[Journal] ::Dark Dreams::
The dream began with me crying over his form, the body of my former love Oldaric, lax and dying in my arms. I wanted nothing but to heal all his wounds but the elements left me. The single thing I wanted from them and they could not give it.
I watched as his life slipped past my fingers and even my quiet lips as they murmured without speech, his hand rose to touch but fell to his chest. As he died in my arms I cried. When all the water was drawn from my form after what seemed like hours of crying every ounce of energy I had, I wiped them away only to look down and see Senric in my arms.
His smile soft and tired; hands reaching up to frame my face as they trail bloody splotches upon my cheeks. Nestled between those stained hands tears sprang to my features. I knew something was wrong. I felt it inside my breaking heart.
I cared for nothing, then, but the one in my arms. My heart skipped a beat and my ears rang suddenly. I could not hear what he said to me and when his lips stopped moving entirely the body I held grew instantly cold. Panic set in as I tried to do the same; to heal the wounds of my fallen love.
But I couldn’t...
I failed him. I failed them all and no faux smile or happy outlook will change the fact that I should have been there for them. I should have been more alert, more helpful, more available to be called. I should have been with them...
When my dark thoughts drifted from my mind there was no life left in this cold body I held in my arms. I cried then, I bellowed, and I spoke obscenities to the spirits and gods that must surely be laughing at me. It’s then I felt the warmth of something beside me and I look over to see a bright shining light; a wisp of energy hovering at my side. I let the body in my arms go with reluctance, the great dark oozing at my feet took the lax form from my hands as I turned towards this blinding energy beside me. It felt warm. It felt soft. It... disappeared.
With a jolt I awoke with a heavy draw of breath and my arms tightly circled around Senric’s form. I.. I wanted to cry... and I did. I drew him up against me as I caught my breath and regained my senses; hiding my tears from my hearts desire. Would I fail him.. too?...
Whoever rules the world of dreams is a cruel.. cruel god.
