𝑺𝑯𝑬 𝑶𝑭𝑻𝑬𝑵 𝑾𝑬𝑵𝑻 𝑾𝑨𝑳𝑲𝑰𝑵𝑮 𝑨𝑴𝑶𝑵𝑮 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑪𝑶𝑷𝑷𝑬𝑹 𝑪𝑶𝑳𝑶𝑹𝑬𝑫 𝑻𝑹𝑬𝑬𝑺. The perpetual autumn had left a chill in the air, and  Queen Larkspur Oakthorn I wrapped her arisaid around her shoulders as she walked. Harvestine was drawing near, and soon Autumnal; a great celebration of harvest and hearth. Days of dancing, singing, and good food, it was the official holiday of her realm, and once she adored. Every year she would come up with something new and exciting for her people to celebrate. This year, she would host a grand tourney. She was the Queen of Swords after all. 

For the moment, she walked, her long dark gown billowing a train of light fabric behind her. She needed some time to think and solitude would be scant the closer Autumnal drew near. Moving through the sea of oak trees, she sensed something amiss. Furrowing her brows, she stepped forward until she saw the shape of someone. Her sapphire hues widened as she drew near the other. 

How was a being able to enter her realm? More specifically, how did she not sense a ripple in the schism? It was a human? No…not quite human. Was that how it was able to traverse the Forest of Umbra and live to tell the tale? It was a beautiful human thing…with long golden hair. Lark canted her head and studied him. 

❝ 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞? ❞ She asked as she rested her hand lazily on the hilt of her blade. 

❝ 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞, 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫? ❞ she asked before checking them over for any kind of injuries.

What she hadn't expected was the group of Assassins. She had fought them off, but one managed to strike her in the head which left a deep cut. The next thing she knew, she was being carried off. She glanced up, her eyes having a hard time focusing on Cyrus. Was he hurt? She hoped not. Slipping an arm around his shoulders, she tried to focus her vision long enough to give him directions back to the palace. 

“ 𝐓-𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐲, 𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬. ” she grumbled as darkness ebbed at the edges of her vision. ❝ 𝐎𝐡…𝐚𝐡 𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐬𝐨 𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐝. ❞

❝ 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝 𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐚, 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟? ❞ She asked as she motioned to the flower crown. Scooting over, Lark patted the spot beside her.

Lark frowned then, her coppery brows furrowing as she crossed her arms over her chest, she peered at Lady Selene.

"Ui," He said brows furrowing as he listened. "I was raised in the North by what you call Fae here. There are skirmishes here and there between your kind and men but nothing like what you've described, my lady."

A treaty was enacted in hopes of finding a semblance of peace between the two realms. Autumnal Queen Larkspur Oakthorn I knew her ancestors had the wards in place to keep the humans out. The treaty had her hands tied, and so, every hundred years, Lark would lower just a piece of the wall to allow the sacrifice--or more endearingly known as her bride or groom--through the schism. That is where she stood now. In the archway, she stood like a marble statue, still and every bit regal. Her freckled face and deep blue eyes, along with her pointed ears were a giveaway to her fae ancestry. 

Canting her head to the side, she studied Sabu, her expression remained unreadable as she glanced at the Yakuza lord. 

❝ 𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐦?  ❞ She shifted her gaze back to Sabu.

𝑳𝑨𝑹𝑲𝑺𝑷𝑼𝑹 𝑵𝑶𝑻𝑬𝑫 𝑯𝑰𝑺 𝑭𝑨𝑵𝑮𝑺. An expression made due to pain. Poor thing. The Forest of Umbra was never kind to those who traversed it, and to have been thrown into a foreign land with no way of navigating it. She was surprised that this man wasn't killed. 

Gently holding his arm around her shoulders and the other sliding around his waist, Lark shook her head. 

❝ 𝐁𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞, 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫. 𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐧. ❞ she said, slowly beginning to guide him down the path back to her palace. 

Lark gave him a nod then. 

❝ 𝐀𝐲𝐞, 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧. 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐧. ❞ She informed him.

❝ 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰. 𝐋𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐩 𝐢𝐧 𝐧𝐨 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞.❞  Her steps were steady and purposeful. She was moving slow so she wouldn't aggravate his wounds. 

his breaths come shallow now,    a testament to his utter suffering.    he has never felt a pain like this before   ( or at least,    not a pain that lasted this strong for this long :    a creature with the ability to heal almost instantaneously knows little worth in this hurt ),    and he decides right this moment that he would rather not know this facet of humanity so intimately again.    whatever that forest was,    IT WAS NOT SOMETHING ALLIED WITH VAMPIRES,    with either the blood of his father or his mother.   

ㅤㅤㅤㅤto step through to a different world into something so harsh has him on edge,    regardless of his current health.    when she holds the flame to his visible bicep wound,    he shows his fangs,    sucking in air through clenched teeth.    the only fire he knows is the kind that burns,    and he expects it of her flame,    too.    but he only feels the warmth that spreads from the point,    through his body and his limbs.    THE ACHE THAT HUMS THROUGH HIS BODY RECEDES INTO A DULLER,    SICKLY WEAKNESS,    but it is enough to help him stand with her help,    arm around her shoulders as advised.

for the most part,    he supports his own weight,    voice grinding in his pain-tightened throat at most movement.    the forest has bled into him more than he’d like.        ❝    i’m sorry.    i’m   …   not used to this.    my wounds usually heal.    ❞        but now,    he can feel the unsettling warmth of fresh blood wetting his shirt and the inner lining of his longcoat,    as much as he can feel traces of foreign magic in him.    whatever she is,    he has not encountered anything like her either.        ❝    you said palace ?    ❞

He had come through the Forest of Umbra, to any citizen of Manon, it was a death sentence but this man was different. She could sense it in the blood that coursed through his veins. 

Lark  had known of such a creature from human tales, a vampire. She had always assumed the first vampire was akin to fae; there was some that relied on blood but something within her was telling her that it was more complex than all of that. She could interview him later, the man needed healing. 

Lark tucked her long skirts under her as she knelt down gracefully beside him. Within her hands came a flickering flame and when she held it to the other, it was warm, but did not burn. Instead, she worked her magic into his wounds. 

❝  𝐀𝐡'𝐦 𝐧𝐚𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫, 𝐬𝐢𝐫, 𝐬𝐨 𝐚𝐡 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐚 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐱 𝐲𝐞 𝐮𝐩. ❞ she said. She allowed her magic to thrum through him. She hoped it was enough to get him up to walking. 

❝ 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝, 𝐬𝐢𝐫? 𝐀𝐡 𝐰𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐲𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐚 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤. 𝐏𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐫𝐦 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐡'𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐲𝐞. ❞ 

the way the dhampir lies on the ground now is akin to a wounded animal,    sprawled on his side with face pressed into the sleeve of his forearm.    his breathing comes slow,    not quite shallow but none too deeply,    ON ACCOUNT OF THE STAB OF PAIN HE FEELS AT THE CAGE OF HIS RIB,    of the blistering burn at surface of his skin every time his body moves.    he is unused to this pain,    unused to an inability of his body to dispel it and heal itself within minutes.    upon falling into this realm,    it seems his entire physical being has changed far beyond that which he has ever fathomed.    his wounds are not healing,    his adrenaline does not move him into mist,    his pain does not relent.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤperhaps a vampire is not supposed to cross into such territory,    but he had regardless,    out of curiosity’s sake rather than anything else.    clearly,    the forest had not been kind to him.

her footsteps are what forces an eye open to look up at her.    no creature meant to cut him down completely,    at least.    in that,    he draws little comfort.    HER VOICE IS WHAT CONVINCED HIM TO PUSH HIMSELF UP TO SIT ON ONE ARM,    the torn,    burnt,    bloodied fabric of his long coat twisting to accompany the motion.    he winces at another great blaze of pain.        ❝    i’m alive,    ❞        he affirms.    there should be no sense in trying to escape now.    he would rather shut his eyes and sleep for a while.        ❝    would you believe me if i came through a wall ?    a window to your realm that i’m beginning to believe was shut for a reason.    ❞
