Ravensblood Forest eden.

I understand. And I apologize for making this decision like this, but this is something I feel that I need. I understand completely if you command me to never come near these borders or the Family ever again. Aster retreated even farther into herself with Arturo's words, and inched herself back from his form. The Family does come first, which is why no matter what my punishment for leaving may be, I will respect it as I respect you. Even if I'm permanently cast from these borders, I will continue to understand my duty to the Family. I didn't place my word in vain, Arturo.
She hadn't by any means. Aster was a smart woman and she knew what she was doing. She understood risks and still she knew what was right for her.
