Reverie settled beside Blossom and tried to find the words.
I'm sorry, She said finally. I - didn't mean to scare you. I wouldn't do anything to hurt Blossom, you have to know that. But she was scared to look at him as she said it, afraid that she would see the opposite in his eyes. I'll send you back to Kvarsheim.
But - what happened in that cave - She took in a breath and curled closer around Blossom. You don't understand. What I am - where I've come from. I was never meant to be here, not really. Reverie was suddenly aware that she was not making any sense. She tried to explain further;
There's a place, The Garden, where nothing ever dies, She ached to recall it! Her voice turned wistful as she spoke. Not here, not in this world. I tried to go back - but I was turned away, sent here again, for her. To burn for her.
And that woman was there, trying to take Blossom, and nothing but light would chase her away. So I burned, and burned, and I - I realized that was what I was meant for, Quiet now, quieter with every word. And it keeps haunting me, the words - I am the sun, and you will burn with me.
I saw you die, She said, trembling again now. And her, gone. All because of me, because of my fear - because I don't want to burn! Did he understand now? He had to. He had to.
Watching me is like

watching a fire take your eyes from you
