((EXIT TO MIDGAR))

You were always there to hold my hand
When times were hard to understand
But now the tides of time have turned
They keep changing

Seasons range, but you remain the same
A steady heart, a sun to rain
You'll be the light that's shining bright
High above me

Autumn cold, losing heart

We are leaves meant to fall
There is a meaning to all
That fades







Frail is our beauty in the end
But all we count is sentiment
A memory stays to guide the way and whisper

Don't lose sight, don't deny
We're leaves meant to fall
There's a meaning to all our

Seeds of eulogy
To sow along with dreams
Fill the need that can leave us grieving alone
A symphony resounding in our minds
Guides us through what we knew
would come all along

You were always there to hold my hand
When times were hard to understand
But now the tides of time have turned
They keep changing

Seasons range, but you remain the same
A steady heart, a sun to rain
You'll be the light that's shining bright
High above me

Autumn cold, losing heart

We are leaves meant to fall
There is a meaning to all
That fades







Frail is our beauty in the end
But all we count is sentiment
A memory stays to guide the way and whisper

Don't lose sight, don't deny
We're leaves meant to fall
There's a meaning to all our

Seeds of eulogy
To sow along with dreams
Fill the need that can leave us grieving alone
A symphony resounding in our minds
Guides us through what we knew
would come all along

Lavan was sitting on a smooth rock near the road, his thick pack laying next to him as he relaxed for a short time before the next leg of his journey. He didn't know where he was going really, he was just wandering wherever it felt right. He would still be walking, but he had been a Herald. He could cover massive distances on his Companion, and a still decent amount on a normal horse, but long foot travel was no something he had ever become used too. Heralds were almost always mounted, that was why he was tired again. He happened to be gazing blankly down the road when he suddenly saw a white form coming around a bend, white, and on four legs. He lurched to his feet, still a little unsteady on them, as some irrational hope leaped into his mind. Another Herald? But it only took him seconds to notice many, many differences. It was a giant lion, and the woman riding it only looked kinda human... Something was off about her, but he couldn't tell what at this distance.

After Lavan staggered a bit just after standing, he planted his feet a little more firmly so he didn't stumble. He hadn't thought he'd been that tired. He wasn't breathing heavily, he had been stopped for several minutes, so it was more that his muscles were still tired then anything else. He watched the woman riding the giant lion as she approached, hand away from the sword and knife at his belt. He doubted that anyone on this world knew how effectivly he could... disable most threats without ever resorting to bladework. That didn't mean he didn't know how to use his sword, oh no. The Weaponsmaster had beat him into the ground and the lessons into his brain often enough that he was a fairly good fighter, just above the accepted level of military competence. However, the approach didn't seem threatening, well, at least as non-threatening as a giant cat could be. The woman riding the massive lion was actually intriguing him more then the giant cat. After all, he had seen a couple of abnormal animals, and was quite used to the pure white on some of them. However, the woman... that was a completely different story. As far as he could tell, she appeared to be a near-perfect match for the old bard's tales descriptions of elves. The tales may have been fictional, but this was just a little more surreal because of that. The unconscious ethereal grace, the more defined yet softer facial structure, the pointed ears, it all matched. But those icy-blue eyes... They reminded him so strongly of Kalira... Her eyes had been exactly the same color... He averted his eyes as the memories sent yet another jolt of pain through his heart. "No, just... tired. I'm not used to walking this much, this far." He said, sitting down a tad heavily on the rock again.

"No, she was... killed." Lavan said, when Nakia asked about him having a mount. He silently accepted the canister she offered, pulling his own water skin out, unstoppering both and filling his skin with some of what was in the bottle. "Thank you." He said, handing her back her canister, which would still be mostly full. And, he recalled a spring just down the road, so she could fill it again if she wanted to. "I'm not really going anywhere. Iv'e just been... wandering." He said, and listened as she introduced herself. all but visibly wincing when she called Nasha her companion. Another needle through the heart, that was. "Glad to meet you both." He said, to both Nakia and Nasha, presuming that Nasha could be just as intelligent as he was, or more. The Companions in his world had been, and everyone always treated them like horses. Everyone but Heralds, anyways. "I'm Lavan." He said, offering Nakia a hand, trying to hide the pain that the most innocent of word choices sent through him.

"Don't worry about it." Lavan said quietly when she apologized about his Companion. "You can't change the past." No matter what you might be willing to sacrifice for it... "I don't know much, but there is a city a few candlemarks journey down this road." He said, and glanced at Nakia for a moment before looking away again, without ever meeting those blue eyes. "No offense... but I don't think you would like it there. They've taken all the life out of living there, and only a few people even seem to care about anything past their greed anymore." He said. It was a rather harsh assessment of Midgar, but in his mind, it seemed pretty accurate. Not far down this road and into the woods though, there is a clean spring. There's at least clean water there." He said, standing up after a moment. He didn't want to discuss anything about Kalira and their... deep connection. Not yet, even now, so long afterward, it still felt like it had only been a few hours ago. "I can show you where it is, if you want." He said, offering her a hand up. Something that she would probably notice, with those sharp eyes, was how he seemed to be avoiding her eyes as much as possible.
