Never Meant To Hurt You

Surging panic rose up within the small woman as they arrived at the river that marked the border to Abaven lands. Haiku's cheery words did little to alleviate the raging anxiety within her. Bowen gave her head a shake, tears already pooling in emerald eyes. "I'm so sorry," she said again for the millionth time. "I never wanted to hurt you, Hero." She hadn't. There was no way that Bowen could foresee the turn of events that would pull her wholly and completely into the world that was Artorias. The woman was slightly obsessive over her brother. It wasn't fair to Haiku. Maybe if Bowen had been a normal fae, but she wasn't. Not by a long shot.

"I..." she began, ears slicking back for a moment, "Do you... want me to walk you in or do you just want me to go?" She would leave it up to him. If it would be easier to just part ways here, then she would make the journey back to The Hallows alone and with haste. If he wanted her to stay with him while he acclimated, she would do that as well.
