Diplomatic Immunity--Preface: Vasha's Discovery

[Rystil Arden]

*Louteah holds Vasha in her arms, cradling her like a treasured child, cuddling against her for a long time, savouring the moment and helping Vasha do so as well until it has passed.*

 

[Bront]

Vasha smiles at Louteah "You're still not ready, I understand. Thank you dear Sister."

Once Vasha comes down just a bit, the helps (barely) Louteah move Alyz to her bedroom. Vasha grabs her restfull, calming blanket, and brings it to Alyz. Vasha curls up with Alyz under the blanket, and drifts off as well, cradling Alyz in her arms.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Vasha awakens first, with Alyz still exhausted and asleep in Vasha's arms, although as they've slept, Alyz has curled her arms around Vasha and is cuddling close against the Naiad's soft skin.*

*As Vasha stirs, Alyz continues to cuddle against her, nuzzling her face against Vasha's chest.*

"Mmm...Marrik..." Alyz mutters softly and with deep affection, still asleep as she does.

 

[Bront]

Vasha smiles, knowing full well that Alyz was likely her father's lover at one point. That only makes her feel closer to Alyz. She gives Alyz a tender kiss and allows her to enjoy her nuzzling and dream.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*After a little while, Alyz's eyes flutter open and as she sees her position and Vasha there before her, she flushes crimson.*

"Err...uhhh, I'm sorry...Did I?--Where did...wait I remember, we did it!"

 

[Bront]

Vasha nods. "You shared love with my father. Do not be ashamed, it only makes me feel closer to you dear Sister. You would have done him proud."

She gives Alyz a tender kiss.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Alyz shakes her head, a little tear coming to her eye.*

"No...he and I...we never did. I loved him, but my beauty is no match for Ashana's..."

 

[Bront]

"Your beauty is your own, and need not hold up to any woman. And you did share love with him, in your own way. Through me."

Vasha holds Alyz close in her arms and smiles, looking into her eyes.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"I guess so...but never with Marrik himself," Alyz looks away, her eyes shimmery with a glint of wetness.

 

[Bront]

"I'm sure he knew you loved him, and just as Louteah said he smiled down on me, he smiles down on you too, for you honor him by continuing his work."

Vasha kisses Alyz softly "I love you Alyz. You mean so much to me, and have done so much. Let me share my love for you."
