RoleChapter 35 A Diamond for a Pebble Added Wed Sep 7 19:54:40 2022 at level 51:Through time I grew closer and closer to Dichael. His path, like mine, was bent toward the Light. But his walk was shorter than mine, by quite some amount of time.
In a way I always knew this would be so. Humans do not live as long as my kind. They burn brighter but faster. I am an ember, I am metal on fire, and I somehow fell in love with a man made of timber, made of cloth. Burning quickly and absolutely. He achieved his goals, first to shed the darkness he had found himself under, and later, by the androsphinx as I was, his soul was Lightened. It was a joyous time. But it was short. Shorter than seemed fair to him, shorter than seemed fair to me.
Losing Odren. Losing Dohri. Losing Dichael. It was so much loss. I had the things they had given me. Wisdom to spare, but also gifts, including a diamond carved into the shape of a drow woman in the snow. In time Lady Azorinne would console me and remind me of the long years I had left to live, and that loss was the price I paid for them. But in the present of it, and without yet achieving my own goals of redemption, I was distraught and prone to despair.
I came to the lake near the mines where the child I had strangled so many years ago, only to see a young boy in the same spot. I smiled at him and he returned the smile. I asked him if he was awaiting his parents, and he said he was, and that he was scared they would not arrive. I offered to wait with him until they did.
He told me he got lonely. I told him I had been lonely too, but I remembered my friends and that helped a little bit. Even if they were gone.
I said, one of my closest friends gave me a gift, and it helped me remember him. But I don't think I need it anymore, would you like to have it?
He nodded, excitedly, and I reached into my bag and pulled out the diamond statue. I had no more need for it, so I handed it over.
You can keep it for as long as you need to, and maybe one day you can give it someone else who needs it, I said. Gifts are nice ways of showing people we care.
With that, and with a face full of joy, he dove into the lake. At first, I was concerned, and thought I might need to jump in after him. A moment or two passed and he returned to the surface.
I found the one for you! And he handed me a pebble as he shouted his discovery.
I took the pebble, a plain blue orb that suddenly meant the world to me and thanked him, holding back tears in my eyes.
I think I hear my parents, he said, and with a wave he was gone.
We're never alone for long.
