Kayse (prime)/Vignette: Alone

Her toned frame sat motionless in the dark cabin, the argent moonbeams from the window illuminating a small corner of the home.


Her hand clutched a dark gray parchment and a few droplets fell sporadically upon the paper.


Being alone never bothered her in the past, truth be told, she preferred it. But recently she had a taste of what it meant to be with someone who fully understood her at her core.


Now, the weight of being alone felt like a minotaur sitting on her chest and with each breath the Aelotoi tried to take, she gasped for air.


Would this turn out to be an example of another time? Another place? 


Or would this time be different? Would he return to her after he finished what he needed to do? 


Her pear green eyes skimmed over the brief missive again. "Kayse: Remember, I love you."


She would always love him, no matter how much time passed. She would wait.


....Would he still love her? 


The last question lingered in her mind, causing a few stray tears to fall upon the parchment again.  The quiet noise hitting the paper was enough to snap her out of trance.


“Enough.” She demanded of herself. She folded the parchment, kissed it once and banished it to her vanity case.


You have work to do.


Pulling a parchment and quill from a drawer in the table, she set it down to write upon:. 


Amos,

This evening the four town councilors held a public council meeting to discuss ousting you as Steward of the Guild……


She wrote quickly in a language that was foreign to her. The corners of her lips smirked upward as she signed her name upon the bottom with a flourish.
