Faye closed her eyes as she let the waves slide over her feet. She was letting herself bask momentarily in her senses and the soft wet sand that her bare toes dug into happily. She stretched, and yawned softly. Her fingers slid into her hair and she freed the long dark locks, letting them shift down around her shoulders. She smiled as the salty breeze floated through them and flicked the strands into the air. The warm sun tingled on her skin as she adjusted from the dark cold night that her body knew. Faye felt her muscles relaxing into the comfort, letting tension slip away, leaving her in peace.
It wasn't long before she heard footsteps on the sand interrupting the otherwise flawless sound of the ocean. She turned her face slightly, to see him out of the corner of her eye. Calmly, she lifted her skirts, ignoring the damp, sand speckled hem and stepped forward. Faye curtsied and gave him small apologetic smile.
"I am afraid this was my last resort. I am sorry for bringing you here, but my healing was turning out to be far from strong enough for you. With Keovari's help, I may have been able to get you on your feet... Hopefully he will catch up to us," She offered softly, "But for now, welcome to a portion of my subconscious."
Keovari could not stop himself from glancing back at the woman in his arms. It took all of his strength of thought to keep enough attention on where he was walking and the forest demanded that precious attention. He trudged on through the snow, cradling the warm body in his arms.
Her soft voice surprised him, and he paused to look down, "Yes?" but she called out again, and this time it was louder and directed him to keep moving. He immediately sped up, wanting to find Faye and hopefully get Mystical quickly to safety.
"Once we find her, it will be easier to take care of you. I am sorry, my Lady."
He pushed on, feeling himself moving faster as the snow thinned. He glanced curiously at it. The sparkling white sea seemed to be at low-tide here. He suddenly made the connection. Something was very wrong if Faye was filtering that much natural energy through her and he was starting to sense someone else with her, and though he could not place the aura, it seemed familiar.
"Faye?"
