Lief and Jasmine walked through the palace gardens, the music and the celebrations behind them. But
they only had eyes and ears for each other.
They stopped in front of a Fountain.
Lief: Jasmine, you look...
Jasmine: Ssh... Speak softly now...
~*~
Jasmine: Speak softly love And hold me warm against your heart.
I feel your words the tender trembling moments start.
We're in a world- our very own,
Sharing a love that only few have ever known.
Lief: Wine colored days, warmed by the sun,
Deep velvet nights, when we are one.
Jasmine: Speak softly love so no-one hears us but the sky,
The vows of love we make will live until we die.
My life is yours- and all because,
You came into my world with love, so softly love.
~*~
Lief smiled and kissed her neck and lips swiftly. Jasmine felt giddy. She had never thought Lief would
ever, EVER, do this. But now, tonight, he was doing it.
Lief buried his face in her neck and said,
Lief: The only thing that I'm worried about is your powers. You might kill me if I do something absurd.
Jasmine: I would if I could. But I gave them up to Mesmeralde. I do not need them. And I do not want
something from that grotty Shadowlord. Mesmeralde seemed to be happy with her new powers, too.
Lief laughed as he held on to her waist and kissed her. He would never let her go. Never...
Up in the Grand hall balcony, over looking the gardens, were Sharn, Doom, Mesmeralde, and... Barda. They
were all very happy for Jasmine and Lief.
Sharn: There was a time when I wouldn't even let Lief do this. But he has grown now, and it is time to
let him go.
Doom: Ditto.
Mesmeralde: You all are a gloomy lot. Why, you should be glad. I did not think that Jasmine would ever
own up that she loved him!
Barda was silent. There was a bitter-sweet filling inside him. He felt like he had to part with his best
friends.
~*~
There's a calm surrender
To the rush of day
When the heat of the rolling world
Can be turned away
An enchanted moment
And it sees me through
It's enough for this restless warrior
Just to be with you
And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
There's a time for everyone
If they only learn
That the twisting kaleidoscope
Moves us all in turn
There's a rhyme and reason
To the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager
Beats in time with yours
And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
~*~
Mesmeralde: Aw, Barda, it ain't that bad!
Barda looked down at the grinning face. He grinned back.
Barda: Wanna dance?
Mesmeralde: Hey, love to.
They left the scene, leaving Doom and Sharn admiring their own child.
They know that the wedding isn't far away...
