It is strange, I am not used to such contact outside of Haven and Idunn whom I raised. For this I feel a little bad, perhaps she was closer to her family than I my own, used to the contact. While Daenerys and I are close I do not hug her as so, I am just simply not used to such contact by an adult female. I do not really mind it though, I feel something warm rush through me when she does and when she pulls away the feeling leaves. I would welcome it again but for the moment I am happy to simply smile at her happy she is here and I am not left by my soul again. I feel almost as if I had betrayed her, but I am not sure if I truly had as pure of a soul bond with Sage as I did Iophiel. My soul I think was simply lonely when it called out for that of the angel princess but now back with the star touched angel I am happy to say I feel complete. She seems pleased with my songlike voice, something I liked about myself and would not be modest over my smile grows happy it pleases her.
Her question though leaves me to tilt my gold and mahogany head, blinking my forest green eyes at her query though perhaps it would be strange to say I knew my answer. ”Yes, I have often imagined myself as they are, soaring in the skies while instead I lay on the forest floor. I have dreamed of it too. What an amazing experience it must be for them.” I say looking to the sky remembering the days when I was so alone and wished I simply could soar with the feathered friends I had made. ”It must sound strange.” I chuckle lightly shaking my head though I do not regret telling her this I often wish I could fly with them be so free but finally I have something to anchor me here, my sisters and now Iophiel returns to me.
I do not wish for her to wander away again and it is almost like my concerns trickled through to her. I was surprised as she burst that she didn’t wish to be away from me. I can’t help but look surprised by this, always I wanted nothing more than for her to be close yet I do not wish to call to her so strongly that she cannot do what she wishes. It hurt my very being the first time when we had severed and parted ways, and while I believe my soul has calloused over with all the separation. Still I knew it would hurt if she parted again. She was so straight forward though about it, did she… wish me to leave the mountain then? Be with her? I was about to rly to her when she asked to see my home once more.
”Would you stay with me there?” I ask of her, I hope she will say yes. For as much as I wish nothing but the same I simply cannot leave Daenerys, Idunn, Haven and my birth home behind, especially with Daenerys so close to having children I know will not have a father and will need me to be there for them. It still angers me though that she would fall to such a thing… I am certain he made promises ones I know he couldn’t keep and for whatever reason she believed him again. Foolish… both of them.
Still something seems to be growing better in my life and I am certain it is Iophiel being here. Perhaps that was all I needed to quell this storm in me, she was the calm that I needed to have in order to balance the constant turbulence in my life. ”I would like nothing more if you choose to.” I say to her softly looking away not sure what brings upon me this sudden uncertainty that perhaps I was getting my hopes up being too forward myself but like her I was not one to really beat around the bush especially regarding this matter. I turned to begin leading her to mountain. It was what she wished after all and I wasn’t going to deny it.
