★ - For our muses to go stargazing together.
“–So, yer sayin’ tha’ them there stars are pas’ heroes o’ Nohr? An’ tha Dusk Dragon too?” {/Prince Leon wanted to step out of the castle for a while. So what better thing to do than to sit and look upon the stars? Nicole always thought they were pretty and back in her homeland, they had significant meanings too. But she never knew that they meant anything else to someone not part of the island.
From her mentor, back to the sky she looks up at them. In all honesty, she couldn’t see the figures he had been pointing out to her. All she could continue to see, was what she had been trained to see in the star charts and patterns. It was believed that that’s where her power had come from. For as long as there were stars and lights in the sky, they could draw forth cosmic energy. Or some sort of mumbo jumbo like that. It didn’t make sense to her then, and it still doesn’t make sense to her now. All she can do is just pick out the patterns and possibly tell him when the next surge of energy should come for mages of all kinds.
Would he be interested in that? It was…nothing but boring book facts. And while he was a stickler for studying and history, surely he wanted to talk about his heroes more than anything. Maybe if he asks her what she sees, she’ll point them out. For now, she’s nodding and just staring. The big stars, the little ones, and the ones that shone brighter than the rest.
Leaning back on the bench, she glanced over at Leon again who had still been staring skyward. It was nice seeing him looking so relaxed and so content. Fresh air was doing wonders for him. Maybe they should do this more often. With a soft exhale, she just smiles. It was nice that he wanted to share so much of their history with her. Was this because of her request to stay in Nohr that he was indulging her more? Or did he just truly like their history more than anything? After all, those were his favorite kinds of books to read.
If she stayed...maybe she could read them with him sometime! It would be nice. Looking back up to the stars once more, she clasps her hands together in her lap.}
