I had always been known to be hasty. I still remember the days long past where my father would claim as he made warm gestures after setting me delicatly, as if my lacking full demon citizenship labled me as fragile, his little "Hasty Dreamer". Now this did not inquire precisely that I was fast to dream but more fast to act upon my wishes of being a dreamer. It had never made sense to me until this point.
That day in the woods, where I abandoned a friend and embraced a stranger's grace, I had been hasty. I had lived up to the title lovingly given by a long lost loved one, and it tasted bitter in my mouth.
I don't know where I am, just that I had wandered away from the rest, searching. I have to find Nameri now for I fear I have dealt him a great terror. Even now I fear him frozen within the terror of the child's clutches, that is, if my fear is in fact true.
As I sat there discussing odd and unnotable topics the sentence of the little girl played over and over upon my mind. "You will soon know..." She has whispered it sadly but with a twist of her mouth, a flick of a muscle, forming a sad and knowing smile. I had also forgotten another thing she had mentioned before, "Things abandoned are the most valued treasures." I thought nothing of it at the time since I had not left anything of value in the forest that I would miss. Nothing except a friend.
Now I search for them both. The small girl with her flowing silver hair and deep sober eyes, always watching wraith-like of the world surround her and my dear enemy made friend with his hacked grey locks and deep crimson eyes. When we had finished our quarrels and agreed to friendship terms, I had never thought he would become this dear, something I would regret letting go. He made my life a challenge, and I had given him away.
She wants to take him from me... she might as well take my soul. She can't have him nor any other, I won't let her. I have to find them... I have to prove my fear wrong or, in case of failure of the first, safe what I can of the friendship I had forsaken.
But rest must come before I search further. So as I rest I'll endure the torment of dreams where treasures are ripped from my grasp. I just hope the small scattered trees can provide enough solice to calm my frozen hope.
