[QUOTE="Lorthanoth, post: 3892752, member: 3023"] A Daughter's Farewell. Alistia meets her parents after the line-ups; they ask her where she was and which line she signed up for. They didn't see her at the re-building group? She tells them which group she volunteered for. There is a moment of silence, of shock. "No." says her mother quietly, "No, no. Tell her no. Kereos." she says to her husband. Father gets up from his chair and after a pause says, "Alistia, we love you. Why would you do something like this?" [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"Because.. because I have to. I know with all my heart that this is what the spirits want me to do. I can't talk to [B]them[/B], but I can almost hear them talking to [B]me[/B]"[/COLOR] she replies with unaccustomed seriousness. "I haven't been able to tell you what to do since you since you were 10," he says wryly, "Now I wonder who you get that from?" he adds with affection, looking at his wife. "We can't stop you, so I won't make this harder than it needs to be. Go with my blessing, my daughter. Spirits guide you." They hug. All three. For perhaps the last time. Later on, as Alistia starts packing a bag of supplies, her brothers Oraon and Kemlos drop by the house; Oraon has signed up for the re-building and Kemlos is finishing training to be a hunter. "So, Ali, I knew you were crazy, but not this crazy." says big Oraon with an odd catch in his voice. Kemlos carries with him his hunting club, which has served him well many times. It is a fine piece of work, elegantly crafted. He says hesitantly, "Ali... I... you should take this." He presents the weapon to her. "Go on, I can get another. You might need it. I hope not... but... Be careful." [URL=http://a248.e.akamai.net/f/248/5462/2h/www.africa2u.com/images/50y0w9q.jpg]Kemlos' club[/URL] Oraon regards his sister with eyes that swell with tears he cannot bear to shed. "I was meant to look out for you; hope I taught you enough about giving as good as you get." He gives her a light tap with his great fist on her shoulder. [/QUOTE]
