It would be nice to encounter old friends. I would even be delighted to see those from my world who are unknown to me. [After all, such a meeting has worked out quite well for him where Starwind is concerned.] The path I have chosen might end in pain and misery, but for now - it fills me with new strength and hope. I did not think someone would be able to look beyond my wounds and see Firesong.

[His smile is strained.] And even if they could, the Firesong I once was...

He was not worthy of love.

Okay so I couldn't resist. Hi. >>;;

[proudesteagle]

Old friends?

Omgomgomgomg <3 <3 <3

[healerofthevale]

Or new ones. I'm not picky.

lolol <333

[proudesteagle]

[That's earned a laugh.]

No? Not even a little?

they can be ridiculous together <3

[healerofthevale]

Maybe a little. I would prefer those from my clan.

And it will be awesome~

[proudesteagle]

Which would that be?

Absolutely 83

[healerofthevale]

I am a Healing-Adept of the Tayledras. I have worked almost solely on repairing and protecting the k'Shenya Vale.

Ahahahaha~

[proudesteagle]

Much like my honored father, then, though he seldom left k'Treva.

[healerofthevale]

Who was your father, might I ask?

[proudesteagle]

Which one?

[healerofthevale]

You had two? [His interest is caught.]

[proudesteagle]

Three, I suppose. Depending upon who is counted.

[healerofthevale]

Would one of them have the name Vanyel Ashkevron by chance?

[proudesteagle]

He would.

[healerofthevale]

Starwind has spoken of...Brightstar? Though it would be wrong of me to say I have never heard that name before.

[proudesteagle]

Another father. Has he told you stories of my incurable impatience yet?

[healerofthevale]

He might have mentioned it.

[A delicate pause.]

I believe he thinks I inherited it.

[proudesteagle]

How unsurprising.

Inherited?

[healerofthevale]

I am of your line. [He bows politely.] My name is Firesong.

[proudesteagle]

I suppose I should be surprised and yet...

[healerofthevale]

Certain bonds do not require words, perhaps? I am honored to meet you.

[proudesteagle]

Perhaps, though I can simply trace it to my own...pastimes.

Keren'sel, Firesong.

[healerofthevale]

Fi'zhai, Brightstar. And your pastimes matter not to me. I have had many partners.

[proudesteagle]

There is no harm in loving.

[healerofthevale]

I would agree and yet...

I do not believe I have truly allowed myself to love.

[proudesteagle]

If my father were here, he would say that each one walks their own path and that what is right for one may not be so for another.

[healerofthevale]

He is right. Perhaps my age and my experiences are catching up with me at last.

[He touches his mask and bows his head.]

[proudesteagle]

Ge'teva, I should hope you might enjoy yourself, even a little.

[heraldsavil]

I think I hear an idiot who needs a fist to the top of the head...

[huffgrump]

So you have a few scars, everyone gets them. Someone who can't see beyond that can't really love anyways. As long as you learn and grow, the future is always an open sky.
