"Love, we can deal with this, as we can with anything we face.  You always were too nimble for heavy armor, and I will always be your shield.  You will just have to let me protect you, as you protect me."<br/><br/>Karanissa watches her love leave the room before beginning preparations, offering a prayer to the Goddess as she pours salt around the room in neat curves.  She has not yet donned the torn robes, not wanting the improperly hanging outfit to chafe, though she carefully folds it and sets it where she can quickly change.  She has much to occupy her mind as she works, thoughts of her own life, her wife and their future together, worries over a demon whose motives are entirely unknown, and a voyage to who knows where.<br/><br/>It's all so exciting!
