"Save your platitudes for someone who cares." Alina's voice came out swiftly and unwaveringly. She didn't need Delphia's wisdom, nor did she want it. After all, demi-god or not, the huntress had lived many more years than the other woman. Moreover, the Fae had been custodians of the Greatwood longer than the generations of Thanatos that had lived among them.
Without bothering to say goodbye, or watch Delphia leave, Alina decided to take one last look in the puddles. As she did, her eyes widened in surprise and her expression softened. The image it showed was a pleasant one, for once: Alina surrounded by her Fae kin, no outsiders in sight, sun shining, without a hint of trouble on the horizon. Maybe it was just the future she wanted, but it was also a future she could work towards.
So she flew away, resolved to do just that.
-FIN
