The Knight Greets Again (Midori)

[Lanji Romano]

Lanji stood in the training grounds wearing full-plate armor this time without his helmet which lay in the grass with a packed meal. A powerful broadsword was in his hand as he carefully swung it in slow and measured movements to the point to where one would call it graceful. The knight had been a tad lax in his training and had thus been training since the early morning light to keep himself in top physical condition. Truthfully Lanji was hoping to see Midori again his bag resting under a tree as he was practicing in the grass field. He swung his sword carefully and shifted the grip reversing the heavy blade in what was a textbook counter in swordplay. He gave a smile at how easily he was able to do it now.

He remembered the day when he first attempted the manuever with a blunted sword and sorely bruised his shoulder and hip in the process. Still right now he was focused on something else for the moment because he had to admit that he missed her. The little faerie who he had shared a calm and relaxing night with the other day during what was only known as prom night. He gave a soft smile remembering that night as he paused in his movements satisfied for the moment. With a small twirl and one final salute with the blade he placed it in the sheath with a steely hissing noise that he had long grown accustomed to. Tacet hooted softly from the branch that she sat on as she had merely been observing him the entire time.

This hast been a good practice still...I wish I had asked which room number she was in I sorely was hoping to have another day or eve with her.

Lanji thought to himself as he gazed at the sky for a brief moment his blonde hair rustling slightly in the wind.

"Tis a good day indeed," he said softly.

[Midori]

Midori broke through the trees and was almost not seen until she stepped out several feet from the forest itself. She was dressed in a soft brushed cotton skirt that was a dark black color pleated that seemed to fit her just right. Her torso a blue jean jacket and a green tshirt on. Her hair was pulled up in a pony tail as she looked around the area she spotted a familiar head of blonde hair.

She hadn't seen him since prom night and that had been nearly a week ago. She had been busy and she had a few things to take care of for her people hence why she had just come from the forest. She wore no shoes as she wasn't used to them in the least her feet where usually never cut by anything in the foresh much less anywhere else.

"The sun rises once more, good night." she said with a smile as she entered the training ground with that graceful stride.

She held out her arm and Tacet flew to it. She carefully ran her hand through Tacets soft chest feathers. She and Lanji had gotten along really well and the faerie entered the area closer to Lanji.

"Conditioning again on such a warm morning as this, fair knight?" she asked with a smile as she finally reached the area right in front of him.

[Lanji Romano]

Tacet had alerted him of her presence and he heard her comment turning and giving a smile at Midori. There she was looking for all purposes the innocent young girl who had captured his emotion and thoughts. He saw the way she was gently touching Tacet's chest feathers and gave a soft smile at the way Tacet hooted softly. He walked towards her since she was near the pack anyways they could share a meal out here as he walked into the shaded area of the tree. Truly it was going to be a good night since he had not forgotten what had happened a week ago how they had built a bond of trust and had steadily progressed on that night. Truly it wasn't the magic of dancing on the prom cruiser but, it had it's own unique memory.

"Good morrow to thee fair Midori. Yes tis a conditioning for myself as I wear full plate for when I battle thus must I train in it so I art able to move around in it during long hours. A trained knight must be able to treat armor like a second skin as I haft said before," Lanji said with a soft smile on his lips as he leaned forward and kissed the top of her forehead lightly as he stood there with her in the beautiful morning light. He noticed the way the her clothes fit her nicely as she had not been seen for these past several days. Still he knew that like himself, she had things that had to be taken care of as well. He had sensed regality in her before this dissapearance only confirmed this issue as he gave a gentle smile to her.

"The halls seemed desolat without thine cheerful smile lighting the way, would'st thou care to sit and dine with me? I was about to rest myself after training all morn," he admitted.

Tis good to see her again.

[Midori]

Midori smiled as he greeted her cheerfully. The way his face lit up the moment she came onto the scene made it all worth while. She had been taking care of a few things with her race but now she was back and she couldn't help but feel happy Lanji was the first one that she had met. It was amazing that he had been here training the moment she came back.

"Ahh, my heart stops when you share your smile." she chuckled softly as she let Tacet fly off to her own resting place.

No marks left in the young girls arm as she was much used to birds and knew how to protect herself. This particular jacket had a patch of leather sewn on the inside that allowed her to not have to worry about it. Midori blushed and smiled softly when he kissed her on the top of the head.

"I would indeed love to join you for a meal. I wouldn't want to intrude but if you are offering I would be a fool to decline." she said following him over to his pack. She smiled at him as she leaned against the tree that his things were under.

"And what, may I ask, has kept you busy during my absence?" she asked looking up at him with that soft smile.

[Lanji Romano]

There was just something about Midori that made him smile constantly as he watched her gently stroking Tacet's soft and beautiful feathers. It was nice to see Tacet and Fiat be at ease around someone other then himself or someone that had been sent by the Order. He watched Tacet take off and heard her adorable comment about his smile. It was nice to hear such soft words coming from her and she was indeed a very kind person to comment like that. He noted that there were no deep marks from Tacet's strong claws even though the owl wouldn't have applied much he figured that Midori had a protective arm leather sewn in the jacket. He smiled at the fact that she was prepared for things ahead of time so she didn't have to rely on others.

Dependability must first come upon oneself.

"T'would not be good to smile so often then I would not want thee to fall over from all the repeated heart stopppings," Lanji said with a mild attempt at humor as he walked with her back to where the back was and unbuckled his sword. He laid the heavy weapon on top of his shield and then sat down removing his gauntlets as he shook out his hair a bit more.

"Ah to occupy mine mind rather then look for thee I was recently delved into training myself. Thus I haft kept up to my usual cadre of physical conditionings and mental conditionings as well. For a Cross Defender must be trained in both mind and body in order to be effective," he said with a smile at her.

"Of course I missed thee hoping to pick up where we haft left off since that night still I can understand that thou wert busy," he said with a smile as he sat down and carefully leaned against the tree carefully unbuckling his armor as he talked to her. Again he was wearing linen clothes under the armor he'd just carry the armor with Fiat or put it back on later.

He opened the pack after nearly ten minutes of patiently removing his armor leaving him in white linens as he pulled her close and gave a smile at her.

"There now without mine armor I am mayhap more comfortable for thee," he said with a smile as he opened the pack revealed dried fruits, chilled pasta salad, and freshly sliced ham on flatbread.

[Midori]

Midori couldn't help but laugh at the joke he told about her heart stopping. She rarely expected him to be witty or comedic as uptight as he seemed to be so often. When he sat down she sat in front of him and began watching him carefully taking off his armor.

When it was all off she smiled as he pulled her close. She chuckled feeling good in his arms again. She hadn't seen Corsair since prom night, he had disappeared. She had thought about him for a while but she was moving on now. He hadn't shown up and now she wasn't going to wait for him.

She sat now in between his strong legs and against his chest as he pulled out the lunch. She smiled. This had to be her favorite place. She nuzzled into him.

"I was called home briefly. Only two days really but it probably seemed like longer to you because we didn't reunite for a few days before I left. There was a alpha male that was trying to gain two wives and had to be dealt with because a faerie mates for life. And so once mated you cannot mate again until your spouse dies.. and you had nothing to do with that death. Anyway, long story short, I had to go resolve the issue."

She took some of the dried fruit and began to munch on them slowly as she enjoyed the day and the company. She closed her eyes and savored the sweet fruit that was seeming to melt on her tongue as she chewed.

[Lanji Romano]

"As traditionally people mate for life if they respect the true meaning of the vows that art given in life. I can see where thine explanation is coming from and understand the need that they had in needing the presence of a capable mediator. Though thine strength is unknown to me you still strike me as a regal type and anyone thine summons would probably prove most troublesome for me in an honor duel. I am glad that thou were able to find a peaceful resolution to the troublesome situation. After all if a situation must begin or end in a violent standard then there will be factors of dissent and anger that would only shatter the temporary peace. My suspicions that thou were of noble or regal equivalency seem more comfirmed now," Lanji spoke his yarn sometimes one couldn't help but, speak many words.

Still he lightly touched Midori's hair gently running his fingers through it as he enjoyed her innocent presence once more one arm wrapped around her waist. He shifted his head and nuzzled into the top of hers as he kept her close to him. It was in his touch that he had obviously missed her as he lightly ran his fingers through her soft locks. It was always nice to touch her with those soft and generous touches. He shifted his hand and picked up a few bites of dried fruit and ate them calmly.

"I admit though that I still missed thee it seemed like an eternity without thine angelic-like voice ringing through my ears," he admitted with a smile at her as he leaned back comfortably letting her lean against him as he gazed at the training grounds. He wanted to speak and say something more intimate to her but, for now he was content.

"Perhaps next time one of us is called to handle a dispute the other should accompany so we are not lonesome?" he suggested.

[Midori]

Midori sat back in his arms and munched on the dried fruit he had provided for them. She closed her eyes as he began to speak. He must have missed her she couldn't remember him ever saying so many words at once since she had met him. Still it was nice to be missed and it was nice to feel his soft and innocent touches again. She sighed softly as he finished and she chuckled at his assumption.

"You are correct. I am royalty. I am Princess Midori of the Forest of Light." she told him softly.

He told her that he missed her and a bright smile crossed her face. She nuzzled back into him as his fingers played through her long green hair. It was long and she loved it. It was also well cared for. Her eyelashes were even green as well as her eyes. It helped her blend into the scenery of the forest better despite her pale skin. That tattoos symblolized her moving up and getting closer to taking the crown and not only that but it also symbolized her tribe and her triumphs.

"I think that is an excellent idea. For you to see the Forest of Light however, would be a first for a human. But as Princess I am allowed to bring that who I wish so long as they would not harm what already is." she explained.

"And I missed you, Lan. You're smile you're gentle ways. Your hand through my hair, I like that part." she chuckled softly as she reached up and fed him a dried peach peice.

"Do you have plans for this eve?" she asked softly as she looked up into his eyes.

[Lanji Romano]

"Ah I fear then that I must win thee with kindness and tender words rather then mine estate. For thou being royalty I am of only lower nobility. I would have to offer my abilities in other areas should we grow closer in our bond and our words. For now though I am content that we have the bond that we have now hoping that it may strength but, respecting the fact that thou may need space," Lanji said in his usual distinct and percise manner of wording. Never changing but, that was the quirk about him that was ingrained after a lifetime of training in the old ways of the knighthood. Lanji himself did not mind speaking in a manner that many found odd because archaic was always more poetic and not as rancorous.

Thank the light that we have another day.

Lanji murmured in his head as his fingers still went through her hair softly seeing that bright and beautiful smile that lit the way almost. He did note that the hair color seemed natural something that he would assume derived from her heritage. Her beautiful green eyes were like hidden pools that reflected the trees in their crystal waters. Tatoos were on her that Lanji did not understand as for as what they represented. He knew that some places used markings to represent honor and position but, as Midori had not told them what they represented he could only hazard guesses. His fingers running through the soft green hair as he listened to her positive response to his idea. He heard her saying that he would be the first to see if indeed they did go.

"Then I shalt be on my most prim and proper behavior following thine lead so I do not give offense to thine people. I will also follow the old saying 'observe without touch'," he said with a wary smile signifying that he was probably a bit troublesome in his youth with that sort of thing. He heard the fact that she had missed him as well and gave a gentle smile. Hearing her question he shook his head no as he opened the pasta salad and gave her a bite before eating a bite himself.

"Nay I have no plans tonight so I am open to any suggestions that thou might have," he said with a smile. "I was hoping by keeping my schedule as open as possible I would have more opportunities to spend more time with thee."

[Midori]

Midori leaned against her knight as he threaded his fingers through her hair. It was enough to lull her to sleep right here. She would have to make a special night of just them together and she knew exactly the place that she wanted to take him. When he told her that he had no plans for the night she smiled softly knowing that maybe tonight would be a good night for them to go.

"As for touching, you may touch, but you cannot bring anything that was not gifted to you out of the realm. Aside from that there may be some prejudices you may face as a result of being human for even the faerie are not free of that flaw." she smiled softly.

She thought about that secret place that she had only showed Corsair but he was gone. Gone and he had not left her even a notice. She assumed that he had gotten mad at her because of her actions on prom night and had decided to leave. Well, it was lucky for her then that she hadn't given into pressure.

"I would, sir knight, like to take you out tonight then. I would like to take you to a special place that is much like my home. A place that is close to my heart and one I would like to share with you because you are so important to me. Would you be willing to stay the night outside? I will take care of all the arrangements." she promised as she looked up into his beautiful eyes and ran her own hand through his hair.

"Would you like to go?"

[Lanji Romano]

A smile to match the smile of the innocent faerie that sat in his lap he always felt more light-hearted around her no matter what his current mood was it always seemed to be stuck in happy with Midori. Maybe it was because that they both didn't feel pressured in this sort of thing. Maybe it was because they both respected each other and didn't spring into action on the first day so to speak. Or maybe just maybe it was that night nearly a week ago when he felt the most satisfied feeling in the world of holding Midori close to him and protectively as he slept. Whatever the reason Lanji gave an eager smile at her offer to take her with him to a place that was special to her. A place that was close to her heart and meant something to her and that should be taken with seriousness and care.

"I admit that nobody on this plane of exsistance haft developed the saintliness or resistance to moral flaws that the almighty himself haft done ever so gracefully. Moral perfection no matter how we look at it shalt always be out of our grasp. Perhaps it is still retribution for what has happened in ages past but, we simply must strive to be the best individuals that we can be. This is the duty of people who show not only morality and understanding nay it also includes those with the ability to show compassion. This is something that I believe if taken seriously and actually given dedication to the world would become a much more better place," Lanji admitted sharing one of his deep thoughts with her many not expecting knights to be scholars yet here she was.

Yet he smiled.

Another of those soft smiles as he thought of her offer.

"I would be most honored nay excited to go with thee Midori to the place that thou cherishes and I will cherish it as equally as thou. Though..." he felt her meek little hand run through his hair and he looked down at her with a soft smile his eyes holding hers. Such beautiful forest green eyes that he always seemed lost in thier infinate depths.

"Perhaps I should make a confession," he said with a small blush showing on his cheeks. The mighty knight himself showing that he had feelings as well and he was normal like everything else. Just raised differently and spoke differently much like one would tolerate another with a strange accent.

"I must confess Midori that there is another reason that I am so pleased to go with thee not only on a trip with thee but, also on a beautiful eve where you art sharing a place special to thee. I admit that while duty requires me to defend others I defended you for more then that wanting to hold and cherish thee against everything else. Mayhap it sounds cliche but, I felt something for thee before I even knew thy name. When thou were gone on thine duties I found myself distracted many a time thinking of thine soft smile and bedazzling words and innocence." The knight admitted as he touched her gently for a moment as he held her gaze even more.

"I know I am only of low-ranked nobility and have a short and mortal human life-span but, I confess Midori of the Forest Light..." he paused.

"That I believe I am falling for thee and would like to see where it goes if thou art willing." he said in a soft and tender voice to her.

[Midori]

Midori sat in the wonderful and comforting arms of her knight. Her very own. At least it seemed that way lately when he seemed to light up just when she walked by or when she had come back the smile on his face told her so many things. But sitting here like this in the middle of the training ground sharing lunch and thoughts of the last few days that had seperated them made her smile. The way he touched her. The way he looked at her. Even Corsair had not had that look in his eyes when he looked down at the little faerie. Midori found herself relaxing more and more with the knight since that night after prom when he held her close after the worst possible experience.

The gentle way he had wrapped her up in his strong arms that she knew could and would protect her any day she needed him to. It was that night that he had become 'her knight' and that night that she would never forget no matter how long she lived. That dance had been the best in her life there wearing nothing but his shirt and dancing with him he never once tried a thing. Never once. She smiled as he spoke. She was getting used to the way he used language. Different than anyone she had ever met yet once she got used to it she really didn't notice the difference at all.

"You know what? I would not want to be perfect. Not in the least. Because I fell that it is the little quirks that make everyone so interesting. If everyone was perfect, sure there would be a lot less problems and evil in the world but is it not that evil that makes the good things in life so worth while?" she asked softly in her own sweet voice in regards to his speech on flawlessness. Showing that faerie's too had a mind.

She leaned against him again and closed her eyes. She wasn't very hungry at the moment. Just enjoying the time she was spending with Lanji. She enjoyed his scent most of all. Even right now where he had been sweating from his work out he smelled heavenly. He had a scent to him that reminded her of the rain in the forest. She couldn't explain why but when the rain came down and stirred up the dust and debris from the plants and undergrowth that filled the air with that scent of cleanliness but also that scent of mixed elements. It was that scent that Lanji carried with him and as she placed her nose next to his neck she just enjoyed the sweet honey like scent that he gave to her.

He told her that he had a confession and her eyes opened softly. She listened waiting for this grave news. For the way he said it and blushed she feared that perhaps he already had a woman at his side. If that was the case then Midori would leave him. Not forever but she would not stay close. For she was of a different race and many people found that to be odd in a way. She closed her eyes again when he told her that he wanted to go and was happy about it but then he began to confess. Confess that from the moment he had seen her at the prom crying that he had opened his heart to her. That he had wanted to do more than protect and defend but to know her and be with her. She blushed softly as he continued and she lay there quietly listening to his eloquent words. He had even missed her desperatly it seemed, to take him away from his work, when she was gone. She smiled softly at that and nuzzled into his neck even more.

But it was the last part that truly caught her attention. There completely relaxed in his arms his legs on either side of her small body she lay against him just listening and resting. He began to say that he was not noble enough, as if that mattered, but then he used her full name and her pointed ears perked up a bit. The five emerald studs seemed to glisten in the sunlight as her ear tuned in to listen to him even more. Her eyes shot open. He was falling for her? A strange little faerie from the forest. Her? She blushed deeply and nuzzled into his neck trying to hide the blush.

For several minutes there was silence and she knew it would be awkward but she was trying to gather her thoughts before she spoke. It was hard to do thus when she had totally been caught off guard. Some might say she shoud have known the signs were in front of her the whole time and now that he had said something she could see them. Yet still, it had come as a shock. She smiled softly as she moved back and touched his face her green eyes looking deep into his blue ones. Before she said anything she leaned in. Softly in that gentle manner they had with each other she kissed him with all the passion and soft feelings that she could send through a kiss. She held the soft kiss for several moments before gently breaking it and looking into his eyes with a soft smile.

"I admit, my dearest knight, that I have completely fallen for you. For you make my day brighter no matter the status of the sun. You are my stars at night and my lovely moon that guides me through the darkness. A stream could sound so sweeter than the voice in which you carry. My fairest knight, I would be honored if we gave ourselves a chance to bond." she said softly her soft green eyes looked right up into his beautiful orbs a soft smile on her face.

[Lanji Romano]

Those moments of silence were the toughest vigilance that Lanji ever had to endure. Silence was something that he was not good at dealing with at times but, knew that it had to be done. Each moment seemed to trickle by like a full minute as Lanji head nothing by silence from Midori at the moment. It was unsettling to him. Never before had he heard Midori without a quick comeback to any words he had said and he wondered briefly if he had just ruined thier friendship. A bit of paranoia settling in as all this silence was starting to become nerve-racking. Did he do the right thing with admitting his feelings for her? Was it the course that he was truly supposed to take? Silence gnawed at him for those few minutes as he watched and waited for a few moments unsure how to break it. It was a relief when she moved again.

Her blush and her neck nuzzling was something tha twas cute yet at the same time he wanted to know more. Did she return such feelings or was everything he did a waste of her time? He didn't have to consider those two questions for long as he when he not only gazed into those beautiful emerald depths known as her eyes; yet also finding his lips connected with hers. They were sharing a kiss. A sweet and passionate kiss that wasn't quite as innocent yet it was just as pure. It was heartfelt and his arms tightened alittle more to Midori. Clutching her more and more as he returned each feeling. Each feeling she gave he returned with equal amount his arms holding her. Cherishing her. She was willing to give him of all people a chance. God must have truly been smiling on this moment in order for her to consider him. After all it seemed as if she was the perfect woman and he was only a low-ranked nobleman who was also a knight.

Didn't compare right?

Yet here they were sharing a kiss both showing thier passionate feelings for one another. It was something that could make a person giddy at times. What would seem like a lifetime to others was only a few moments as Midori broke the hypnotic kiss. Then she spoke and his heart glowed with the warmth of happyness. Her knight in protecting her in everything and anything. Her light in providing her warmth and comfort when she needed it. Her moonlight in giving her a guiding hand even in the worst of times. Her starlight in giving her something to believe in and wish upon. And her stream providing a soothing sound that could lull her to sleep or calm at anytime. Each description made his heart swell with joy and pride at the same time. Joy that she accepted and was willing to give him a chance. Pride that he was already so important to her.

Truly God works in mysterious ways but, his faithful art happy when thier reward haft come.

He kissed her forehead lightly his eyes watering from the overjoyed feeling of her accepting him. There was no greater feeling in the world that anyone else could give then Midori. The feeling to take on the entire world and still being able to win. An idealed immortality of the mind.

"I am glad," he whispered to her.

"Glad that thou art willing to give me a chance. I swear on my honor and my family's honor for the past ten generations that I will not dissapoint thee. I will repeatedly strive to prove myself worthy of thine love be it fighting for thee, being with thee, or loving thee. I will strive to master all three until not even an angel can rival those traits in thine eyes," he said gently in a convicted voice and although his eyes were watered it was obvious how happy he was. He leaned forward giving her a brief chaste kiss on the lips again. There was just something about the moment you didn't want to break as he ran his fingers down her cheek gently.

"When did'st thou wish to leave for tonight?"

[Midori]

The tears that welled in his eyes were like crystalline diamonds. Each so pure so perfect. The fire alone in them was enough to blind someone. She smiled softly as she stroked his cheek. Never in her life had she seen one person cry for such a reason. But it touched her in a way that she wanted to just reach out and carress his very soul.

The sunlight filtered down through the leaves in the tree above them. He still held her tightly and for all the world she never wanted him to let go. As the sun shone through the leaves it cast down shadows and light spots upon him making his hair glow in some places. He was near ethereal at times when the light hit him just right. He was a knight for the church but somehow in her eyes he was also an angel in disguise.

She had heard many times of stories about angels. The people that seemed to be there right when you needed them helping to guide you on your way. Giving you hope when you were sure that none was left and giving you that last little smile before your day just made you snap. It was then that you did realize that a higher being just might bet there. Watching over you like a mother or father. Making sure to pick you up when you skinned your knee. There with a smile and a caress to chase the dark nightmares away. That was what The Father was there for. And he had sent her Lanji.

He told her of his commitment and she smiled. She placed her finger on his lips so he wouldn't continue and shook her head.

"I know of your commitment. You do not have to repeat. My silly knight, for I know what we are walking into because we face it together." she said.

Dropping her finger from his lips with enough pressure to make his bottom lip come out just a little she giggled at the cute noise it made when it snapped back up to meet his upper lip.

"Well, how about two hours after we leave. That will give me enough time to change, and get things together. Bring a change of clothes and whatever you sleep in because we're spending the night. Also bring a pillow. I'll take care of the rest." she said softly as she leaned in and kissed him gently letting it last for a moment before she pulled back.

"Lord only knows, my dear Lan, how truly wonderful it is to see you again. Shall we part now so that our reunion in two hours time will be that much sweeter?" she asked softly as she ran her fingertips through his hair.

[Lanji Romano]

There are times in a person's existance when you feel that heaven itself was blessing the oment of life and intimacy. In that perfect moment where nothing could ever go wrong and everything in the world was at peace. That feeling of serenity and contentment that you would only experiance a few times in your lifetime. It was in this moment the moment that he was holding the sweet little Midori that he felt this. That Lanji felt a moment of serenity and inner peace tha the had never felt before and doubted that he could ever experiance again without her. There they were in such an innocent position as they spoke and gave confessions to one another. It was perfect in this moment. He would give up quite a bit to stay in this moment with her as they stared into each other's eyes.

She rewarded his words and emotion with a beautiful smile that was all her own. A soft and natural smile that you wanted to hide from the world and keep close to your heart. He was feeling that his heartbeat pulsing in his chest each ba-bump beating for her and her alone. Her delicate and soft fingers caressing his cheek in a loving touch that made him relax even more. He felt so relaxed and so happy with her there was no doubt in his mind that she was the one. That she was the one that would be able to forever aide his soul in standing for the light. That she would be the one that he would go to when doubt plagued his mind and fear's icy grip snaked his way in. For her he would taken on the Devil himself in titanic battle if he felt there was even an inkling in the matter of saving her or helping her. Standing for her as he would stand for God.

She was Midori. She was his heart now.

Her fingers were on his lips now silencing him for now as she shook her head and gave him a response. Silly she called him it made him smile ruefully. His lower lip hitting his upper one he cock a brow at but, said nothing as he held her. Again they kissed after she spoke of the eve's preparations and he gave a nod at her saying that he understood. She would take care of the night he was only to bring himself and the minor necessairies. Still he had returned that sweet kiss once again letting emotion show. The emotion that he had for her that thundered through his very soul. The showed him that yes indeed their was a heaven on Earth and he was experiancing it with this beautiful woman.

"Then for now we shalt be apart for two hours I shalt be without thee and thou will be without me. However, after that two hours we shalt once again be overjoyed in holding each other once more and experiancing a night that is special." He stood and Fiat calm on silent hooves he reluctently letting go and put his things on the back even his armor went into a larger pack. Kissing Midori's forehead gently he smiled at her.

"Until then I shalt look forward to the later meeting," He said with a salute as he easily got into the saddle though he swept Midori into his arms Fiat letting out a whiney and taking them to the grounds. Just because they were departing didn't mean he could take her away in style.
