Once within the midnight gloom, while I denied my lover's doom,
I brought to mind our time together, our heady days of yore.
While I pondered, reminiscing, while his neck was gently glistening,
Dripping blood, drop by drop, unto the floor.
"Not my fault," I muttered, "Healing is such a chore.
It was just a scratch and nothing more.”

Paiyo's words with fire consumed me, and my thoughts turned dark, entomb me;
I only berate myself with anger, your life I could not restore.
My companions that I would not face, nor that I deserve this grace.
No amount of fury could replace our love, love forever more—
And so I resolved to travel with you once more,
You and I forever more.

Deep within the musty stacks of Mhachi library racks,
I came upon a quaint and curious tome of forgotten lore.
Its lovely words were quite entreating, as my heart grew faster beating,
My sorrow it was fast defeating, Avere's body it could restore:
A perfect spell, much more than I bargained for—
The cost? Your soul and nothing more.

Presently I grew depressed, to Avere I had confessed,
"Avere, my love, it was my fault you carry this chlor."
Sacrifice myself, my friends, would that be enough to make amends?
All sent to voidsent ends, the pain I could not ignore.
When faced with this dark choice, I felt as if I was done for.
Naught inside and nothing more.

Ultimately I did accept; I found the place that I had kept
The wedding invitations I had made during our heady days of yore.
To Liavinne, my vows unbroken; to Paiyo Reiyo, with words unspoken;
And to the brave adventurer who reopened my eyes to love before;
It is time to celebrate my union with the man that I adore.
Quoth the Ahriman “Nevermore.”

At the midst of the night; two siblings stood engaged with Brown Bears.
Her soul was consumed by darkness by her final breath the younger sibling swore his oath.
"I shall protect the treasure of your soul, my dear sister" he spoke in loyalty.
As the roaring falls splashed against the rocks there she stood.
May those who find this map seek unity within their family.
