Let the wind carry you across the days

My brother, please hold on, your destiny awaits,

Son of wind and storm alike, you hold the world in your hands,

I watch you travel to fufill your meaning, across the sea and sands

That day had been the first time she had seen him in 13 years.

She remembered him as a little boy, barely walking, but every once in a while causing a little windstorm that would shake up the town. He had been the sweetest two-year-old she had ever seen, with sandy blonde hair and large melting eyes. Ivan was always grinning happily, in his innocent toddler way.

She had loved him so much...

Then, times in Contigo had turned hard. The town was no longer the safe haven it had once been, especially for the two siblings. One fateful day, Ivan and Hama's father died unexpectedly of exhaustion, and times became harder. With a heavy heart, Hama's mother was forced to send her children away, her elder daughter on her own to study in the far northern temples of Xian, and her young son under the care of a kindly merchant. Days later, she had died of heartbreak.

While in Xian, Hama had developed her powers profoundly in a short amount of time and soon discovered she could unlock the mysteries of the future. She became very well known among the monks in Xian, and she grew extremly experianced with the ways the mind, but every day, she thought of her brother.

Then, the day had come when she had seen his arrival. Ivan was with a group of people with powers similar to him, carrying on a quest.

His quest.

Her mother had known something special about him. She had known about his destiny.

Ivan hadn't had a clue. He was only assisting Isaac and the others because he had nothing better to do.

But this was his quest.

Hama had almost cried when she foresaw him coming. Her brother, whom she loved with all her heart, was finally coming.

How badly she wanted to tell him who she was...

But the adept couldn't. It would distract him from his quest.

Still, she anticipated his arrival eagerly, and when the day finally come, it was all she could do to keep calm.

He had grown so much stronger in just the short time of his quest, but he was still her little boy. Her little Ivan.

Hama was so upset he didn't recognize her. But she couldn't blame him. Years had seperated them.

When he left, she couldn't help but watch him walk away. Tears trickled down her face slowly, growing stronger by the second.

No, don't leave yet, Ivan, She thought. Please, don't leave me again, brother.

But she couldn't stop him.

She could only wait and watch, and hope for his safe return.

Ivan, hold on. My heart is with you always.
