It was an action that brought about the acuteness of their situation. Ripped from time, torn apart, cut loose on the wind, what could two people say to each other in the briefest moment of breath other than what was truly on their minds and hearts. Just when Umbrosus thought all had been said that could have been, Valanthia shocked him. His eyes widened, his head tilted back, and he laughed. His laughter was a free light thing filled with the joy of discovery and tinged with hope for the future.
"You found it? You really found it?" He exclaimed, pulling her upwards to her feet even as the forces started tearing them back to what each considered their own time. "Gods Valanthia, do you know what this means! Do you know?! No... you can't... but you should. You should find Karlasa and see if she can sing it awake, if it isn't already. But its going to be hard.... very hard. She's got to be a Virkyn in your time, if she even exists. Val listen to me... don't get just anyone to do it. Not just anyone... they are so easy to key wrong, when you finally decide to go about doing it... don't trust someone that might key it wrong. We only get one shot..." He said, even as time tore them both back into their present realities. It left her standing at the mirror, clutching at the glass.... watching her mate do the same. He pounded, from beyond time... at the silvery surface... and she saw him mouth one more thing before it darkened. "Come back again... often.. more... don't forget... love you..."
It left her there, in the dark, with an uncovered mirror and a Virkyn that lurked in the shadow still afraid to approach her.
