"It has been an honour." I hear Wisteria say to our companions.. The time has come for us all to go our separate ways. Banana is back, and he is going with Lazuli to a neighbouring Town. There, they'll be a little safer than they would be in the City, and Banana can spread the word about our experiences. Tangie lived in a Village just like mine, and is going back to tell her story. We met with her family yesterday, who said that she was very welcome to return to her Village and training. That's nice. She's promising, very developed in controlling her energy, especially for a near-kit. That leaves Wisteria and I, standing together. Her voice hitches as she refuses to look me in the eye. "I guess this is where we part as well, then." She osunds so miserable. But there's absolutely no way I'm going back to my Village, and there's no way I'm leaving my only friend just after I've really started to bond with her. Especially not with how I have the suspicions I'm starting to feel something else toward her. "No." I say solidly. "It's not. We're going to find somewhere together, a Village or just some hut and we're gonna stay together." The look on her face, of disbelief and happiness make me feel...I don't know, but it's a good feeling. We start our journey onward together, and I can't help noticing the happy smile on my friend's face. The sun is setting. Cliche, huh? But I have to admit, this one is breathtaking. As I look into the bright sunshine disappearing over the horizon, my future is the best that I can imagine it to be.
Yeah, I know this one was short, but I'm hoping to get an epilogue done then some more art of Azalea :) And yes, this is the last one. There will be an epilogue, but this is the last of the actual chapters. Epilogue: Previous: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/798347964/ First: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/793243849/
