"i--okay," aditya said helplessly to alarian's back as he turned, walking away. it would be pointless to stop him; his mind was clearly made up. besides, diplomatic talks were perhaps best suited for the future, when everyone's emotions had been given time to heal. everything was too raw, and all three of them were adjusting to their new realities.
with a sigh, adi sat down, then padded round in a circle, eventually curling in a golden-brown ball at the base of an old oak tree. he suddenly felt a thousand years old. his eyelids drooped, then closed, and sleep finally found him, restless and fitful as it was. even in dreams, he could not escape his problems, and though the body found respite, the mind did not.
he woke with a shiver, an hour or so later, and rose, returning to morningside with a heart even heavier than before.
