"Come on, that's not the only place you have not been to?" Wraen laughed merrily at Arcturus's quick answer and noted to herself that, whenever she would have time and her shoulder would not bother her too much, she would have to take that guy out more. Moonspear was not the rim of the world, neither was Sun Mote copse.
"Leander. He was a young male that returned to my family's pack together with my sister Sarah. Tall, handsome, easy-going and very kind," she replied, smiling at the memory of the first man she had fallen head-over-heels with and the one reason, why she had chosen to set out in the world. Had it not been for him, she might have never felt the urge to leave the comfy nest of her parents claim.
"I fell for him the moment I saw him - I think that I was barely a year old then and I had not seen much of other people outside my immediate family circle. He was like a travelling prince from the stories and, what else a naive and innocent soul needs to be charmed?" she chuckled, her gaze having a far-off expression with a tinge of sadness.
"When I confessed, he heard me out and refused me kindly. He did not feel the same way and I felt heartbroken," Wraen went on with the story. "That was - in fact - me facing the reality of life for the first time. I had lived in fairy-tales and preconcieved ideas of, what life should be. And being turned down had never been part of it," she said.
"Imagine the disappointment - I did not know, how to deal with it, while still in the same ranks as him, so I left to nurse my heart elsewhere. It is whole now and the experience left me a wiser person," she said. "There came others after him, that gave me the familiar tingling feeling in the pit of my belly and tips of my toes, but it was never exactly the same. Never went anywhere," Wraen sighed.
"Therefore I have given up on the whole business entirely and chosen solitary spinsterhood instead. It is not as bad as it sounds, but at times it is a very lonely existence. Arthur, therefore... don't take my path. Make something more meaningful out of your life. That you have to promise me," she gave him a look, full of fondness and then turned her gaze away to stare thoughtfully in the distance.
