Every night Cemilian came to see me every night.

We spent the evening talking about all sort of things. I spoke to him about the plants in garden, their many uses in the application of magic. He seemed so interested and so attentive.

I spoke to about to him about my travels, about the things he had seen, and the people I've met.

We continued to meet like that for many weeks, just the two of us.

"Ni'enw you're very well-traveled, I'm a little jealous. I fear... I fear I might never leave this place."

"I see," I turned to Cemilian looking him in his eyes, "I feel for you."

"Thank you, Ni'enw. I have to go now."

"Yes, sleep well Cemilian," I waved goodnight to him and watched as he departed.

I remained where I was perched on a stone pillar in the garden staring up at the night sky.

I felt a warm breeze and a presence behind me.

"Mistress, why are? What you're!"

"Yes, little spirit, I am," I smiled, "though I can't let you wander about and spoil my fun." I raised my hand casting a spell that sealed the Fauna spirit.
