Diplomatic Immunity--Preface: Vasha's Discovery, Part II

[Rystil Arden]

"He's not ready to see anyone yet...Lhyzra told me that he wouldn't be, even if it worked, but he is back...I'm just glad that nobody died...And that you were able to bring your father back."

 

[Bront]

"I want to be the first person to see him when he's ready. Just in case. I think it will be easier seeing me than Alyz."

"What's wrong with him though? Why the wait? Is he resting?"

"I hope Zythryd isn't too worried about me..."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Resting...you could say that, I guess. I'm sure Lhyzra knows exactly what is going on, so you should talk to her when she awakens."

"Zythryd? I don't really know. I try to steer clear of the man..."

 

[Bront]

"You should try to get to know him Soul Sister. He's suspicious, and rightfully so given what he went though, but he's promised me he'd try to be nice about vocalizing things. The only way he'll learn to trust is to get to know you and Alyz."

"Soul Sister, can you help me to a tub? If I can fill it... I can rest better there."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Not until he apologises to Lhyzra, Soul Sister, and to me. He made me cry...but I went back to my room to cry alone..."

"Sure, let me carry you to your bath, Soul Sister."

*Louteah picks Vasha up gently, stroking her sore body comfortingly as she lifts it, carrying the Nymph slowly over from the bed and into the empty bath and setting her down inside ever-so-gently while still cradling her in her arms, giving Vasha a kiss on the cheek, as tears come to her eyes.*

"I was afraid I had lost you, Soul Sister. You and Alyz both...You were so pale..."

 

[Bront]

"I'm sorry he hurt you Soul Sister. I'll speak with him. Things have been... tense, and it's a shame so many people were hurt."

"Soul Sister, you'll never lose me, for our love keeps us togeather always, even though death. You may mourn my body, but my spirit will always be here for you Soul Sister." Vasha says as she puts her hand over Louteah's heart weakly.

Vasha strains to fill the tub with water, hoping the natural spring water will help heal her.

Assuming she does... "This is the power of my bond with water Sister. Stay with me, for I am glad for your company, but I shall be whole shortly."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"I will be here for you, Soul Sister...For as long as you need me."

*As Louteah removes their clothes, Vasha barely manages the spell, perhaps aided by her recent exposure to the energies of the Jhyram Arris in the ritual, and sweet soothing spring water rushes down along her body, making her shiver with cold and pleasure both as it begins to fill the tub, giving her enough energy to summon up more water until the tub is full and Vasha begins to experience the refreshing pleasure of symbiosis.*

 

[Bront]

Vasha smiles warmly and holds her Soul Sister's hand, obviously already a bit more energized by the water. "Thank you Soul Sister."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"What happened in there? Alyz told me that no matter what I heard, I wasn't to enter under any circumstances until seven hours had passed...I heard screams, and explosions, and howling, and..."

 

[Bront]

"We chanted, and channeled, and mixed some of my blood with some other stuff to help call him, and then, I called out to him... and ... i think I heard him answer. He still remembers me... still loves me..." Vasha pauses for a bit... "Seven hours? That's how much time has passed?"
