-"I have something to tell you that you will not like to hear, but I must say it, lest it breaks me."
-I inhale deeply.
-"I feel for you what you feel for your faith. A deep devotion, a boundless love."
-I close my eyes.
-"At first, I admit, I wanted to eat you. I wanted to do nasty things to you..."
-I pause.
-"Oh. but that has long subsided. You showed me love and friendship. No one has ever done that to me. So I began to want you and your perfect love."
-I turn to the floor.
-"I am aware that your faith prevents you from loving me in any way other than friendship. So I will return to the League of the Godless."
-I turn toward the door.
-"But know this....you are the only woman I have ever loved, and that I ever shall..."
-I face away and start to leave.

Her tears started again. She was so confused at what he wanted. Unable to voice her thoughts now she just decided to send them to him.
~I was content being a servant but i could never get what i really wanted. Which was you. I would never have the one prize i sought so hard for.....Yes i thank Omadon but soon i will be above that. I will be above all emotion. Imagine what i can be master. I can be what i have always wanted. And i will not feel the regret of never having you. Never winning you. I will not feel anything i do not wish to feel. I will be better even than you are master. For even you fall victim sometimes. I shall never do it again.~
She reached up to touch him. She felt like sobbing but could not only small tears crept down her cheek. The water in her system was slowly turning to the ectoplasm. She didn't have too much left to spare for tears.

I take in all of his words and watch as he turns to leave.
"Must love be something that separates us? Cannot there be love and devotion so deep that is channeled in the form of friendship?"
I have never had anyone tell me that they love me. I am sure that every woman wants to be loved. I feel within me the urge rise up to join with the rest of womankind and be held and loved, but I know that my fate is different than that. I cannot live a normal life. I cannot give myself to a man, unless God calls me to do that within the bonds of marriage, but I have resigned myself to a lonely life.
I had not thought that that lonely life would separate me from my friends as well.
"Love me like a brother, Aries. Do not leave. Know that you have my love as well, I am your sister. I can give you that love."

"Look at what he is doing to you? Can you sacrifice so much for power? Look at me? I have all the power in the universe, and I am empty, bitter, and angry. It is the thirst that can not be quenched. Jareth, I can not even love you. My heart has grown small and dark from years of practicing my dark art. Do not take that path. You are young and vibrant. The world is yours to enjoy. You must live.....live differently than I have....that is my desire for you." Kaschei responds with scincerity.

"The blood of my family was cursed by Kei long ago. We turn into... this." He runs a hand along the wrappings around his face. "Recent events have accelerated the process on me though."

-"I could try. But I long for your kisses. I long to hold your small frail body against my own. I fear that if I remain here with you, feeling as I do, It will weather me away, until I have nothing left."
-I consider her proposition, love her as a brother or as a friend.
-I could do those things.
-No, it would be too hard.
-I will return to the League and forget about these fool feelings.
-I will live another thousand years in the silent solitude of my near immortality.
-I will forget what love is and let the world poison me once more.
-I will let my eyes cloud over until I am blind to beauty like hers.

She looks at him and smiles her hand touching his arm then falling back to the bed.
~There is nothing to be done Master. For it has begun. There is no turning back. However if i choose i can retain my emotions. Omadon promised me. And I trust him. He is the closest thing to a love i have. But to retain the feelings i retain the hurt and the abandonment you have caused. I do not wish to feel love for you anymore. I am tired of pining for you. I need to move on and in forgetting i can. In losing love i can. I know deep inside you favor me. I have always known whether you do or not. I think this is my destiny. You wish for me to live differently than you. i shall. I have already. Maybe you should use your magic to heal your own heart. My desire for you is to become more like me. Let yourself love Master.

"What did your family do to deserve such a curse? Are you telling me that my son has some sort of demon blood running through him? I will simply ask Keitoleinen to lift the curse. Perhaps he will lift it from you as well."

"I'm sorry if I did things to lead you on. I surely didn't mean to do so."
I look down at the floor. How can he love me? I am not the type of girl that men fall for. I am plain and simple, I am unlearned. I can't understand why he would have such feelings. I wish he didn't.
"I don't want to lose your friendship..." I look up.
"But I don't want you to be in turmoil either.
I can bear to live a life void of friendships, I do not want to cause you any sort of mental anguish. If your feelings change... please come back."

"I was once a normal human like you, who sought power. It was through power and controlling people that I could love myself. I am nothing without my power. So I have spent endless years practicing my art. It warped and darkened me beyond recognition. I no long know how to feel. No...that is wrong. I do feel for my dragon. But we are both alike. Twisted in darkness. Oomadon is like me. He has a plan for you. I am certain of that. Love from our kind is not genuine, it can never be. But what can be done? I must accept that I will not have my servant that that you will never be the same."

Peter watches Aries come and go. "That was interesting. The Dragon loves you? That explains why he hasn't been being so destructive lately."
Something inside Peter is swelling, ready to explode. What is it? It feels... feeling is new to him.
Rage. But not exactly rage....
Jealisy...
"Chastity... if he goes back to the way he was..." Peter looks up at her, moving his eyes from the floor. "I'll have to kill him. You know that."

"My grandfather and his friends were in the wars. They destroyed on of Kei's temples. He cursed their families, including mine.
Not demonic, just... there's not words for it. These are side effects of the curse. We're forbbien to touch what has been marked by Kei. What's happening to me is a extra effect, their different for each member of my family."

-"I have things I need to think about."
-I turn to walk out the door.
-"If you need me, Chastity, I have an office at the League. Good bye for now....until...."
-I do not answer.
-I walk out the door.
-I fly away.

Her brow furrowed. She was becoming confused. What if what Kaschei said was true? What if Omadon did not feel anything at all for her. WHat if he was only using her like Kascei had. To obtain some means to an end.
~To think you a mere mortal...lol. Love Mac, share all with him. He is not like you. Ther brief time i spent with him he treated me more decently than you ever did. well except for our trysts of passion. *she looks away from him* I do not know what plans Omadon may have if not the ones we discussed. But it is too late for me Master. Once started it can not be reversed. This whole time i have tried to get you to love me, to want me, and to need me. And only now i find out that even if the first 2 can not be fulfilled the last is. Kaschei i am no longer yours. I am now mine. I control my own destiny now. Please understand. I was no good as i was before. Now i can be so much back. Loving you was killing me. You will always have Jareth. But she is no more. I am now Morrighan. And if you need me i shall be there for you. For you started this hunger for power inside of me and i will never forget you master.~

The door open, Count Magnus stands in it. "Hello Kaschei. Come to check up on us?" He steps inside, his hands at his sides, his long gray hair swishing as he moves, "Concerned for our safety perhaps?"
