Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

Kaj, she knew that name. That name, it was locked away in the back of her memories, it had been mentioned perhaps by her leaders. The King of The Edge was currently speaking with her. Golden orbs grew a little wider, perhaps he would take this as a sign that she had indeed knew exactly who he was. Not that this changed anything, their herds were and peace and she held no personal grudge against him or his family. She figured a little too late that she probably should not have given him even this slight indication of her knowledge for fear of pushing him away. Instead, he moved closer. Relief flooded her.

He remained silent, though she could feel his eyes on her as she had returned to gazing up into the moonlight. Under his eyes she felt more...alive, it had been so long since she felt the keen sting of someone else's warmth. At this point his intentions still remained unknown to her and the one thing he truly wanted was to share her warmth on this night. Yet as he spun his words to her it quickly became apparent that he had many things and perhaps nothing on his mind all at once. The tale begins, a lost sister- Arah who had lost her own knew much of this pain but for the moment remained silents sensing his need to unburden his soul. Controlled by a father and of course the hope one felt when they finally came to this land and saw the beauty, the promise and the magic. She can hear awe in his tones as the king speaks. Indeed it is a story she knew well, so similar to her own. Arah understood. A sad smile now pulled at the corner of her lips, their positions had changed, now she watched him as he gazed into the distance.

Love. The blissful, unforgettable and irreplaceable feeling. Then if it's snatched away from you, or if it fades or if it's simply just lost all you're left with is the memories. They way they smiled, the way their voice sounded, how they laughed and their scent. Even the smaller details remain with you. But life continued around you and you just floated with the current until eventually it hurts a little less and you wake up. Continue on with your life and do your very best to lock away the painful memories about the other one, hoping that you'll lose the key and never have to look upon them again.

Arah could hear the absolute raw agony in his voice, yet his eyes and voice, they had reached a complete state of numbness. It seemed that he had just been pummelled over and over again. No one had stopped to think about Kaj and what he may or may not have done for them.

Selfish.
Love could just be selfish.

Finally her cold and empty eyes turn and look upon her. She simply stares back, her expression troubled and confused for him. Her lighter was lighter than his, although it was was to hear sadness laced within the sounds. "I used to think that love was the only thing someone needed to survive." Reaching over she gently nudged his shoulder with her nose. "I see now it's actually requited love that we need." Laughing again Arah sighs before thinking about everything he had just said, wondering how to make him feel somewhat better about the entire situation that he found himself. Wearing your heart on your sleeve was risky business and Kaj seemed to be a professional at this now. "I can promise you one thing, you won't fade away. Only love does." Such a formidable creature to behold it was hard to see him struggling so badly. "You've been mistreated terribly, it seems to me you have two choices." Smiling Arah turned to stare as Kaj and make sure he understood everything she was about to tell him.

"Life is this unfortunate, painful and giant mess." Narrowing her eyes the doe's voice picked up as she looked over him. "But that's also the beauty of it!" Chuckling and rolling her eyes, the fae princess turns and looks out into the forest again. "You can either go home and speak to this lady love of yours and fight for her." Smiles and humour gone, Arah was deadly serious, her eyes set upon an unseen future that may be Kaj's. "Or." Golden orbs snapped back to Kaj's face. "Find some one new who returns the flame. Wear your heart on your sleeve." Leaning forward she presses into him again, gently, offering him support and her friendship. "You never know who you're going to meet." With that she pulls back to wink at him before turning her gaze towards the moon and stars once again.

"Beautiful night isn't it? Perfect for mending broken hearts."
