strongheartmaidAN: just straight Skeleton Warriors - I'll get back to the cross later. Just need to get this out of my system
Zara stared into the distance, her grass green eyes focused in the direction she knew the Legion of Light had gone off in. It had been mere hours since they left but it felt so much longer. She supposed part of the reason was that her heart had gone off with them. She moved away from the window, moving back into the house proper. The world expected her to marry Justin, the crown prince, the one who seemed destined to restore their world back to the way it was, but her traitorous heart had fallen for his younger brother, who also loved her. It was funny, she thought with bitter amusement, years ago she could have easily seen herself marrying Justin and being happy, but that was before her friendship with Joshua bloomed into so much more, meant so much more. She let out a wearied sigh - next time, she promised herself, next time she'd tell Justin the painful truth of why she left him, left the city to return to her home, and pray that he'd forgive her. It was only right that he finally knew.

Jennifer watched Joshua out of the corner of her eye. Ever since they left Romney, he seemed to be more distant then usual. She worried her lower lip for a moment, wondering if something had happened between Zara and him. "Hey," she said, catching her little brother's attention. "You okay?" she asked.
Joshua clearly startled at his sister's voice. "I'm fine," he rasped out. "Just thinking."
"About Zara?" Jennifer prodded. "You two made up right?"
"Yes, we.. made up," he answered slowly. No need for Jennifer or Justin to know the exact details just yet.
