Lanak:  Unable to order his thoughts very well, Lanak pressed his fingers to his temples. The man had the faintest sense that his memories and personality were snapping apart, perhaps because he’d slept for too long. Holding himself together as he felt like he was going to fly to pieces, he gazed at his bride-to-be. She was the most powerful person on the continent. "Once you became a witch, did you not want to do something like that yourself?" Lanak inquired.

Tinasha:  "I didn’t. That would just be self-righteous."

Lanak:  "Even if that meant someone died?"

Tinasha:  "Everyone dies eventually. If I interfered in the world and prevented something from happening, it might end up killing human thought."

Lanak:  What Tinasha said smacked of a policy of everlasting total noninterference, and it sounded cruel. Such was the road she had chosen, however. Lanak, who only knew how kind and sweet she was to everything and everyone, felt a little lonely again. "Is what I’m trying to do also self-righteous?" he asked.

Tinasha:  "Yes."

Lanak:  "That’s cold."

Tinasha:  "Then you shouldn’t have asked." Tinasha laughed, and then her face turned serious. "But because you summoned me, I was able to interfere in the conflict between Tayiri and the mages a little."

Lanak:  "Aeti."

Tinasha:  "So thank you. I mean it." Tinasha concluded, a smile on her face. If this was her real smile, then what wasn’t real?

Lanak:  Lanak broke into a smile, too. "If it made you happy, I’m glad." Breaking a cycle of tragedy required action. And the time for it is now, Lanak reminded himself. Heaving a huge sigh, he turned his gaze up to the ceiling. "You don’t need to worry about a thing. I’ll protect you." Even if the whole world shunned and feared Tinasha for being a witch, he would be on her side. If he didn’t do that, then she would be all alone, just like when she was a little girl. Lanak repeated his vow as though a command to himself. "I’ll protect you, Aeti." Perhaps that sentiment was the one thing that hadn’t faded from Lanak’s mind after four hundred years. Tinasha was no longer a little girl, but things were still the same. Aeterna would forever be a weak and helpless person who existed for him. "I’m going to sleep for a bit." Lanak declared. He then retired to his chambers.
