Sun Mote Copse say you'll stay with me tonight

Charon shook his head when Maia asked if she had said why, even though she sort of had. He couldn't quite make sense of it, feeling that she had control over this and she simply did not want to. She said she couldn't force nature, or something, but she also seemed to be quite happy to not have to go through it anymore. It was as if she didn't want to anymore. She's a bit older than me, though I don't know how much specifically... Honestly, he only knew she was older than he was because they'd met once when he was still young and she was an adult.

.. It just seems like we're no longer aligned, lately. Before she had always wanted what he wanted and that made things easy enough. but now that was no longer the case and it was really difficult to see the path forward.
