Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated

WESSEX

This time, the modesty is genuine, the trust the two of them place in her swimming to the surface and topping everything else she might feel in that moment. They trust her. And when the pieces fall far from where she hopes, when the aftermath of her actions seeps into reality and she must give up her crown, though jealousy will undoubtedly edge its way into her thoughts - she will remember this moment. Wessex will recall how once she said that she was a leader for a particular time, and how when it comes to a fight (and it seems like they’re always fighting), she will once again step up.

Right now, all the Wraith need is the love of her sister and the trust of her brother. They’ve made strides today, her and Bastien. It feels good. It feels like home. She ducks her head for a moment, leaning in to the feeling. “Thank you.” Heading to the door, she pauses and turns back to the pair, with a smile. “I can’t wait to see what our Lady does with your eyes.”

And then she’s gone.

No, I’ll be the stone
I’ll be the hunter, a tower that casts the shade
I lie awake and watch it all
