In the moments of silence that hung in the air around them she was able to really look at him. There was so much on the surface that some times it was hard for her to see through to who he was under it all. Once she peeled back the layers of old emotions that lingered in her mind about him and saw past the scars and wounds... it was possible for her to believe that he had been a lot better lately when he finally spoke to answer her question. Her eyes lingered on his face even when his eyes didn't quite meet hers. Physically Elias dwarfed her, but some part of her still felt so protective over him. There wasn't much she could do to keep attackers at bay, but maybe there could be a way for her to help him emotionally and mentally. Despite how their history together had begun she was still somehow able to see the good in his eyes.

His question made her expression grow thoughtful. She immediately knew what he was referring to. It was something that had been lingering in her mind for so long now as a constant, on going project. "I haven't forgotten my promise," she said after a moment of hesitation. She felt determined, but at the same time she wondered if it was a task that she had the skills to complete. "I'm going to find a way to help you." She paused again, her brows pulling together as she figured out how to say what she wanted to say. "Since the last time I saw you I've been studying and gathering every herb I can get my paws on. I'm pretty confident that I have some options to try and I've heard of a couple that I've yet to be able to find myself that could be options...

In her musing her gaze had drifted away from his, but as her words drifted off she pulled her eyes back from the ground to have them meet his again. "The only thing I can do is try. We can start with the ones that I'm more sure of and if they don't work then we'll try others. I just-" She cut off as a realization hit her and for a moment she was too stunned at her own thoughts to continue.

When she thought of love she thought of her parents who had been so dedicated to each other that even when they were separated by miles and time they were still able to rekindle whatever it was that drew them together in the first place. She thought of the sweet, lovey, sickeningly adorable dreams of what a couple should be. She was beginning to realize that wasn't what reality was. "I just don't want you to disappear again," she said softly, finally finishing her sentence.

She had to believe that fate had brought them together for a reason. Now that she thought back on it she truly had gained so much from when he attacked her. Her children were the most unexpected, but greatest gift she had ever received. She had been able to finally break away from Celestial and make her own life here in Lirim. She felt more confident and skilled than she ever had. She hadn't been able to help him then... but she could now.
