my whole life is mine, but whoever says so will deprive me,
for it is infinite.
Amun raised his eyebrows at the other man's comment. "I've heard of landlubbers, but never land walkers." Chuckling, it faded away as the potter's expression grew sad again. "I think you'll find I'm not like most land walkers though." Leaning forward, he dipped his hand in the water and let it pour through his fingers. "I grew up on the sea. In another world." Smiling almost fondly, he shook the last of the droplets from his hand.
Nodding, he shifted so he could look at the stranger. "Didn't know there was company out here. Not that I mind yours." The Ascended's lips twitched, showing a hint of fang. "Not yet at least."
However he sighed when the other man asked who Amun was grieving for. "Her name was Maea. I considered her family, a sister." He looked out to the horizon, then scrubbed his eyes as a bit of fluid threatened to leak out.
Raising his eyebrows, he smiled faintly, though his eyes were still sad. "Your waters? You sound like someone important." There was a ghost of the old teasing there. "I suppose I should thank you for the waters and your company both then. So thanks.' He tried to muster up the appropriate amount of gratitude but only succeeded partway.

by being moved I exert my empire,
making the dreams of night real
