Prologue: Part One
I can't just sit here and watch him be beaten by my family. But I can't just turn my back on my race. Oh the indicision! My thoughts are racing as I watch my love try to defend me from my own kin. My family is now nothing. They have truly forgotten what they taught me; they are so caught up in the struggle for dominance. I can't help but wince at the thought of either side loosing!
I made a mistake! He doesn't mean anything to me! Kill him!
I want to yell these lies. To spare him from more hurt than he's gone through. To let them kill him so that I may spare my family and my love from pain. I will just live alone.
Cold and alone. My Fyre put out through shame. Oh! If only I had my flame! But alas, my pendant is gone and I am human for my love. So that he won't kill me. So that we will work. Needless to say my family is not pleased.
I can hear voices as his family approaches. Ready for a fight. But my darling must live! I must get to him! I can feel a single tear roll down my cheek as he picks himself off the floor once more and positions himself in front of me. My mouth is open in a silent scream as he lunges once more. This once; possibly towards his death.
How I wish I could reverse this. If only I was a human...
I will tell you my story. If I do die here, I will tell you how this all happened and how the Kireen came to love the Namuri... and hopefully how they came to truly join the two races...
