"If Love himself weep, shall not lovers weep,
learning from what sad cause he pours his tears?
Love hears his ladies crying their distress,
showing forth bitter sorrow through their eyes
because villainous Death has worked its cruel
destructive art upon a gentle heart,
and laid waste all that earth can find to praise
in a gracious lady, save her chastity."

Macabre lets her gaze drift out across the open jungle of Paradise. She'd spent so many night here. Many of those alone. The mare hardly found it in her to cross the ocean anymore to go to the Crossing. Part of her felt guilty for that. But as she looked around Paradise now, her ears taking in the constant drone of the atmosphere, alive with the terrain's many other inhabitants, it made her feel at home. She didn't want to leave this place. She'd been safe here. She'd been able to take care of herself all this time without the need to rely on others. She didn't want someone else to take that all away from her.

The chestnut mare smiles weakly when Jetta speaks. She bobs her head, if for no other reason than to just let this part of the conversation die. Macabre couldn't be happier that Jetta was here. She didn't want to bog down their engagement with more of her silly problems, anyway.

When Jetta asks to stay Macabre looks to her again with lingering worry. Something was wrong, whether Jetta was ready to tell her about it or not, that much Macabre knew. She nickered sweetly to her friend. "Of course you can stay. Aillil will be delighted to have new company."

"Hear then how Love paid homeage to this lady;
I saw him weeping there in human form,
observing the stilled image of her grace;
and more than once he raised his eyes toward Heaven,
where that sweet soul already had its home,
which once, on earth, had worn enchanting flesh."

OOC: Sorry this is so short. But agreed! It's a nice place to stop. :3
