Song: Home Tonight, Chris Rice
Focal Character(s):
Tear

"Come home!"

Days went by, and she waited. Time moved on, and she seemed to drift along with it. She moved through each day, going through the motions, but waiting. Always, always waiting.

"I will."

The sky was dark over the field of selenias. Her song flowed over them, reaching toward the ocean, reaching toward the stars. Reaching toward him. He'd promised. She'd waited. They'd all waited.

"I promise."

And then, she saw him.

"I'll come home."


A/N: The italicized dialogue comes right out of the game, in the final conversation between Luke and Tear just before the party leaves Luke to free Lorelei in Eldrant.
