Goodnight Moon and Goodnight You

He hated the fact that he had waited so damn long. But at least... he had done at least one thing to make up for it. He had given up his life, to save his baby girl. Now a full grown woman. He felt that all he could do now was apologize. But even then, no amount of apologies would make up for anything. Or so he felt. Though when she said that she could never hate him, he felt a weight lifted off his shoulders. Off his very soul. He didn't know why he had such an intense fear of being hated by her...but at least he knew now that she didn't. "My little Ashe...how you've...grown..." A weak smile found its way on his maw. Her warmth seeping into him, fighting with the cold grasp of the rain and the coming of death. "I wish...i could have...been there for you...more..." His heart started to slow. His body growing number. "I...want you...to know...that...I've always...loved you..." He rasped. He had never stopped.
