"Thanks," she said nodding slowly before speeding back over the land to her family and her home.

"Where have you been?" Damien growled slipping out of the shadows. "You should have been home hours ago."

"Just...wondering..." she answered quietly.

"You know it is not safe alone out there for you. You are asking for someone to come for you. Lene is talking babble again about some son of lightning. I cannot make sense of it. You should go see if you can." He blocked off her backwards path, body stiff and rigid and no hint of warmth in his eyes.

Serenata tilted her head curiously but went off in search of her sister. "Lene?" she sat down beside her sibling. "Is everything ok?"

"He's so sad Serenata...It's breaking my heart...how does anyone live like that?" Lene's eyes were as big as saucers and filled with tears when she turned them to her sister.

"The son of the lightning. You can't feel it? How can you not feel it? It's all I can feel. He's so alone and sad. There's life all around him, yet all he feels is...well...nothing. Just sorrow, suffering, and loneliness."

"Son of Lightning?" she frowned. "Lene, I've had a rough night, it would really help if you started making sense."

"That's all I know...I don't know a name...But I do know what he looks like." She blushed, "And he's very handsome....but so sad...I keep trying to make him feel better by sending him nice dreams where we're together and he's not so lonely...but he's only sadder when he wakes up..."

"Who is he?" she asked her sister curiously. "How did you come across him?"

"I snuck away from Damien while we were out walking. I was overtaken with this unbearable sadness, so I followed it back to him. I scared him when I came out of the brush...but he didn't touch me!" She frowned again and looked down at the ground, "But I wanted him too...and I wanted to touch him..." Another blush of embarrassment, "So I spoke to him mentally and have been trying to keep in touch that way so he doesn't drown in his sorrows. Damien almost found me that time, so I can't risk going back, but Sister, I think this hurts worse than any scolding Damien could come up with."

"...It hurts you?" she asked not fully understanding. "Is this one of our people?" No...it couldn't have happened to her sister as well...not so soon...

"He's not one of us. But it still hurts. I feel like if I didn't stay with him in his dreams I'd die."
