Coming out of the door she heard it shut behind them. The air that hit them was nice and warm, sunny. Or at least it would hit Hao. Her, on the other hand, wouldn't seem to be there at all. The spirit was there but the body itself was not. It was in the ground somewhere. Although, how exactly they'd find her grave from here was beyond her. Could he ( Read more... )

"Ahh... The sun is nice," Hao says, turning his face into it. "It's a pity you can't feel it."

He can see her. He can hear her. He's even still holding her hand; there are advantages to being a shaman.

"I know what it feels like." But then again she knew something else too. Something hotter and more violatile than the sun. Blue eyes blinked however when she realized that he was still holding her hand. "There are days I wish I could feel it over again. But I can't."

Looking around and figuring out what area they were in she started them on their walk. How far the cemetary was from here she didn't know, couldn't remember. Or maybe she'd just never known at all.

Hao is content to follow her, for the moment.

She didn't say a word. There was nothing to say. What he was doing she didn't know. She knew in the sense that he'd told her but beyond that... she didn't know a thing of what he was doing. It was odd to see and her mind kept going back to what he'd told her. But that was the hardest part. She couldn't let go of Sam. Even if he could let go of her.

"I saw what you couldn't tell me," he says softly. "And I think I understand your trouble with that, now."

She gives a slight nod and frowns even as he says that. Something like that... what had happened, she wouldn't put on anyone. No matter what. "Do you?"

"It's never easy to talk about, that kind of death," he replies. "You're fortunate to be as you are - many spirits who die like that... lose themselves."
