Anath had returned home. She had been back to the Peak, and hell, she’d even seen her daughter. As far as Anath knew, Bane was the only one still alive… unless. Unless. Dully, she thinks of Zavulon, the son born of the man that she’d never even felt for. The captor that had become her friend. It wasn’t even Stockholm syndrome. Anath’s time in the Inlet had been something else entirely. Enemies to friends, confidants, and survivors. In the end, he hadn’t survived. Rodion, Koschei-- they were added to her list of ghosts. So many ghosts. Her head swam with them, but it wasn’t even in the worst way. The ghosts had been company, they had kept Anath warm. In a way, they even kept her together. There were bats in Anath’s belfry these days. It was hard to keep them out, at her age. No, instead the ghosts kept her safe, they kept her living for… well, for something at least. It was so much easier when she wasn’t alone, despite that being functionally the case. Something tugs her back towards the ice and the snow. Though the Peak would always be her home, there was something about the Inlet. The legendary general needed to see it, just to be sure. Needed to see it, needed to feel the chill in the air despite the warm summer breezes. It was such a strange place. Though it had never been a home to her (and had, in honesty, been a cage for some time), she missed it. A magnetic force, bringing the creature back towards it. Anath pulls herself to the rocky shore of the Inlet. She shook the sea from her champagne coat, but it was cooler here, and would take some time to dry. On the beach, she would stand and simply assess it. Some things would never change, and Anath is grateful for it. Functionally, aesthetically, it’s the same as she left it. It was so much in the same way that she had walked away from this place… there’s a far away look in her eye. In the far off place, she can see Rodion here. His shadow was ever present, and cast long over the space before her. Anath caught her breath where she stood, and where she waited. The old general would take a long, long time to take all of this in. Though her body ached, the champagne mare’s heart was doing okay. Anath "HEROES GET REMEMBERED LEGENDS NEVER DIE " |
