I'm dead in the water, still looking for ya'
He says that I have a family, something worth protecting and I cannot help but to smile. It was true, and I was glad. After all the toils I had been through I wasn't sure if I'd ever have gotten the chance at another family. But it seemed that the Gods were in my favor, for I had a few others who had cared about me. Alas, the conversation shifted to the caves and I turned, to move in a little closer to the stag who was asking. "I trusted you - not to lead us into oblivion. I didn't quite know what was going on, but I also knew I couldn't exactly call the Throat a home. I felt… strange. Everyone seemed to have wings, and I was… too different for it. It was only coming here, seeing these lands that I realized how much I had missed the consistent flow of waters and lush grasses much like my old home," I explained before glancing back at him. "But, either way I would have stayed with you because I consider you family. And, because I consider you family I wanted to make sure you had someone as you'd been there for me." Yes. He was family, that was the main reason I had followed. All the others? They just only confirmed my belief that I should have gone with him. Because it had turned out to be so, so very good. So very right. And I was so glad that I was finally finding something that felt right. |
