away you rolling river

there's a fire starting in my heart

reaching a fever pitch

Although Loren and Abasi had been spending quite a bit of time together, it had felt a little bit lacking. Not that the summoner disliked the nights they spent together (quite the opposite, in fact), but a lot had happened and they hadn’t really had a chance to catch up. Besides, he wanted to do something special for the undertaker.

So the Launceleyn had asked the other man to meet him at the edge of the Greatwood. Now that the forest was open to visitors, Loren figured it might be nice to show Abasi a bit more of the world of Caido. Plus, the summoner hadn’t explored much of the Greatwood either. So, trees and Fae magic permitting, they’d find a nice spot to spend the day.

When the undertaker showed up, the Launceleyn grinned. He was dressed in sturdy boots, and nice, but serviceable clothes. Although one arm had a basket, and the other was carrying a blanket, he walked forward, hoping to steal a kiss. ”Thanks for coming. I’m excited to steal you away for the day.” It was clear how excited he was about the possibility. ”I thought we could start by walking along the river?” The Stonesong was beautiful, and Loren figured they could find a scenic spot for the picnic lunch he had prepared.

and it's bringing me out the dark
