Lioran;
The palace halls feel different. Quiet… but not in the way I like.
It's too quiet. Too still… Too large.
With everyone gone, the weight of the castle has been bearing down on me in ways I never thought it could.
I never thought I'd say I miss my brothers and Father, but I do.
When will they be back??
You really do not know what you have till you lose it, but I can't wallow in all that right now.
With everyone gone, BeastHeaven's affairs lay directly on my shoulders. Like this meeting I'm about to attend… on my own!
I rub the back of my neck as I make my way toward the council wing, the soft padding of my footsteps swallowed by the carpet.
Zethar left a few days ago… saying weeks makes it feel longer than I wish to acknowledge.
He left to help Zephan in Nagari… take care of Elien… who's now pregnant…
That's a thought I intend to avoid for as long as I can.
Even though I told Zethar I'd be fine… A fox left alone in a lion's den can still get bored.
