In Return

Obi was kind and sweet as he gently whisked away her free flowing tears. She missed Archon and she yearned to be back in the arms of her husband. Deathbelle tried to linger in the moments they had together. The ceremony at sunrise, their last night together in this realm, their first night together. A part of her didn’t want to move on. She wanted to linger in the past and ignore the gaping hole in her heart. She wanted her husband back.

His words were said with conviction, enough to begin to pull her away from the past. She who ascended to godhood from her mortal self. Her body would die, but she could look forward to the rest of eternity with Archon. First she had her own purposes to fulfill here. ”It certainly doesn’t feel like it.” She offered quietly, feeling freedom to talk about her weaknesses here in front of Archon’s closest companion. She sighed heavily, lilac gaze shifting to the sky with its ash and smoke. The last of Archon’s physical presence. He was one with the volcano. ”Why must I be tested in this way? Why did he have to return?” Tears continued to fall as she lamented the unfairness of it all.
