He pulls her close and she melds into him. It feels as though they'd never parted. He had never died and she had never been without him. Except he had, she had, and everything they had no longer existed. Even their children, gone.
The smile on her face softens as he pulls away and he speaks of the present, of them. She wanted nothing more than to pick up right where they had left off but she knows things could never be exactly as they were.
Her golden flecked eyes shy away as she thinks of what he says. She then thinks of her children, of her home, of Jack, Amen and all she has created for herself over the last couple years. It wasn't anything grand, but it was hers.
So, she smiles and speaks kindly, “I am glad you are back Rou, truly I am, but... it's not that simple, for you and I. Not anymore. So much has happened since you've been gone…” A sadness tugs at her heart as she looks to him once more, “I must be getting back home to the Dale. Perhaps we can meet again soon and catch up.” She phrases it as a question, but it is a hopeful statement, one that rides on many variables. Too many to speak of at this given moment in time.
The gown of feathers on her back pull in tight against her body as she turns to the north. A single tear wells in her eyes as she leaves him standing there... Alone.
Not all that glitters is gold
