CHAPTER 37 PEACE

Eight months later
Dear Rhysand
This old man who is keeping me in his humble adobe is a maniac, but then he is also a wonderful teacher and a very kind being.
I like elder Clesmond.
The first week I spend here was a combination of moping around and crying with consuming all his sugary supplies, to say he wasn't happy was an understatement.
As soon as the week ended, he hauled me out of my bed, his one glare made me feel like a child caught stealing cookies.
He was like "Go and fetch me apples!"
"Go pluck the ripened grapes!"
"Go and bath stupid girl!"
"I swear if you cry one more time I am going to throw you into the pond and that Lycan of yours...I will throw him too."
A fragile short, old, man with sassy attitude and long dress dragging behind him (making him a bit cute) claiming that he can throw you into a pond was hilarious but his glare....that shut me up...for good.
Everytime I stare into the distance like a love struck fool thinking about you he magically remembers his apples and order me to fetch it.
I tell you Rhy he knows that while I am thinking about you, all smiles and grinning widely I won't refuse any work.. just do it in a flow.
One day he said my eating habits were unhealthy I pounced on him, you won't believe Rhy, the hundred year elder screamed like a teenage girl making me clutch my stomach and laugh,
He is like the grandfather I never had.
(He taught me how to communicate with birds!!! Can you believe!)
Now you ask me why I call him crazy.
Well two weeks ago there was a downpour of hail in the forests of Yarenis making every little vegetation die down.
Now the old man is very fond of his white Lily pond but the morning after I saw him shouting profanities at the lake with so much anger that I was startled.
I ignored it for sometime but he got only louder chewing my ear off.
I made my way to him only to see him glaring angrily at a small white Lily bud which survived the hailstorm.
(Yes Rhy, he glares alot)
Upon asking the man, he said that it was all the bud's fault that the lake was destroyed making me watch him incredulously.
His old age was catching up to him.
(I hope he doesn't reads this letter or he is going to scold me....again.)
So my next half-an-hour was spend giving him an earful that first of all that little thing doesn't control the weather and how it was beautiful and magical to endure such harsh conditions and still be fresh and ready to bloom.
And to my astonishment he replied with a 'so are you'.
And I realized Rhy that what he was talking about. The world sure had been unfair to me but it wasn't my fault, I was worthy because I survived it and didn't become an evil, cruel being. I didn't left my kindness.
I deserve to be happy.
I love you so much Rhy, you make me want to bloom into something beautiful.
You make me feel beautiful.
I miss you, your touch, your eyes...just everything.
I like when I see myself a better version of me.
I want to make you proud just like you have always done to me.
With all my love to my God

Dear Medusa
The first few days were angry blur, I was angry on the world for taking you away for me but soon the meaning of your promise dawned upon me.
You weren't away from me, you were there just at some distance all safe and sound improving yourself.
Later some days, a werewolf came to visit me.
I was expecting a boring speech of gratitude but was surprised when he hugged me tightly.
After the initial shock was over I came to know that he was my first friend, he thought I was dead after I disappeared.
He invited me to his house to meet his mate and children. They were beautiful people babygirl.
His mate had just given birth to a precious little girl and for the first time in my life Medusa, I swear to you I was scared to touch that tiny little bundle of sunshine fearing that she would wither with my touch.
I was so happy to know that I could live a normal life too and despite how Valium tarnished my childhood people were there to accept me as I am.
And I realized Medusa, what you did had given me so much control over my life, made me understand and know myself better.
How will I ever thankyou princess... I love you so much.
Also, I never even had any idea that how active and sugar high the childhood version of me was.
In childhood I had always dreamt of visiting tribes around the world and wrote letters in my broken latin to their leaders whenever a trader from their lands came.
(I am learning latin now)
As soon as I decided to see and explore the extravagant mountains of Redbreech and sent a letter to the chief of the tribe two weeks ago asking for their permission for doing so out of respect, they sent twenty men to retrieve me.
Looks like that they remembered my tiny version and were ecstatic that I finally decided to pursue my desire of hunting and learning with them for a few days.
You won't believe Medi the people have been nothing but kind here. They ask about you alot.
They were so enthralled when I told them my mate has lilac eyes. Women and children made a huge circle around me while I described your beauty sitting on a rock in between.
You got yourself some serious worshippers.... including me babygirl.
When I return I am bringing you a cap of peacock feathers, that the tribal say is only fit for a true Luna.
I miss you so much baby girl.
You made me rediscover myself. You made me grow.
I am so proud of you baby.
With my love
Your Rhysand

When two people so dedicated to eachother fight for each other the universe listens.
