How many days had it taken him to get here? One? Two? Maybe three? He had lost count of the days due to his frequent stops and dazed vision. His intentions had been to go home, but the closer he got to Seracia, the more his plans started to change. He needed to check on Chrysanthe, because he knew she would need his support now more then ever. His wounds were still fairly fresh, and it would take at least a week for them to completely heal. The stops were necessary, and through it his determination to see her again had fueled him. He nearly collapsed at the borders, but he kept going on until he knew he was safe again. Wobbly, shaky, and breathing heavily, the man would tip his skull back and call for Chrysanthe. He needed to let her know that he was back, and that he was alive. Her guilt and sadness, if she had any, could be lifted. Lips would seal as he would slowly sink toward the earth, allowing himself to relax for the first time in weeks beneath the suns satisfactory warmth.

Quote:His call struck her as a ghost's would, haunting - because she knew not what his fate was. She worried for him, worried for all of the men that were trapped in Glaciem but his visage stuck with her. His amber orange gaze kept her from sleeping at times, sad and pained but so willing to be just where he was on her part. He had fought not for Valhalla, but for her - it was obvious, it made her stomach churn and her lips quiver. For how would the caring she felt for him ever equate to the love and loyalty he held to her for little to nothing in return? The woman would step toward the sound, her gaze wide, her heart filled with disbelief. Had he really found a way out of Glaciem? Had he been released? Had he fought? What would start as a slow, heavy walk would quickly turn into a sprint - she needed to know if Themisto was really there. If this was a trick, a lie, her guilt finally affecting her physically she would be sick - but in those moments that she ran, her feet barely touching the ground, there was hope.
"Themisto?!" She would call - only to come to a quick stop. Seeing him laying in the sunlight, he didn't seem real at first. The woman would blink, stepping forward with slight hesitance. But as she watched him, blinking, making sure that he didn't vanish as she opened her eyes again, she would see his heavy beathing and catch his fur glisten in the light - only for her lips to pull into a grin as she realized that he was indeed there. "Themisto, you're here. I-" She was at a loss for words, but she would step toward him, wanting to close the distance and and nuzzle his neck. "You're free?" Her question would hang in the air, the emotion seeming to pull the woman to a hault. If he was an escapee she would try to hide him, but perhaps there was hope for him being released from Glaciem's shackles.
