Oisin was ever so gentle not to wake up Luca as he moved out of the cushion. He stood up and his muscular backside showed as the blanket fell from his body.

"Where are you going? We still have time." Luca asked as he stirred from his slumber.

"I have to go." Oisin as he picked up his disregarded clothing on the floor of the gazebo.

Luca immediately showing his naked form and went behind Oisin and embrace the High General of the Forest clan.

"Hey," Oisin began to say as he faced the prince of the Aeolian clan. "We knew that this day would come."

"I know, but ..." Luca said. However, his sentenced was interrupted when Oisin placed his lips against the prince.

They kissed like for eternity with their eyes closed as tears fell from their eyes.

Immediately, Oisin broke their kiss and turned around not wanting Luca to see his sadness. He hurriedly put on his clothes. As Oisin put on his garments, there was uneasy silence in the air.

After Oisin had tied his shoe laces, Luca spoke.

"Does it have to be you?"

"There is no one left to do this task." Oisin said plainly.

"There must be an alternative than this." Luca insisted.

"I calculated all the possibilities," Oisin replied. "But, there is no way than this."

"I know that what Henry said makes sense." Luca said. "However, this does not feel right. Why you? Why can't I be the one to do what you have to do?"

"Look my dear Luca,"

Oisin turned around and held Luca's face with his hands. He looked deeply into Luca's eyes before continuing to speak.

"There is no other way. We have not been blessed enough by the stars and this task falls upon me and me alone. Your path has been set, as well as for others and mine."

Oisin sighed as he paused and placed his forehead against Luca.
