Sorry on Silence.

As above, sorry to be quiet. But time's been, well, unkind, and leave it with that. Killing drive for the most part, and even wanting to be more than a shadow on the site generally.

"No. None will disturb her rest." The stone heart spoke impassively. Dessicated, dry corpses punctuated the gloom and its prowess in enforcing that statement. "Begone." The conversation fully at an end.

"No! You haven't the damnedest idea what's been paid, what bloods been spilled, and what its cost!" Firefly retorted. "What would lashtada say, knowing that some of her people, the last remnants of her kin were cast aside by you? What kind o!" his words sailing distant with his body.

"Firefly!" Water Lotus screamed running to lift up the battered leatherwing. His wounds slowly closing from the mammoth backhand.

The golem had turned far quicker than twenty feet of stone had any means of. It's glare, and glower, deep as it looked to them, never departing from the ornate, scaled book behind it, resting, nestled into the mountain itself.

Slowly rising again, firefly stumbling a little to sit heavily before the golem. A cruel laugh to start from him. Sadness, bitterness, anger, and rage echoing from the tiny frame of the mage. "They were right.. The world, just doesn't care. It doesn't. It's happy to shank you, cut you, and leave you bleeding out for naught but a copper or two. The only thing it respects it power."

Rolling on his hind hooves, his words just bursting forth in a spoken cadence of emotions.. "I've waltzed through hell, gates long behind me." to roll forth and down, "Choices, even some murder. But you know, nothing I regret." His hooves pacing about, but never past the golems range.

"Why im here, she'd do the same." A look back to water lotus, his words not slowly from a hypnotic tone, "Minus of course the murder. But you know, she's got a heart to match." Smiling at that.

"Gods knows why we've found a match. A heart of gold, and a crazy bat." His chuckle momentary, but pressing onward. "Weeks worth of time to find some common ground.. To find a soul worth saving." A nod of knowing more to himself there. The smile there for a half second before fading.

His wings taking him up to the golem, "I'm exiled from all I once tried to save." Spitting a little blood to the side. "Family that won't see, the light of day. The world needs light like she provides." His hoof unerringly focusing on the blue unicorn.

"Her spirit a guide to what we couldn't see. I've broke taboo's, and shattered light." Landing down with his resumed pacing. "Teaching her how to speak with the dead in the night."

A shake of the head, and a grin "She kindness, a likeness, what I can never be. Still forgives me, I mean, have you seen us?"

The rambling of words ever echoing on, shaking his head. "I'm rambling. Its crazy. I'll botch this, why can't I? Stop, just the words just"

"Keep flowing out. I oh... Don't mind the crazy. It's very liberating. The life i've hads been, just.."

"I have no words to describe.."

"A mind in breaking. Hope it doesn't faze me. Just, give me a moment to breathe in what im trying."

"To fate ive cast, and live at last. For only in death are we free at last. Even if you kill me, I'll have said whats been with me so long. "

"Take it in, and go."

"Lives-aren't-worth-being-without-a-heart-and-a-soul. To-fight-to-die and time-so-very-fleeting."

"Kara, kiss my ass. She's my water lotus. You wont have either of our lives."

"Breathe in and listen to the arcane. "

"Firefly.." water lotus began.

"Screw it all! Screw the tests! I just want to give her.. I would fight the world for her... Damn the world for her!"

"Lashstada! Will you finally hear me? Through you the blood that lingers in my veins. You are one that we need so bad!"

"I don't care, what im now saying. It needs to be said, no matter who is voicing it. I'm not in my right mind, broken and scrambling. The right words just flow as I think of them. In the dark, it was peaceful serenity. Your light poked its way in, offered more to aspire me. Life's little games, harsh little games. I won't stop trying these, to face all in the way.

"From restoring the queen, to fixing the land. Go from prisma and kadiston, toruminant halls. Go from death's door to the very heavens to soar. From the highest of peaks, to the pits very bottom."

"Love will endure, You unfeeling stone. To face down all before you, no matter who is the beast. Worth the fight, no matter the cost, this I know. It's worth more than magic, and being alone."

"I don't care, what the price I pay. Heh!"

"I have to have lost it, trying to sway the stone heart of a god. Doesn't change a single damn thing. I'm baring my soul. Can barely stand me. And how it hurts me. To speak these words to one like you." looking up to the figure defiantly. "It's worth the blood I'll pay."

"I'll, strive, oh! It's a little hard to breathe.." his words ending lightly with his lapse to unconsiousness and the ground.

A little song idea, some of the actions not out there, but well, muse wanted something in just breaking.
