From his position on the ground, he proclaimed he was fine — all the while wincing as he huffed off the blows of her pointed joints. It wasn't much of a secret, at least to Elysium, that perhaps the golden wraith should spend a bit less time with her trinkets and a bit more time at the dinner table. Maybe if she put on some weight, she'd be graced with much less deadly angles.
Eventually, the stranger would lift himself, and Amaranth would flick her head slightly at the dual introduction. Nate and ... Ko-Ga. Slowly, Amaranth's gaze would shift toward the cawing creature in the crook of a nearby tree — Ko-Ga. A soft smile laced her lips, the fond memory of her own daughter Sylvi flooding her with endorphins.
She almost forgot Nate was speaking.
Hmm?The sound escaped her lips as she turned back toward him. Right.
I'm Amaranth, High Augur of Elysium,she'd hum, the softness of her voice tangling with the cold breeze.
I don't believe we've met ...She would have remembered one with such a plush frame, she thought. Besides, she wasn't much of a ... social butterfly.
I admit I'm often more of a homebody,she'd explain, slowly blinking her amythyst eyes.
If only home was available right now.
She would sigh again.
"Do you need — help?"
She shook her head softly.
Time will heal.The words were cryptic, and perhaps holding a deeper meaning than Nate might realize. Time would heal all things, including her relationship — it had to.
My family may come back for me, once they've forgiven me.At that, Amaranth would huff, running her tongue over her teeth. Perhaps she'd said too much.
Do you live here?
Good save.
