Tryin' to wash away all the blood I've spilt
This lust is a burden that we both share

"Perhaps we can check in with the Fae," Liam suggested. "It may be that they don't have a strong opinion on how we go about setting things up, so long as their culture is respected by any who join us." That would be important, he realized: ensuring that their citizens understood that the forest and its Fae inhabitants were a vital part of the region, and therefore deserving of respect and understanding. As for an office space, Liam's gaze followed Maea's gesture, noting the location of the forked branches and beginning to envision what a new building might look like - and what building it might entail. "Seems doable," he agreed with a smile. "I'm with you on wanting a separate space - but I like the idea of it being close by."
The pressure of taking the lead on diplomatic matters was something that he would bear, if it meant taking some of the burden from Maea. He could understand how the actions of one's past could have consequences on one's future, and he certainly didn't want her to have to navigate that without assistance. Someday, he was sure that they would need to find a way to mend any bridges that had been unintentionally burned, but for now, perhaps they could get away with letting him be the outward face of their leadership team.
Maea leaned in to press a soft kiss to his lips, and Liam smiled as she pulled away. "We should start soon. With Stormbreak gone, we may see more people coming here. I want to be ready to welcome them, if we do."

Two sinners can't atone from a lone prayer
Souls tied, intertwined by our pride and guilt
