[SIZE=16]Quill opens his door to his home near Castle Raxwell. As he enters he see what he usually when he enters his home, Gloins failed attempt at decorating the hall of his house. Quill looks around and smiles, knowing how long it took the stubborn dwarf to get all those head pieces up on the wall and all the cursing by the dwarf he had to endure. [/SIZE][SIZE=16] [/SIZE] [SIZE=16] As he walks around the house, in the still blanket of darkness, he notices other chest from his friends that he has let use his home as a minor storage house. He chuckles lightly when he walks to the far back room and notices Vin’s door and how completely covered in traps it is. Clearly he thinks Vin has trust issues that he will never overcome if he hides behind traps. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16] [/SIZE][SIZE=16] Quill lightly sighs as he turns and looks at the newly placed crates filled with potions, arrows and other items and his thoughts slip into thought of Stone and the upcoming battle. He whispers softly “Beryl give me strength for what I am about to do in you name..” He slowly takes a deep sigh and continues on talking to her. “ I just don’t want people to be scared, I want them to know that together we can when this battle and this war. But I see people with doubt in their eyes and they think that this battle is just for Stone. It is not.” He stops for a moment and closes his eyes. “ This is the is just another step to show people that together we will win and that Bloodstone and his army of demons and other evil races can be defeated. Help me Mother, help me open people’s eyes to see. Help me be a leader and give courage to those that are scared to fight.” He opens his eyes and looks around the storage room, gazing at the shadows cast down the moonlight breaking through the windows.[/SIZE][SIZE=16][SIZE=16] [/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=16] [/SIZE][SIZE=16] [SIZE=16] He moves on into the living room and begins to start a fire in the fireplace and unrolls his bedroll. He spreads it down in front of the fireplace and slides down on top propping himself on his side with his back to the fire and looks around his barren living room as the shadows of the fire dance around the room. A light glistens in the far corner of the room and he focuses his eyes on it and he sees it to be a small nugget of mithril that he and his friends went in search of and found. He smiles as he remembers that trip and the exciting time they had. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16] [/SIZE][SIZE=16]Quill rolls onto his back still in thought of the past month of his long life. He reaches for his front pocket of his pack and pulls out a finely cut diamond. He holds it in his fingertips slowly rotating it so that the light of the fire could reflect off its perfection. He smiles at the small diamond, admiring the cut and the beauty in the gem. He whispers lightly “What joy you have brought into my life.” He smiles reflecting when he went with her to gather the diamonds. “To think I almost didn’t go.” He grins. “What a foolish mistake that would have been huh?”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16][FONT=Times New Roman']He lets out a heavy sigh as he once again looks around at the shadows that are now dancing lower on the walls. “ In this short time I’ve known her she has giving me so much joy and love in my life. She also gives me hope that we can get through this war and that there will be something waiting for us. For the first time I can talk to her as the way I can talk to you, openly and truthfully. Thank you Mother for bringing us together, thank you for sending me my angel of shadows. With you and her beside me I know what I fight for.. For the first time I feel whole and complete. All I ask from you is keep her safe and protected in your arms. Show her the love you have for her. In your name I pray.” He slowly closes his eyes as the fire slowly fades the light from the room and only thing left is blackness. [/SIZE][SIZE=16] [/SIZE]
