Here I am now watching you from above. You are not the same former God-King I remember. The one who was like an untamed animal.
I am so sorry to have left you. I am so sorry for a lot of things. But, most of all, I am so very sorry that I never got a chance to be with you to feel the love you are feeling for me right now.
As I watch you, I wish I could come down to you just for a day or so, to ease the torment in you. Yes, you have become a human in every way. I was your teacher and there were many times I thought you would have given up and torture me as you have done so to those "lowly humans", as you would say. But, why was it, that I was the chosen one? The one you never thought to have destroyed.
You are a woman in every way. You showed me comfort in the last moments of my life. You held me in your arms and I am so thankful that you were with me as I took my last breath.
Iblame myself for what you are going through, fighting for whatever life you have on earth. What would life have been if I never knew you? We've known each other for only a short time, but I've often wondered if we were meant to be together. Have you ever thought maybe, just maybe, we were "soulmates" from many centuries ago? They say your heart and soul follows you into your next life. Is that what happened to us? You followed me into this world of mine, yet I was taken away so suddenly.
I know that all you see is darkness. If there was chance to turn back time, I would do so in a heartbeat. You made a difference in my life. This is not goodbye, no farewells, but, until our two souls meet again. I shalll be waiting for you, reaching across many centuries, to hold you, to kiss you and to tell you that I've been with you always, throughout eternity.
You stand alone, looking in at what is now your world. I wish to be standing right next to you at this very moment, to help make you fit where you belong. You belong to me. What I really want to say is, "here I am," right before your very eyes.
If we were given one final moment together, do you know what I'd say to you? My apologies, Illyria, for leaving you behind. I so wanted to be by your side. Do you think it was easy for me to have left you?
Leaving you behind? That was the worst choice I have every made. So here's to you, my dear Illyria, there is nothing more I want to do, than to hold you in my arms and tell you "I love you".
