[QUOTE="Deskjob, post: 5213137, member: 84205"] [b]Marko, Defense of a Castle[/b] [B]Elsewhere...[/B] The window was left open tonight. It's breeze filtered into the room and chilled the sweat on Marko's brow. He lay shuddering on his cot as the visions of her ghost swept through his troubled mind. He never slept well anymore. Not since her passing. He awoke with a start and stilled his heart's rapid pace. The bed was wet with his fears and he arose quickly, only to sit still for many moments. He could still see her face in his dreams. She was still so beautiful, even in her wake-less slumber. Marko's thin fingers traced his forehead as he sighed deeply. Would he never sleep well again? Would he blame himself forever for her passing? When no answer came he stood by the window. His vision pierced the darkness and he saw the workmen's camp. The fires remained dimly lit and men still threaded the preparations for war. Marko was not the only restless warrior this night. But sleep would come. It must. Tomorrow was a day needing of a full rest. Marko returned to his cot and pressed his forearm over his eyes. He let the darkness return him to his wife's embrace. Her arms were cold and her smile was chill as ice. As frozen as his memory of her. It was a restless night. [/QUOTE]
