I need to find him.
Damned be my feelings, damned be his.
Leila's heart burst with the truth, her lungs with hunger. Violent grief seeped through every orifice, drenching her in a past that was too heavy to carry.
"You passed out! Are you okay, you were awake, and then your eyes rolled back-" Lily was crying, and her mind was reeling. She could not focus on the sound.
One thing was certain; Lily had not led her astray from what she translated. All the words she had spoken were practical and without true detail. Watching Jae once again lose his love right before his eyes was an entirely different feeling. And of course, Anastasia's implication in the matter had been swiped from the history books.
All the family had felt was a tragedy and blamed themselves for it. Leila was done letting Taehyung hurt for a crime he did not commit. She needed him to know of his family and everything he had come to be.
"I need to find the prince. Wrath and all." Leila got up without Lily's help, pulling the ripped fabric of her dress together as she walked down the hallway.
The sun had faded to a deep orange, that of honeyed mead. The halls had become darker, and each stone still carried its glittering light.
Sunset. Her heart fluttered under her crossed arms, realizing she had been in that vision for hours now. To see it in person was something else entirely. And still, all she could think of was Jae's final look at the sun. How broken he seemed, even as he tried to give life to his wife.
Taehyung, I need you.
Lily walked in stuttering steps behind her, but the princess turned to address her. Lily was shocked and turned yellow and pink by the fading sun.
"Find my sister, tell her what happened. Tell her I am sorry but am alive so she cannot be too mad. Inform Aera to tell the nobles that are left here of what occurred, so that they can visit the Immortui villages and let them know the sun is safe for them all." Leila commanded confidently.
Lily took her in appreciatively, "What did you see when you were gone?"
"Everything." She bit her lip, trying not to shake, "You were right Lily. What you translated of the book happened. But there was so much we did not know of."
The woman nodded, a line appearing between her brows. A little family trait Leila had come to adore, "Good luck. Don't fuck-I mean fight."
