Wheeling Gull Isle I think it burns my sense of truth

I am well, Daegon answered, grin spreading; it felt like the first time in ages that he genuinely meant it. His Queen was his once more, and he was helping her build a new kingdom free from their tragic past. The guilt he felt over it all still clung to his heart and intruded upon his thoughts. Rhæ didn't feel he held any fault, but he wondered if he would ever be able feel the same way. 

He was glad to hear Connor report that things had been quiet. Yes, quiet is good. Safe. His expression hardened some, focus briefly seeming miles away as he remembered when things hadn't been so peaceful for him. He cherished what they were able to build now and felt in his bones that he was meant to be here at his love's side, helping form Aristos with his new packmates. I look forward to when our claim is finally secured, the knight added, stopping near the land bridge to mark the entrance to the island.
