Light of An Angel

Wondering with Odin, and speaking of her pain of mankind, and the blood shed of loved ones. He looked at her through his one good eye, and laughed a hearty laugh. "Well Jennidia I must teach you the greatest lesson of all." smiling he brings down a great thunders crash and lands the spell across her back. Cutting away her wings. Nothing left but a few pieces of wing, and feather surrounding her, she looks into Odin face, and silently ask "WHY!" Again he laughs a hearty laugh. "Oh child I mean you no harm. You must find your way....Among man. Find your heart and stop sulking in my presence. You are here to learn not to pout." Nodding she wonder through the woods. Seeing a man wondering and she thinks to stop and speak to him. Gently wondering over she realizes it is the same man that meet her the other day. Same green armor moving in the light. Shinning like a sea of Emeralds. Such a beautiful human, she pondered.

Walks over to him and makes herself known. He smiles as he turns to her. Bowing as if she was royalty she blushes and is not sure what to think. He speaks of hunting, and taking time away from his duties in his land. He too it seemed was on vacation to teach himself humility. She listened in wonder of how he spoke the distaste for mankind, and the love of the nature around them. She was in full awe of his beauty, and could not truly speak much to him. She just sat and listened to this man.

After a while the sun began to set and she realized he was watching her. He took her hand in his, and asked to see her again. She did not know what to say so she did not respond. He looked at her deeply and his spoke his words, like a command telling her mind to obey. She nodded gracefully to his plea. He turned sheathed his sword to his back, and wondered off with great strides. She watches him leave with great interest wondering if she was betraying her friends.

Sat pondering the words of Odin, and watches the sun fully set with the hughes of purple and deep blue streak the sky. Laying down on the stump she fantasies a life away from pain, and hate and finds herself in deep sleep, dreaming of screams from Algarond, and hate from her brother. Screaming at her in pain for her hand.

Waking up screaming she sits back up atop the stump to find the man staring at his with interest. She opens her mouth but no words escaped. "Greetings M'Lady", he spoke with great care and concern. "She watched him and moved to a more suitable position. He again bowed to her, and sat across from her starting a fire, and offering her his catch from earlier. Feeling a great pain in her stomach she takes his offer. Peering down on it, she smell and aroma that caught her appeal. Watching her with a smile he does not know what to make of her. As she tears into the flesh of the meal, he begins to speak to her of his travels, and why he was wondering in the woods. Of his noble blood, and never once truly asking her of herself. Which she actually enjoyed for she did not wish to explain of gods, and angelic beings.

He looked at her and grabbed her hand. "Please...dance with me" he spoke in a kind and gentle voice. Aghast she follows his lead. He quickly sweeps her off her feet and moves her through the forest dancing with her along the lining of the river bank. He hums a tune to their step as he looks into her eye not saying a word. She feels her stubs of wings touch his arm through her words, and she blushes. Hoping he did not notice.

As a while went on he took her hand and lead her through the forest. Still no words were exchanged. Stopping under a large tree he stops. Turning to look at her he lightly touches her face. Blushing she does not move. Body rigged she does not know what to do. Feeling a friend in a distant land tugging at her heart she tried to forget her past as she stares into her future. The gentleman leans in and lightly kisses her forehead and smiles. Staring blankly at him, she is lost for words. Such chivalric nature she is beside herself. He hears a birds cry and his once gentle face turned saddened. "M'Lady...please be here when I return I must go" letting go of her hand he quickly disappears into the woods. She smiles as she knows she will never see him again. She wonders back into the clearing were Odin awaited her. He was smiling as she entered. She looked at him not sure of his smile, but knows that soon she will be returning home.

Speaking to him of the gentleman in the woods, and asking about her wings. He shakes his head and smiles. "Nay Jennidia not today." Bewildered, she sighs knowing Odin and that he has an interesting sense of knowledge.

The next morning she set out home for Algarond. Walking through the town, she looks for better robes and something more suitable for a human. Wondering around she enters the fortress and sees her Simbul sitting atop her thrown. She smiles not knowing if she knows her. She steps off into the back and finds herself wondering through the fortress getting lost in corridors and winding staircases. Finally after getting lost, she moves to the large tree in the base of town. Standing before it her mind wonders back to the kiss under the tree in the forest. Smiling to herself she lightly ran her thoughts over his features. Such a young and interesting boy. Barely 19 she was not sure if she would have been so inclined to know such a young boy, but her heart felt a small flutter as she imagined his eyes.

A hand touches her and wraps inside her fingertips as a soft voice speak to her. "Not the tree I asked but you are here none the less" turns around she finds the man standing before he. Blushing deeply she is beside herself. Wondering if he could see the thoughts that she was just seeing. He smiles down to her and again lightly kisses her on the forehead. Still blushing and lost for words she looks into his eyes. Finding herself opening her mind to him freely and feeling no shame with him. "I have heard that you serve in a temple M'lady" pointing down on her robes that she had yet had a chance to change. Smiling with a slight nod, she clasp her hands together. "Aye M'Lord I am the High Oracle of Evanie" she looks down and finds herself rolling over his armor and stopping at his chin. Holding her gaze there. He squeezes her hand to remind her that he is still holding hers, he pulls her closer and whispers in her ear. "Would it be rude to ask M'lady for another dance." shaking her head she steps into him lightly. He moves her along the stones of the town and past the people dancing with her. She smiles as everyone around her loses her vision. Watching them fade from her as she is lost in his grace, and humble manor. He keeps his look upon her not glancing once to look away. He moves her to a fountain and stops for a moment. "I have this for you" he says as he pulls a rose from the back of his shirt. A smiles fill her face. Laughing lightly to the quaint gesture.

Holding the rose to her, he sits next to her and looks yet again deep into her eyes. She does not know what to say. Frozen in his gaze. He leans down and lightly touches his lips to hers. A light moves through her, as she is lost in his embrace. A crash of lightly strickes her back as her wings unwind and fully form before her minds eye. Still pressed to his lips he does not move. Holding her close he does not glance up for falter in move.

He moves lightly back and looks into her eyes. He moves off of the seat next to her, and kneels before her. "M'lady may I have your hand." shaking she gives him her hand. "Jennidia...will you marry me?" Mind whirling she hears her name come forth from this man. Never had she given him her name and nor was he affected by her wings. "HOW?" How does he know so much of her. Were she would be, her home, her wings...Everything. She was lost, and unable to talk. The town noticing the ca motion they stand in aw of the Angels wings bearing before their eyes, and seeing a man kneeling before her with a ring in hand. "m'lord...I barely know you" he shakes his head. "Nay..you know me well" Looking into his eyes she senses a familiar form that she had not looked for. Unable to respond a silence falls. A woman in the crowed with long blond hair screams "SAY YES M'LADY" blushing she is lost in such a moment. She speaks without even knowing her words. "Y..yes m'lord" he places the ring on her finger and smiles.
