Vian
Ocean waves lapped against the shore, engulfing sand with each relentless battery of foaming swells, the scent foreign. Sniffing the wind as the current beyond raced to kiss land, Vian's heart seemed to swell in her chest. An extraordinary sense of helplessness overwhelmed her, and yet, she wasn't afraid. If anything, the Fae was awestruck, standing perfectly still while taking in details on the horizon. Even at night with cloud coverage blotting out the moon, there was no mistaking the presence of power unmeasured. Like potential devastation seen in complacence. A shiver moved from the base of her spine to her shoulders, causing Vian to shake in anticipation as if expectation of what came next was caressing her back muscles.
The fingers of fate promising everything and nothing at all.
" -take it you've never seen the ocean?"
Blinking from her silent torpor, Vian's gaze sought that of her companion, the coolness of his fingers entwined around her own managing to drag reality back into perspective. Something akin to a smile tugged at the corners of her lips. "It's so big... Where is the end?"
"Wherever the next tract of land might be." Krig's shrug was close, his shoulder brushing hers as his free hand directed attention back towards the water's edge. "East, as far as Europe. That would be my guess." A grin found his features as he added softly, "But there is no true end."
"How can that be?"
"As my father relayed to me on many an occasion, the ocean is a fantastic analogy for our kind. Ancient and roiling with energy, indefinite so long as this planet persists... Humanity long outgrew their need to praise it with declarations of allegiance, yet there is no force quite so deadly. A vast network, comprised of the smallest molecules, hidden beneath a captivating surface." Pleased with his words, Krig went on to say, "Which seems all too similar to the state of Fae these days. Each more beautiful than the last."
Perhaps Vian took the compliment well. She made no indication of it. Instead, the reflection of the moon meeting the distant waves remained the focal point of her intrigue. Relinquishing Krig's hand abruptly, unsure steps led the Fae across the cool earth despite hesitation clawing at her insides. He followed her at an arm's reach, though the woman knew in the furthest recesses of her being that this was a journey meant to be made alone. Self exploration didn't require an audience; mentally, she remained without one.
"Are you going for a dip?" Having stopped, Krig's voice trailed behind where the messy footprints continued in the sand. "Shouldn't you take off your jewelry at least?"
Vian didn't hear him. Submerging with each motion forward, the Fae sank beneath the dark surface of the abyss, welcoming the cold wash of eternity against her fledgling body.
Home momentarily.
