:Ledah:
Ledah, my partner and best friend, is everything I am not and will never be.
He looks and acts the part of the proper Grim Angel, tall and graceful, swathed in all shades of scarlet with his broad, imposing black wings. His silver rosary, studded with a tiny, amber swirl of cat's-eye where the cross is fixed, hangs eternally over his breast as a reminder of his purpose. He is pale-skinned and fair-haired, with his golden tresses cut inattentively at shoulder-length, flaring wildly with wind or his movements. Lorelei, his Diviner spear, is always at his side; a bent cross of the brilliant, red-hot-looking crimson that's usually associated with cinnamon candy. His eyes are striking dark carmine, like the dying heat in cooling coals. He's the kind of man who makes an impression, and then proves himself to be better than people think.
Ledah is stern and serious and follows rules. His battle cries are usually something like "Death to all sinners" or "Burn in the fires of judgement". Lorelei burns brightly in his hands as he rushes to fulfill his orders, incinerating all who oppose him.
He's older than me, and has seen more battle because he got his Diviner before I did. He's one of Asgard's most powerful agents and is treated with respect wherever he goes because of his awesome strength.
Ledah is also kind and caring and patient, and gentle when you'd never expect him to be. There's still so much that I don't know, but instead of getting angry with me, he softly explains whatever I need to learn to survive. Lorelei sings through the air, more often than not, to defend me from whichever predicament I find myself in on the hour.
Ledah the solitary angel, as some call him, is softspoken and grave in nature. His smiles are as infrequent as they are precious, and easy to miss. I doubt that I've ever seen him happy, he who walks instead of using his wings to spare my still-aching pride. That worries me sometimes, but there isn't much that I can do.
Someday, I'd like to be able to make him laugh.
Ledah is my partner, my teacher. The one who helped me when I needed someone most, the one who was there through all my hard times. The very best of friends, along with my familiar Rose.
When I am still so weak, he is strong enough for both of us. Strong enough for all of Asgard. Strong enough to begin the Retribution all on his own.
But he is my partner, who walks for me.
Ledah. My best friend in the whole world.
