Author's Note: So here's another oneshot. I know it's short, but I hope it's an enjoyable short read. I don't own Fire Emblem.
Thoughts
The great war between the Laguz Alliance and the Begnion Empire has been over for five years. After one year the great hero of the war left the continent to explore the rest of the world, feeling assured that the laguz and beorc were working hard to obtain peace. Ike… the savior of Crimea, of Tellius really… the leader of The Greil's Mercenaries and the man that I loved. Well… loved is not really appropriate considering that I am still in love with him.
How I wish I could leave my position and go out and search for him.
I remain here in Melior attending meetings and walking around connecting with my people. Their prejudice feelings towards the laguz have begun to fade away although I feel that with the more elderly people they've now learnt to keep it to themselves. But at least there is progress in the laguz-beorc relations, progress to achieve his dream.
The guards aren't watching, maybe I could slip away now… Get on a ship and search for him.
I consulted Lucia and Geoffrey in the matters of my heart. Lucia is married to Bastian and they welcomed a child into their family a year later, Geoffrey is a dedicated commander who is married to his job. Lucia asked me whether I believed that he would return, when I answered with a nod she told me to hold on to that belief and to never let go. To wait for him so that when he returned I could relieve onto him the strength of my feelings towards him. Geoffrey disagreed with Lucia saying that I should get over him, that he might never return and that I needed to be prepared for that. His words sounded more like resentment rather than advice….
I'll wait my entire life if I have to, there's no one else out there for me.
Sometimes I stay up all night, I go out into the terrace of the palace and gaze up at the moon and the starts. I know it's a very cliché thing to do, and that it makes me seem like a little girl but it gives me comfort. I wonder where he is and how he is doing and my imagination begins to create images of him facing against bandits rescuing people, discovering mystic temples, perhaps even coming across a lost young woman and helps her restore her kingdom… Well that last one was more for the laughs than it was a belief, it brings me back to the time eight or nine years ago in which I first met him… at the Greil's retreat…
Sometimes I have to stop myself from devising a way to get down and slip off into the darkness of the night, so that I may search for him.
I wish that there were someway for me to know where he is and how he's doing. It's slowly starting to drive me insane and I need to be focused if I am to rule my people, but not knowing is… like a piercing blade going in and out of my heart several times… Oh how I wish he would just come back, if only for one day, so that I could just see him, hug him, kiss him, and tell him that I love him. But I know deep down it may never happen, no matter what I believe…
He'll never know that I love him, and I will always be alone.
So what'd you think? Good, bad? Let me know!
