Hi there! I know there are NOT NEARLY enough of these stories around, with Eliwood and Lyn...which is disappointing, but okay. It just makes mine all the more awesome. Maybe....I'm not sure. I'm not very good at this stuff. Anyway, I'll stop yapping.
Disclaimer- I do NOT own Fire Emblem or any of the person's mentioned in the story. I merely wish I did.
Prologue: The words that started it all....
" I thought it would be better to spoil your day than to ruin your life."
His words rung clear as a bell in her head, her jade pools closing to block out the buzz of the outside world. Now that she thought more on it, the more she realized how remarkable this man was, that he didn't seem human at all, and he was yet the most down-to-earth person she had ever met. The day he said that was a day she would never forget. It was at that point that she was convinced that he was the only man that would ever fit in her heart. She opened her eyes to stare at the relaxed reflection in the mirror. " Marquess Pherae…. just what are you exactly?" Lyndis shook her head gently. " I was 18 at that time…. so much has happened… so many things have changed… since you said those words…."
I thought it would be better to spoil your day than to ruin your life…..
The day she met Eliwood was a day she'd scarecely forget. He appeared from the shadows carring the young woman later come to be known as Ninian. He smiled at Lyn with kindness, hearing her tale and even offered her his aid. He had since come to her aid time and time again, as both a soldier and a friend. He confided in her on matters that he would rarely dream of discussing with Hector, and she told him anything and everything that came across her mind. At one time, he had confessed feelings for her. Unsure of his motives, she tried as best she could to put him down gently.
If I had accepted Lord Eliwood…how different would our lives be now? Would we be closer?
She certainly wanted that. Her head was in a constant haze when he was around, but everything about him seemed so clear. His ethereal glow, his gentleness. Surely the feelings of companionship would have naturally grown since that time so long ago. But she was scared of what could have happened. Would he cherish her like he promised? Would he let her go? Hurt her? Use her? It was too risky for her. Only until it was too late and they said their goodbyes did she realize she had something special.
Would we be enemies?
Lyn frowned a bit at her reflection. They were from completely different countries. He from Pherae and she from the Sacaen Plains. Being of Caelin blood from her mother's side, it still wasn't enough for other nations to see past her father's "barbaric" nature. She shook her head, the tiny bangles on her ears shaking a bit. "No…regardless of where I came from…I am Lyn. Eliwood would never hold my Sacean blood against me….things like that don't matter when you're in l-"
Lyn couldn't bring herself to finish that sentence. Sighing she moved away from the mirror and looked out the window, her mind filled with thoughts on the day peace returned to Elibe.
A/N: Okay I realize a lot of people might go "WHA??" I honestly don't know either. I just picked up this game for the first time in like....5 years or something. XD Reviews are appreciated but not required, flame all you want but I'll just casuallyy chuckle and ignore.
