Ulric was getting impatient with me, I could tell by his words and actions. I managed to talk him into at least one more day, I could not explain but I knew I could not turn back now I have traveled to far and spent to much time out here to just turn away.
I was compelled to go forward, I could not explain it.
The herlit was relentless lately in his call and presence, he would hover and fly around, I swear it was trying to talk, I was following that damned bird for some reason, perhaps because to me he was a sign. As we traveled a light mist seemed to crawl along the ground it was in my mind that it was obscuring but for a moment of time, then it would reveal something but what. Yes, I know I am really quite insane I have decided.
We traveled some distance when we saw a glow in the shroud of darkness, the way it moved I knew that it was a fire,the herlit was going towards it, really that suncatcher is not to bright. But I followed anyway. The closer I got to the camp the more strange I felt, my heart raced and pounded in my chest, it was as if something were waiting and my senses already were in motion.
Dismounting from Mist Runner I walked towards the fire, I did not see anyone but I felt him, there was a hum in the air and it vibrated around me, only one person could I feel like that, but I knew it could not be he was dead. But yet there was movement in the shadows and when he stepped out I felt such an overpowering surge of emotions that I felt myself sway, I reached out to Ulric to steady myself only because he was behind me. There before me stood Garyx. I have never fainted in my life but in that one moment I thought I would.
He spoke my name, and seemed surprised to know it, but when he said I know you, I knew something had happened, he knew me yet he did not. I could feel the many emotions that warred within him as he struggled to remember how he knew me, I stepped towards him and looked up at him lifting my hand to touch his face, beneath my flesh I could feel the scars, I knew when each one was given to him, so much was between us that bound us together, the connection was once more sparked I could feel it. The part of me that was missing was once more reconnecting to me. I told him that yes he knew me, that he was my warrior a part of me and I a part of him.
There was a moment that he looked a bit perplexed as if trying to take it all in, it was only when he touched the braided lock of hair that held a larls tooth and herlits feather did he say that he gave it to me to remember him, and he did, he made it not long after we were mated, when much strife and dreams were invading my sleep and the tribe was going through so many changes, even we had moments of strain and tests to get thru, part of his helping me was that gift, it was to know he was with me always, and that it was his strength lent to mine. Especially during patrol or on hunts that I could not be with him on.
He looked to me and suddenly pulled me into his arms and held me close to him. No words were needed.
I know that he is feeling so much as a dam has been unblocked and much is rushing thru him, I hold him close to me and it is the feel of him and his scent wrap around me.
For now I could only thank the skies that he was alive, he was flesh and blood I had not imagined everything. He was here in my arms and for the moment that is all I could think of.
Soon there will be time for words, but at the moment they are not going to intrude into this moment.
