Ties crafted by the thin flow of blood upon which life had grown a futile dependency, flimsy lines of fraying tether that need only a too harsh touch to break. Few those who bore such title, though long the extended eternity her poorly mended heart had sung a fading melody. Had been posed the question of reasoning possibly the matter of worth may have arose in the hush of quiet breath, of who only guessed upon. Yet total her silence upon matters once deemed a trivial prying into places one is not permitted, expected the courtesy of retaining her privacy.
Almost amusing how time had come to cast such notion into a new light, rethinking promotex based upon a single person. Or had it been two. Momentary her existence, caught in the tangible weight of present moments, fleeting a future she deemed a notion of naive dreaming.
The indraw of breath through the tight closure of her teeth startled her forth, cruel the jagged shock that laced the frayed edges of her nerves. Correct the notion of his change, how age and time had wrought upon the delicate skin of angelic cast into mortal flesh something distinctly unique. Poor the meeting of faded recollection, of how once he had been and thus was inscribed upon her mind. "Aurum…"
When did she begin to cry, barely of note the manner moisture gathered and fell, glimmering tracks drawn across silver cheeks. She should not have returned, allowed the spectre of her prior visitation to simply fade, unearned her placement among these people. It was not away she turned, however, minute the tremor to small paws that drew her forth. Only a few steps may she perform, once more halted as his voice arose in query.
Why had she left.
Easier to question why she may have come, to pick the mind of the devil and question why did he act upon such dark whim and desire. Many the times she had offered forth the question to herself, wondered over the intelligence behind her decision. She knew, of course she understood her reasoning to be set upon flimsy framework but it had been enough, apart did it fall as her tongue struggled to frame each word. On prevailed her silence and almost was V prepared to brush it aside, ignore it within favour of merely indulging within the reunion.
"Now it seems so silly." Hushed her voice as she approached with small, unsure steps, not wishing to cross any boundaries he may deem necessary. All too tempting was it, her halt leaving a small space between them, ground he must cross even as her heart ached to do so. "I had already lost my daughter, I did not wish to lose my sons as well."
Momentary her pause, head tilting back to search his gaze. Realisation had struck within the first moments, apparent the lack of secondary eye hued in the soft colouring of the morning sky, such did not halt the culmination of sorrow eating at her heart. "Your eye… I wanted to protect you, was so wrapped up in my delusions I thought my leaving would keep you safe. I know now I was wrong, things are different here." Bitter the laughter that rode upon the curl of her tongue, averted her gaze. "I do not wish to harm you, if my being here will do so I will leave, I simply wished to see you one more time."
