Maea
And from the dark
Noting the movement of his hand without knowing how the man kept second guessing himself rather than reach for her, Maea just hummed with a faint nod. There was no end to the things that could and should be done. Too many to spend much time on lamenting the postponing of a beautiful dream, really, despite the temptation of sinking into sullen depression over yet another wrench in her plans. If she had been alone she might have. But Liam's reassurance kept the shadows at bay, wouldn't allow her to surrender to them - if she sighed a bit, that was also the only self pity she permitted herself before starting to think forward again.
"A good weapon does make all the difference," she agreed, thinking of her own enchanted throwing discs. "I could use some upgrading of mine... though it will have to wait. First I will finish this quest so I can think of something other than how much I miss Shii, then I need to find a way to become harder to hit so I stay alive to enjoy their company..." Dying twice had pointed out a glaring flaw in her abilities, one she had every intention of fixing.
Twisting around to float on her belly with arms crossed on the edge of the pool, Maea nestled her chin against them while considering her friend. "Do you need help with anything? I have all the time."

Something new will come on through
and rise again
