Caer'tais did not remove those diminutive, slightly wet digits as his eyes darkened, nor did they grip. They merely stayed perched on his thighs as her sapphire gaze drank in his form and company much like those dry and parched things she helped to revive. Her soul licked it's lips while the fleshy tiers that guarded her mouth parted softly as he stretched in his bloody encasement as it loosened but did not free. Curiosity was ever the expression painted delicately across her beautiful features as she watched the creature, her own head tilting slightly as she did so.<br/><br/>Then the figure spoke and that baritone rumble churned the misty air about it's mouth. She listened to his words and nibbled on them quietly as she began moving once more, fingers still touching his flesh inquisitively as they were forced to move with the rest of her.<br/><br/>"I have no fear of you for I have no need to fear my kind when they are thus enslaved." The answer was subtle and the voice a penetrating softness as she stopped at the other thigh. Those cloudless blues pooled upon his face at last where they were wont to break contact.<br/><br/>"As for the one whom put you here, well ... " She did withdraw her hand then. "It is clear that they wanted you here for an eternity. It is my desire to know why and to release you should I feel your answer deemed credible. And I think you and I both know we have an eternity to wait."<br/><br/>A glimmer of a grin leaped upon her sweet lips as they curled toward the heavens. The mists around them grew more substantial. The molecules of water began to form a thick wall of fog that shrouded this place and her discovery well while snaking tendrils of it slithered across his lower form in the branches to soothe the aching cuts. It was then, and only then, that she was able to begin to feel the throbbing power of his that had been dormant for far too long. Oh, how she ached to hear his story, and hear it she would. For as she said, they had nothing if not an infinite amount of time.<br/><br/>A giggle erupted from her pretty rosebud mouth at his question. It was as if the fog were amused as well as it withdrew and burst into glittery nothingness under him.<br/><br/>A true question deserves a true answer.<br/><br/>"Tell me how you came to be here." Her cool eyes surveyed his predicament and situation with the burgeoning curiosity of the likes of an opening rose. And though she had been alive for some time, and had experienced the ravages of deception, this dear Nephelai was certain to find herself lost in the lies and arms of another once more.
