Broken Antler Fen i drive into corning, and all the spindles whine

@Wraen <3 sorry it took so long!!

his tread back from the spear was slow, his thoughts heavy.

once upon a time he had turned his back to the mountain gladly -- and now that all the mountain stood for was gone, there was naught but hollowness in arcturus' heart.

to see a legacy -- his legacy -- incinerated by starfall awoke something in arcturus terrible and sorrowful at once. for a long time, he had wrestled with his decisions -- with guilt and heartbreak -- and now, any opportunity for closure had been forever stolen from him.

and his family; dead now like his parents. arcturus' throat tightened as he thought of the faces of his sisters, his brothers -- even his nieces and nephews.

shadows on a mountain now faded to nothing.

he called for wraen that night; he would tell her of what he had learned, and he would tell her too of the things that still troubled him.. if his heart was strong enough.
