I'll leave my love hidden in the sun
The day had yet to die when the portal shimmered into existence and disgorged a frazzled looking young woman into the serene park that was Mourn. Onto a graveled path she had once walked in what seemed ages past the girl stepped anew, and immediately let the way back fall shut behind her. Night trailed in her wake as she impatiently began to stalk the well tended paths, past stone seats and unlit lanterns, in search of a friend. The gray light of the day, drizzly and chill, could do little to disguise the midnight aura, nor did the haze in the air do anything to soothe her fevered imagination.
"Deimos?" she called, when the hasty search yielded no immediate results. Tension was rife within her voice, and it was a miracle that it did not break. Maybe he hadn't arrived yet. She had waited as long as she could endure after sending the response to his letter, but... perhaps she had misjudged how long it would take him to get here.
