Late Goodbye | Room 74,240 | Aphro as Needed

Jul 13, 2011 23:43

As the full moon shone through the clouds above, the entire kingdom of Seyruun seemed to glow under the sliver rays, only further illuminating the stunning white architecture of the city. It was a place of white magic, of goodness and truth, where all were equal and life was happy and prosperous. However, to the usually happy princess of the land, ( Read more... )

"You know this is a bad idea, right?"

"You've been at my side long enough to know that I don't care about bad ideas."

"Yes, and you should know that I will always comment on your idiocy as I see fit."

So the conversation went earlier as Aldray had prepped for this. Sneaking into the castle was hard enough for those with experience breaking in. For a cleric who could make a thunderstorm look subtle, it was a miracle he managed to get in without incident.

Here he stood in the doorway, behind Amelia. He'd seen the wedding dress, and it confused him - he knew something wasn't right, though. It just didn't seem to fit Amelia to send a letter like that. While he couldn't bring himself to be angry at the princess, he did want answers - however, as usual, he put her first, pulling his cloak off and setting it around her shoulders without a word.

The sudden feeling of something being draped around her shoulders made the girl bolt up from her seat. She immediately began to cast a spell as she whirled around, the cloak flying her shoulders, to aim at the assailant. How did someone get inside palace grounds without the guards noticing? It didn't matter, she'd find that out once the person was disarmed and interrogated ( ... )

Aldray took a few steps back as Amelia whirled on him, biting his lip. Admittedly, he should have made some noise to indicate he was in the room, but he wasn't thinking too clearly on the small things.

He started to reach forward when she said his name, but the sudden tone change, the averted eyes, those stopped him. His spirits fell a great deal, and he looked away as well. "I... I couldn't believe the letter. I had to see you, see for myself... To just do that, it's not like you. I want to know what's going on, and if there's anything I can do to fix it..."

Amelia was struggling herself to keep her mind clear, but for different reasons. Every fiber of her being was demanding her to just run into those large warm arms, hold him tight and never let go. Every word he said made the princess feel a sharp stabbing pain in her chest. She needed to tell him the truth, she knew that. And yet the cold mask still managed to stay in place on her features.

"There's nothing to fix." she spoke in a frosty tone. "It's over, that's all. It wouldn't work Aldray. Now, you better get out of here before the nightly patrol comes by."

Just because she was miserable didn't mean she should force him to endure the unfairness as well. If she played her part, she gave him a better chance of moving on, finding someone else. That way he wouldn't waste his life pining, the way she was sure she would be after tomorrow.

It was from the full moon above that a pair of somber blue eyes watched the world below. The city of Seyruun stood out among the others, and not just because it was clearly visible from space. Though the leadership was at times misguided, the kingdom was a beacon of peace and prosperity the likes of had yet to be equaled save for the hidden kingdoms of the moon. Libraries, gardens, everything one could imagined finding in a virtual utopia was present both in Seyruun and within the Silver Millennium ( ... )

The healer heard the chimes, but her mind was still fogged over with the harsh bitter ache of what was to become of her to pay it much mind. Nothing could phase her anymore, nothing could match this feeling that was eating away at her very being. She almost wished inwardly that she had never been silly enough to allow herself to fall in love, but immediately regretted the thought ( ... )

Her heart ached in ways she'd never felt before, ever since reading the letter. Though she knew the reasons why, and her mind had accepted it, there was no getting over the way she felt. Logic failed her in that respect, because she hadn't even realized just how attached she'd felt to the other girl until that moment when she'd opened the envelope. Now she was standing there, draped in darkness and looking into the mirror. A mirror, that meant... Mercury took a tentative step back, but it was too late. She'd been seen, which left her with only one option ( ... )

Amelia did not have the will within her to be quiet or stealthy, sneaking around seemed so dishonorable, and that would make her no better than the evil people she had fought so hard to bring to Justice. She would set an example and make those villains change their ways. Unfortunately that often made the art of surprise a waste, but it couldn't be helped ( ... )
