[ All he needs to be truly happy is to have her nearby and the knowledge that she and those that he loves most are safe, that he can protect them. And of course, he has long wanted to travel with her, to see parts of the world that she has been to and helped save. And now that they are here, all he can think about is not about what she has done as the Warrior of Light, but what they might experience as a couple.

Of course, that was not to be, but had it been, I would have made the journey without a second's thought.
