░░░░░░ ☾ nesta stares at her for a handful of heartbeats, as if making up her mind on whether or not to bother. they’ve both been through enough; that much’s for sure. “it’s not a burden.” she finally speaks up. “i’m not going to lock myself away because i’ve maxed out my quota of things to go through. at least give me something to do.” it’s not a request.

                    It had been a difficult journey. Travel through the portals Wyrd was exhausting, almost like using all the magic in her blood. Tired, Lysandra spent the first few days recovering, learning about the world that stretched around her. A city. So bright, cheerful and full of life as she had never seen before. Sometimes she found herself smiling as imagined how Aelin and the others would like it. He thought how easy she’d be to get used to that place --- thoughts always followed a clash of reality. She was not there for tourism. She had a goal.

                    It was easy to leave the ears slightly pointed and subtly mask the smell - even if the latter did not disappear completely. The shapeshifter camouflaged herself as she could, long enough for her body to recover from the trip; enough to learn what she could about the place, the people who lived there. The brunette did what she knew best: watched and learned and kept to herself.

                    Lysandra kept her disguise until the time was right. Until that moment.

                    The hostess's gray eyes did not affect Lys - not even a shrug. She held her chin up, her hands crossed casually in front of her body as dark hair fell down her shoulders into the dark cloak. She took a breath after speaking for almost half an hour. She had told the story: Erawan, Aelin, why she was there and emphasized the part of hurting those people was not in their interest. She did not have to act or pretend at any moment --- and she wanted the fae to see that. Her sincerity.

                    Maybe her help on the day of the attack of these creatures had reached the ears of the woman.

                    “------ And that's how I got here. After finding one of your --- She gestured vaguely with one hand to behind her, where a brute with beautiful wings had left them alone. --- friends and be introduced to you.”

     Dorian had never felt so useless in his life. He’d been stuck on a ship with cranky immortals and his every move watched— as if he were going to explode only to leave said immortals and be followed by Aedion. As if he needed a damn babysitter. Aelin had chosen Aedion above all of them and gods he was yearning for freedom or at least a chance to breathe without Aedion breathing down his neck or glaring at him. Dorian understood the generals caution when it came to himself, but at the same time he wondered why it bothered Aedion so since they had bigger problems to worry about.

      His magic hummed in his veins begging to be let free. He’d just started learning to control it more thanks to Rowan’s lessons and everyday he learned something new about his magic. It was has if it had no limits, but as much as he would love to test that theory out, Rowan had ingrained it into his skull that there were limits and it wasn’t wise to burn himself out. Dorian obliged but knew the reason why. They needed him to win this war. Rowan himself had said his magic could be the tipping point on whether they win or lose. Yet everyday he grew to want to wipe the world clean, start over and he could if he really wanted to.

     His magic... another thing that puzzled him was that Rowan had never encountered anything like it. He’d never forget those moments when it was just him and the demon that lived inside him, taunting him about his true heritage. ‘You’re not from this world, are you princeling?’ Now he realized the demon was curious and not taunting him. Now he wondered if he wasn’t the King of Ardalan’s son and his parents his true parents were out there somewhere. Deep down inside he wished for it to be true. He wondered what it would have been like to have people who loved him. He wondered if they too did magic.

     But it did no good for Dorian to dwell on the past and things that could have happened. He had a war to fight against not one but two armies, two powerful creatures in their own right. He had to worry about not dying before he could rebuild his fractured kingdom.

     His head snaps up as he hears the snap of twigs nearby. His pulse quickened as frost coated the tree and the ground behind him. It didn’t sound like one of those beasts that Erawan had sent after them, no these were footsteps, and he could feel the magic radiating from their bones. Never go off alone, Aelin had demanded and yet here he was in the woods with a magical being unlike any he had encountered, and it frightened Dorian. It frightened him that their magic called out to his own, intertwining with his as if he knew him.

     “Show yourself.”

░░░░░░ ☾ rhys doesn’t like the shadows inside of him, the ones that taste like dust and dirt and ash. he doesn’t like pouring them into people’s hands because they are his burden to bear. it’s a wonder his back doesn’t break from all the things he has to carry.

he closes his eyes; it’s one of those days.

“dare i suggest we just lie here for all eternity?”

     “Why? Why is it so important that I train with an Illyrian? If father wants me trained so badly, why doesn’t he do it himself.” Dorian huffs and crosses his arms. He hated when his parents used that against them. It would make them so happy... did they care what made him happy?

░░░░░░ ☾ the look nesta shoots her sister is entirely unimpressed. “wanting to save the world doesn’t mean you have an excuse to be stupid. i’d rather stay here and find another way than go see those stuck up, stupid queens again.” hell, she’d rather train with cassian than even look in their general direction.
