Whitewater Gorge only one remained to haunt me.

A deep exhale, he gathers his emotions—the press of her weight settles across his side, and somehow, he finds stability within that touch. It is welcomed to be this close to someone again, taking him back to the meeting of Alarian all over; for while the man had not been as injured as she, it is clear that hearts were damaged all the same.

His steps stay slow, taking them one at a time to keep the woman from overworking herself too soon. Whenever it got too much, a break would be taken. Together, they leave loneliness and the Gorge behind.

Fade/archive? :) I would not mind continuing with a time lapse and Evergreen finding herbs, etc, to help heal Liri if you'd like, too <3
