liam smiled lazily at Maea’s declaration. Even in the short time they’d known each other, he found that he’d begun to rely on her presence in his life. He was going to be sad indeed whenever she found the rose she was looking for and inevitably left him to return to warmer shores. But for now, this time they had together was enough.
”Mm, true,” he said, pondering the Void. He hadn’t done much so far, but he hoped to get stronger and be able to face down that which would come for them. ”I certainly hope to be able to contribute in that regard. I’m not sure exactly what’s coming, but I want to be ready for it all the same.” And he’d put in the work: training, questing, protecting, as well as he knew how.
Liam stretched his arms up, lacing his fingers behind his head. Warm water dripped from his elbows back into the hot springs. ”When I first moved to the Greatwood, there was a woman named Phoebe in charge. I had offered to help her with security, but when she disappeared, I guess I sort of… lost direction. Now I wish I hadn’t.” That he’d stepped up, given more of himself to protect the place he’d somehow come to call home. He looked at Maea thoughtfully. ”It would be easier with a friend,” he offered. The Greatwood could certainly use someone like her - far more, in his opinion, than Torchline, which was already well-established.

Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary; they can only do harm
