"Eragon" Arya said to herself when the ship was almost out of her vision, "Don't leave me..." She whispered hoping among all things she held dearly, that this would not be the last time that she saw him. It was to late she realized, to late for her and Eragon to be together, their responsibilities held them back from each other now more then ever before, even during the war. They couldn't be together, not then, nor now, even through they felt the same about each other.

She heard and felt Firnen land beside as she kept looking at the ship that continued to sail farther and farther away from her.

Arya, are you all-right? Firnen asked her as he laid down beside her.

I do not know my beloved, She said. I do not know what I feel for him. He said that he loved me, his true name even said he loved me, and I just pushed him away even through I might feel the same...

Arya hung her head as Firnen said, you can not rush into relationships Arya. Even through I may be younger then you, I am wiser. And time and and patience is important for every relationship Arya. You could even think about it this way, when you meet again and I know that you will, the time that deprecated you to can be good for him. If it is just a childish infatuation, then he will not have it when he returns, but if he does love you as he says... You will know your feelings for him and you will know his the next time you see each other in person.

Thank you Firnen, Arya said to her soulmate while she hugged his massive neck. When she let go she glanced over to the sea and saw that the ship had just crested the nights horizon. "Good luck Eragon, and be safe..." She whispers as the ship disappeared.

Sorry everybody for the super long delay! I am currently working on the next chapter and it should be up before the end of the week!
