After a long while, she whispered, "I was asking the gods to take my memories, my... memories of my homeland. I couldn't... couldn't l-leave the girls, they're so..." Little was the word she was searching for, and as she pushed herself away from Noah, her voice numb, dull, her eyes matched.

I wasn't... I wasn't clear." She whispered, fingers twisting into her shirt, anxiously. "I wasn't... They weren't clear either..." She sniffled, shaking her head.

"I did it... I didn't... didn't mean... but..." She stammered.

He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe,
Believe in him and believe in me,
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green,
To your beautiful destiny.
