Broken Boulder he will stand before the throne

Liri can sense that he has been discreetly noticing her as he seems to be silently taking in everything. But soon, the northron grows used to keeping her eyes away from him and all but forgets his presence. 

It is a comfortable silence, unbroken by either. Occasionally he spots something and Liri too takes notice of whatever it is. She has yet to learn of his interest in Lily; perhaps if she knew of his relationship with the blackbird, Liri might have spoken. 

When some stretch of time has passed, the hour turns golden and the sky is rosy. The healer gives a soft noise of departure and slips away into the forest.
