*walking into the room she simply laid a blood red rose on top of the shrine*
hey Jerrit...sorry i didnt come sooner, but i really couldnt think of words to describe the kind of person you were to me. always so kind even when i would do something incredibly stupid...you were always so full of life and taught me a great deal about what it means to be on the "good side". i hope that everyone will remember you, and keep your fire burning in their hearts.
*smiles kissing two fingers, placing them gently on top of the shrine, whispers a soft elven prayer and leaves*

*He walked in late at night, and sat down against a wall trying to think back about what he liked so much about Jerrit*
Little brother... how far have I gone from remembering those glourious battles for everyone, and everything no matter how little I thought I could accomplish. How far have I gone that I place a value on lives?? A price on salvation? A time for such things... How far have I gone?

*Seraph walks in and kneels at the shrine, lets the cherry blossoms from his home tree be swept from his hand and twirl around the shrine*
"I should've done this a long time ago....it will be different with you not here....i barely knew you....but i could tell you were someone great....I hope i can become great like the people around here become great like you.....farewell and help us from above....and thanks for everything you have done....."
*puts his hand together and does a silent prayer, cuts a himself slightly*
"This is something my family did whenever a great man died..."
*Gets the blood from his wound and does a small little symbol on the ground near the shrine, He gets up and closes his eyes* "Farewell...."*Seraph walks away from the shrine*

*from the Main lobby, she wanders into the shrine, her eyes fall upon the pedestal, her voice is soft, and comforting*.... I never thought I'd come here.... *she places her hand on the cold stone*
This heart was woven of human joys and cares,
Washed marvelously with sorrow, swift to mirth.
The years had given him kindness. And dawn glares,
And sunset, and the colors of the earth.
He had seen movement, and heard music; known
Slumber and waking; loved; gone proudly friended;
Felt the quick stir of wonder; sat alone;
Touched flowers and furs and cheeks. All this ended.
There are waters blown by changing winds to laughter
And lit by the rich skies, all day. And after,
Frost, with a gesture, stays the winds that dance
And wandering loveliness. He leaves a white
Unbrokn glory, a gathered radiance,
A width, a shining peace, under the night.
-Rupert Brooke (1887-1915)
*she recites this poem softly, a tear runs down her cheek*.... You were always like a father to me.... My.... darling.... brother...
((For all you smart people who recognize that poem... Yes, I tweaked a couple of words... xp ))

*Orb walks outside, and reaches Jerrit's Shrine. He gently sets Ana down, taking care that she is comfortable... even though she is unconcious.* ...here. o.O' Hey, where'd you go?

*there is a pale misty-blue glow at the far edge of the shrine... Nar steps through and almost glides to where Ana is resting, she pauses and looks at Orb*.... Before I do this... I... have to tell you something.... *she looks away*.... But... I don't know if I should....

Tell me...? *Orb's eyes flicker to Ana, then back to Narmolanya.* What do you mean to say...?

....*she turns back to face him, her crystal-blue eyes look almost silver in the moonlight*.... Anastasia and I.... have bonded... in the last few months... I... had warned her of the consequences... But she was bent on saving your life... And... Now I know why.... I... know how she felt... For... I... feel the same way... Orb, the man dear to my heart... You are... my first.... and last... *tears run down her cheeks*.... I would like to ask you for one parting gift.... Please... Remember my name... Remember.... Narmolanya....

*Orb's eyes go wide in surprise... he seems unable to speak, for a moment. Then he nods, solemnly, and surprises himself again... by crying a single tear. When he speaks, he doesn't know half of what he's saying... the words just slip out. But they are the right words... they are the important ones.*
Lady sai... Narmolanya... I will bear thy name to the eternities... To the far gates of the Never Were, I will carry your name and your life. I swear it on my clan of the Wireweb, my ka-brother Jerrit, and my dearheart Ana.

*she smiles* And that is why, Orb o' the Wireweb, I shall happily sacrifice my life... *she reaches out and catches the tear with her fingers, never once touching him... she brings the tear to her lips and kisses it*.... I consider this a blessing.... *she looks at Ana then looks up at Orb for one last time... As if trying to capture every detail of his face, to savor this last memory, for several moments, she is unable to avert her gaze from his face*

*Even though she has not said it, Orb seems to understand just what this would cost for her... He wishes there was something he could give to her, but... a bauble would soon be of no purpose. He feels helpless to repay her, but his eyes reflect his gratitude in a way that he would never be able to put into words.*

*she smiles once last time, places her hands over Ana's forehead, she gazes at the sky* ... the beautiful night sky... how those stars twinkle... just like his eyes... his.... beautiful.... green.... eyes... *she closes her eyes, never to open them again, she whispers softly*
Elith Naereth... Silla el gauthanen... Se nin o se nayeth...
*the pale misty-blue light surrounds the two women. Nar's hands begin to tremble, her fingertips glow an electric blue... The wind whirls around the two of them.... Soon, blood trickles down Nar's closed eyes, ears, nose, and mouth... Her neat bun, unravels to reveal long, fiery red hair.... Nar screams loudly, blood trickling from her hairline... In a split second, everything was over. Nar had fallen back, her hair flowed over the stone, her delicate and slender body lay rigid and very still... However... Ana's breathing became normal... She was no longer comatose, just... asleep. In deep, and peaceful slumber, she curls up on the hard floor... The air remains still... But Nar's shriek could still be heard... Echoing.... echoing...*

*Orb wipes the dirt from his hands as he walks from her grave, humming the obvious tune. Was that a touch morbid? He didn't think so, but he could see how someone would say it was. He'd marked her grave with a small, white cross. He didn't know if she was christian or not... but it wasn't too relevant. Orb wasn't a christian either, but he still wanted a cross on his grave when he died.*

*The shrine which would usually be barren and cold, is now filled with a lavish array of flowers and draperies. There is a table in the far corner, decked with extravagant dishes and fruits. There were about 15-20 tables set for the guests. The main altar had a intricate display of white roses and lilies, upon a marble pedastle and a marble altar. The area glittered with fervor and excitement*
