The naked bramble, twigs and snow covered holly was thick, but not so tangled to conceal her lean frame entirely from my view. I could see the outlining flicker of flames, a memorable mark of sun. A slope of her grey dappled shoulder and tattered wing covered in grime. Tangled locks of soiled hair...My crown leans over, shifting to the right and left in an attempt to see past the cloak of trees. "Africa...?" I whispered, half wondering through the haze of a sleep deprived mind if this was all just in my imagination. Perhaps my journey was all a poorly constructed dream and I would wake to find those cold, uncaring slabs of rock around me once more.

Fina's trill song filled the air from somewhere above, she seemed agitated about something. I took a small step into the shadows, abandoning the warmth of sunlight for darkness. The Africa I knew would have come forward, she'd have greeted me as if our time apart had been nothing but a span of a few hours. "Are ye...?" Chipped off, my throat was simple closed off. Why did a normally steady voice sound so strained, weak? I half expected the girl to vanish, as if she were some elusive spirit sent to trick me or a fragment of my imagination.

"Why...?" Yar, why what? Why did fate have to be so cruel, why did Seele have to die, why did Africa disappear, only to reappear a malnourished...broken looking woman? I'm broken too. Today I can't console her wounds or sorrows the why I'd might have. There are to many fresh emotions, to many tears unshed.
