Hideaway Strath taigiroku

it takes all of her focus to stay put when he moves towards her. he touches her cheek, being tender, as if the passion in his voice was only a figment of her imagination, but she still hears it. it rings in her ears. he is so desperate for her to understand and accept him, but that will take time.

satsu does not know if she has the power to do it, even so. he is so unlike everyone she's come across. he is the true barbarian lord, like the stories she was raised upon. it is best to stay quiet and to accept things as they are, for now.

now, she only waits to be dismissed.

you protect your people... at all costs. i understand.
