i am a leaf on the wind

Today, she does not leave the Edge. It’s rare for her, this staying put here. But she knows if she keeps up and leaving, wandering Helovia like the nomad, than this place will never become home. It’s her own fault it’s not already home. She just couldn’t stomach how hard it’s been to start over. Not, not just hard. Miserable. Every time she hears a deep laugh, she thinks of Corbin. Every time she hears a high, needy whine, she thinks of Adelene (not so bad as Lyanna might pretend, because she misses her sister despite all their differences).
 
But they are gone. And it’s just her. And she cannot bring herself to move forward. To move past their ghosts and make her own life.
 
And then that realization makes her feel like a failure. Corbin wouldn’t be proud of her. He’d taught her to be strong. He’d taught her to fight and to control the wind (also gone, like everything else). He’s taught her to be, most important, herself. She can hear his voice in her head, chiding her. And then she’s stumbled into that damn shadow and he’d been there. Actually been there. Her feet his is buckskin coat, the world around them had erupted in flame.
 
It’d been a mirage, but it was better than nothing.
 
But today, she forces herself to stay. She’s at the edge of the kingdom, trying to learn her way around the broken glass wall. Trying to learn where the holes large enough to step through were. Not that she doesn’t just fly over the wall herself, but rather, because she does try to bring the occasional recruit back. And they don’t always fly. Besides, it seems like a good think to know. She had to try, after all, if anything was ever going to change. 

watch how i soar.
