[ She continues to watch him in her half-dreaming state. Different emotions and memories attempt to surface that might wake her, but the exhaustion keeps her from waking entirely. Her head tilts forward slightly with the call to the deeper sleep once more tugging at her. She does not wish to heed it just yet. She must make certain he is well...
Not even a Warrior of Light can save everyone. She prays that the very least she can save those she loves. When Haurchefaunt's life slipped away and the pain was evident in Aymeric's eyes? She felt so very powerless to do anything. Even more so in Norvrandt, yet, those memories and dreams are far from her current mind.
Alkaid nestles into his hold once more. Her eyes have shut now, but she stubbornly clings to being able to speak with him. She loves his voice and the way he speaks. ]
...you embraced me, didn't you? [ A question as opposed to a statement, unsure if she remembers what she wishes happened. After they ahd undone the shackles and tried to keep him from falling forward. ] I won't tell anyone.
[ Her body laxes once more as sleep tries to pull her under once more. He is safe all because of her? Something inside disagrees, but she can barely grasp onto why. ]
... I'll do whatever I have to so you can remain safe. Even if it means staying in Ishgard. E-even if it means loving you from afar... because I'm a Warrior of Light.
[ Of course, she is to be his lady-wife, and thus she has no reason to love him at a distance. She is able to pour all her love and devotion into him. Dreams, especially those of another time, have the tendency to have details slip.
Her hand at his chin curls up against her chest as she nestles into him once more. No space remains between them, and she too feels very safe indeed. ]
