"Let's go Kaieka, I am eager to spend time with you. more eager than you can know. It has literally felt like ages."
Illidan walks over to Kaieka, leaving Virgil behind.
"It is pleasant to see you again. I will explain things as best as I can."

I walk behind Illidan, turning around to wave goodbye to Virgil.
"See you back home.
Now, young elf, where exactly are you taking me?"

Illidan grabs her hand.
"I am taking you away from them and from all the pain that you have endured so far."
He looks at the forest surroundings.
"Or I am merely taking you for a walk in the woods. I suppose it depends on the outcome of things."

"You sure are one confusing little elf."

"I think that I'd stay for awhile. I do work with the rebels sometimes. Besides," he rubs the top of Vaara's head with his huge, furry hand, "I can't run off on my new friend."

"I imagine I am." Illidan shrugs.
"Anyway, in the future LIF is no more, but as Virgil said, the future is subject to change. You also are no more. So I wanted to see you again and warn you to leave them. I know that they give you purpose though. So I can not force you at this time to leave. I merely want to see you live and be happy."

Tensuo looks up, panning his view across the crouds in hopes of finding Jyin.
"No luck."
Tensuo continues to look out over the croud, his height giving him a good view.
"Hey Juri, do you AH!"
Tenuso raises his hand and gets a stern face as he points out over the croud.
"There he is. Come, lets go. Unless of course, you have other things to do?"
Tensuo glances down at Juri.

"I am not sure if there is true happiness in this world. It seems that the more I try to fill the void inside of me, the more I realize how useless it is to try... Oh, listen to me, I haven't been feeling myself lately, you will have to forgive me."
I feel embarassed for opening up to this stranger. I should be more guarded, there is no use in letting others know how I feel, it could only serve to cause me more pain.

Vaara gives Lunar a stern look and almost breaks it by laughing but keeps composed.
Lunar you better not. I won't let you. I could make you stay i bet. I bet i could. But i am glad you will stay. because well everyone ends up leaving me. I don't want you to be one of them as well. I know you can stay at my house if you want. We have a big house you wouldn't even have to crouch in it.
She looks at him with pleading eyes and jumps a bit. Her smile is wide and shining. She has a hand on his arm still admiring his fur as well.

"People find happiness in purpose and within themselves. When we go outside ourselves to find completion, we become a vacuum, taking and taking, never becoming full. Red Infinity gives me purpose, and I find completion in myself and in my talents. You merely enhance that what I am, Kaieka."
Illidan says to her. He smiles faintly and sits on a fallen log. Although he is Red Infinity, he is still an elf, and therefore has a kinship with nature.

I sit down next to him on the log.
"You make it all sound so easy...
So, tell me about the future. You say that LIF is no more. What else has changed in the world?"
I am eager to change the conversation off of deep, inner things and onto more surface issues.

"Gah, television is so... Blue collar. How can you watch this crap, Dinari?"
I walk out of the hotel room, and head back towards the concert. The musician is a folk musician, I hate folk music. It's all capitalist bashing. At least he looks like he showers. He's taking requests, I wonder if he'd play any anything that's not angsty and anti-capitalist.

"Violet is dead, the new dictator crushed them and you. He was not as leniant. A real bastard really. It is a hard time. The rebel movement is nothing, Red Infinity is as strong as ever, but in one way or another, everyone I care about is dead."
Illidan sighs and touches her fingers.

Lunar pauses for a moment. He's only known Vaara for a little while but she seems like an honestly kind person. And he doesn't have a room besides the rebel church...
"Alright Vaara, I'll stay at your house. I could use a nice place to stay for a little while. The rebels are pack into the old church, and with the concert it's sure to be even more crowded."

"Sounds like a pretty bleak future."
I feel his fingers on mine and do not draw my hand away. He feels warm, I always feel so cold.
"Tell me, how do I die? How do they finally defeat the amazing, undying Kaieka? Was it a glamorous death?"
