Time heals all wounds or so they say.
Druig felt at peace with his choice, eventually. The anger turned numb and he created a safe space for those that followed. It was only after a human girl stumbled upon the secret society after escaping a broken...

Gabriella slowly wakes, shielding her eyes as the sunlight streams in through the opened curtains. A smile curls loosely on her lips as she pulls herself up, the breeze was gentle on her skin that slipped its way into her room. The morning was warm as if the sky felt the happiness of her heart and chose her to decide it's mood.
Everything seemed so at peace as if the world truly made sense and she could only giggle at the thought of him. Removing the tangled sheets from around her, Gabriella stretches slowly before moving to get ready for the day.
It was a chilly morning as she made her way into the clearing. Reaching her arms above her head warming up her muscles, Gabriella smiles as she notices Druig listening to some of the woman chatting away much to loudly. Stopping to watch for a moment, Gabriella shakes her head in amusement as Druig looks up and notices her. As he was aware of her now, he smiles warmly before walking around and behind the woman, mimicking their gestures innocently.
Druig was kind and the people loved him for it. He always made sure to keep everyone safe, everyone happy. But often when he wasn't looking, Gabriella could see that at times he felt overwhelmed by it, though he hid it well.
Shaking her head with a laugh, Gabriella made her way to him as he straightened himself and shortened the distance between them. With a small gesture to the woman, they bowed briskly before whispering of the pair before them and returning to their chores.
The others in the compound were aware of something forming between the two, yet no one made any comment. This gesture was more to satisfy Druig's longing to seem stern and in control. Despite what you might say looking upon the community he had built, he cared a lot about his people and they respected him for it.
Druig was often treated much like what you think a 'god' would be treated like amongst humans. It was more due to his followers wanting to treat him as such and although Druig was of a higher purpose it was true, he was sure to keep his rule gracious, but he never thought himself a true god.
"You're late," Druig comments teasingly bumping his shoulder against Gabriella's as she returns a small bump.
"I'm not late," she replies grinning before facing him properly, "we had no set time for training."
"Did I not mention-"
"No you didn't," Gabriella cuts him off holding her grin before stepping back not taking her eyes off Druig, "shall we?
The corners of his mouth curved upwards in amusement as he simply nodded and moved to follow her. Watching her closely, Druig felt himself swept away in her aura as they walked to the training arena. The arena had been a place they often visited together, which proved true as little snow was seen.
As Gabriella sped ahead to reach the arena, she turned happily to see Druig following quietly. Watching her tie her hair quickly in ponytail, Druig felt himself entranced. It was becoming more clear to him that he held her above all else, that she had become his sole true reason to want to stay on Earth.
