Alyssia Kanath
07-02-2006, 12:28 PM
The sun was just breaking over the horizon as Alyssia finished packing the last of the things that had adorned her desk in the jail office. She sheathed her sword, shouldered her quiver and wiped a stray tear that had trickled down her cheek.
"This kills my heart..." She whispered to herself.
But then again to stay would be the same fate. The Guardianship was in disaray, as was the freehold. Silvara had spend most her time holed up in her palace and over the months Alyssia had tried to open lines of communication but had failed at near every turn.
She was not the one who save this place... And though she felt as if she was betraying those she loved most, she knew that in the end if she stayed her growing discontent would be the true betrayer to those who she had spent so long defending.
They would be stronger in the end. She needed to move on. She needed to make her own way in the world again.
She would return to her roots. Return to her brethren and they would rejoice with her arrival.
She walked down the stairs to the jail in the Freehold of Mirage and trudged through the avenues... Taking one long sad look upon the palace, tears streamed down her cheeks once again. She whispered softly to the wind...words to the Queen... "I 'ave always loved you Silvara...an' you know this. Though you may see my actions as betrayal...perhaps one day you will understand. I love you...I will always love you...an' I can nae longer watch you destroy yerself. If you need me...you know how to reach me..."
She knew her words had been heard. Because as she whispered them, they filtered outward from her mind and the Queen would have picked them up using her ability to telepathically communicate with all those in the freehold.
"I have done my duty...given you my sword...an' now 'tis time for destiny to push me into another direction. Be well Silvara..." She looked around to all the Freehold, determined to be gone before any one caught her. "Be well all of you..my family...my friends. I am but a whispered word away..."
And with that, Alyssia Kanath made her way from the desert and towards the forest...towards the Spiritwood...towards her home...and towards the Rangers of the Heart. Once a Ranger of the Heart...
Always a Ranger of the heart.
The youngest of their sisters, funny thought as she was so elder, was coming home...
