Immortal Hearts Can Bleed Too...
Prologue
A moment can be a long time.
The Firstborn had never really appreciated this sentiment, as a moment was nothing to them, time flew past without heed to their lives; yet this single moment contained all of infinity and none...
Liralasse opened her eyes groggily, instantly full of clarity and sorrow as she looked into her twin brother's eyes, as he lay gazing softly at her.
"I came to say goodbye, my twin," she whispered, barely audible, tears threatening to fall and spoil this precious moment; elves on either side of them leapt from their chairs and cried out in alarm at her words...yet she held no eyes for anyone but her other half.
He looked sadly back at her, accepting her words, no blame filled his eyes or hurtful words sprang forth from his tongue.
Legolas entwined his fingers with her own, as always their symbol of 'being whole', he whispered back, "I will miss you, my twin."
Before strong arms lifted them together, and held them to a sobbing chest, "Tithen pen, don't leave, stay! Saes!"
Their Ada cried in desperation.
Liralasse smiled upwards at him, then her gaze settled, once again, on her twin,
"I will wait for you...in...Valinor...my...brother..."
She whispered, quietly, and went still.
