Reforging Destiny

The stretch of time between when the clue was given and when the red and black form of the commander finally slipped through the door had the trio of Avacyn's companions beginning to grow anxious, but eventually he passed what was likely the most cryptic and difficult of the clues. The three of them were clearly pleased by the development, ruffling their feathers with excitement and giving happy clicks of their beaks. Even though they wanted this challenge to truly be a challenge, they also wanted him to succeed on Avacyn's behalf. "Good. I was growing nervous, young Commander," Cogitare replied with his bird-like laughter. "This last clue should be an easy one, yes? Your clue is 'return to the place of love's first kiss'." If a raven could grin he certainly would have been as he added, "If you don't remember where your first kiss was then I don't think we can be of any more help to you!"

Of course the gift that Saracyn was to take from her as part of the ceremony was a must, but the sheer robe with tiny, sparkling gemstones around its hems was certainly out of her comfort zone. She just hoped Saracyn liked it. She stood up just long enough to toss another piece of wood onto the fire before she returned to the pile of furs she had been waiting on, sighing softly as she watched the sky through the entrance of the alcove she was waiting in, hoping to herself that she hadn't gone too far with her cryptic clues.
