I shouldn't really be here but I want a break from my art and I got this in my head. Just a short little thing to make up for having disappeared. Enjoy =)
This is after Sharma is destroyed, M and C are taking a walk in Innail. They are not together.

Maerad and Cadvan wandered leisurely along the grass path together. The sun was high in the sky, shining down on them happily. Cadvan turned to Maerad with a smile touching his eyes. Cadvan stopped, and Maerad followed suite. He took her hand and traced a line down the centre of it with his finger, saying, "This is a river." He tapped one side of her hand and explained, "There is a rabbit-"
"A hull-bunny?" Maerad interrupted with a smile.
Cadvan returned the smile. "If you want," he agreed. "This rabbit, or hull-bunny, wants to get to the other side of the river. How do you think it did it?"
"Swim?" Maerad guessed.
"No."
"Did it grow little bunny wings and fly?"
Cadvan chuckled. "No."
"Did it…catch a lift from a vegetarian hawk?"
This made Cadvan laugh aloud and he shook his head.
"Did it dig a tunnel underneath the river?"
"No," Cadvan replied, shaking his head slowly, his smiling eyes gazing right at her.
"Did it wait until a boat came along and then jump across?"
"No."
"Did it…hmm…eat lots and lots so it became an enormous hull-bunny and jump right over the river, creating an enormous earthquake which lasted for leagues?"
Cadvan raised an eyebrow at this one. "No."
"Alright, I give up. How did the rabbit get across the river?"
Cadvan smiled sheepishly at her, a lock of hair falling across his eye. "There was no rabbit. I just wanted to hold your hand."
Maerad blushed as Cadvan kissed her fingers, and they continued on their walk, hands clasped awkwardly.
The whole world was smiling.
