Lux's steps are big when she moves. It's easier that way. You come off more elegant, more in charge. She's perfectly in control of herself, has a handle on all the things she thinks and all the things she feels. It's the mind of a general, one that knows exactly who they are, what they're doing, and where they're going. Hey, sometimes you need to fake it until you make it. Lux truly had no clue where she was going, but it was easier to pretend she did. The fall was pretty enough as it was, and she was able to cope with not having anyone to lead. She's able to deal with being on her own. Supposedly, she could do this. Crownguards could do anything. Lux clings to her name like a child to their blankie, and it's easier to cope in this way. Coping mechanisms, you see, are important. Lux's blankie has been her army. Now that she's left that behind, this is where she's at. This is how she copes, how she handles. She's unshakable. There's nothing she can do about it, other than cope. Other than go with it. As the final spark moves toward the redbud nook, her breath slinks from her lungs. It's beautiful. It's more than beautiful, and she's drawn in like a moth to flame. It was as if the entirety was on fire. The fall colors were erupting around her, and Lux realizes just how beautiful this place can be. Luxanna Crownguard Plan comes together |
