Words bearing threats tumble from her mouth, but her body begs for rest...
She is screaming for aggression, but somewhere, deep inside the ruins that were once a great mind, she wills him to see more...
To know her pain, then end it.
He does see, and he acts...
A blur of black...
...then a sickening crack...
...and she falls to the ground for the final time.
"They say death is something to fear.Something that steals you away while you sleep and you can do nothing about it. Few know, though, that when nothing feels the same and there's no way out, that the greatest thing death can be, is a way out of your mind, and a way out of your broken life."
Isa: I was wondering about that. >n>
It's alright... but.. you owe me a new pair of lungs. I coughed my old pair up because I was laughing too hard. ;__;
And now I'm crying because I wish she'd come back. We miss her already..
I apologize for not being there in her final moments.
This brought me to tears. Bittersweet, they would say.
Hm, goodbye Evania. May you rest in peace. ♥
The hardest part
is when it is time to say goodbye,
and even though I wished I could make you stay,
I know I got to let you spread your wings and fly
Though it's only been a short while, I've never had a friend like you
But now that i know you will be leaving
I don't know what to do
Your love and understanding
Have always brought me the bond i know we have
I wish that I could keep you here
Tied to me with a rope.
I ask with confusion and pain
When will I see you again?
The miles soon stretched between us
What will happen to this bond?
Will we reunite to find
That this special tie is gone?
So many questions I have
My heart filled with fear
Dreading you will leave
me shedding tears
Unlike this desperate aching
In my heart that won't let go
Which leads me now to tell you
Something you must know
The friendship you have given me
The joy you bring my soul
Has filled me with such strength
And love once unforetold
How can it be so short?
This time we've spent together
I thought you would remain here
And stay 'til forever
Sadly, wishful thinking
As I now have come to see
But remember please this thought
When you think of me
We may soon be separated
But I'll remember, just the same
Forever in my heart
Is where you will remain
I wish that when you leave
We'd remain the best of friends
You'll be in my thoughts
"'Till I see you again
How can I say goodbye?
No words, but just tears fall
From my eyes and sobbing heart
That knows you after all
The hours spent together
Will soon dwindle down to few
Forcing me to let go
And start this year anew
Without you here to talk to
Searching for a friendly face
That knows all too well
They can never be replaced"
There were no words. Even if she had taken the time to find something to say before the body of her fallen friend, it wouldn't have been enough. Words would mean nothing now, especially to the fallen doe.
Looking at her now, it was easy to see the physical wounds. The missing hind leg, the scars that she had once found hideous, that were now so endearing, the torn ears, the blind eye. However, it would have been impossible to see the mental pain this beautiful doe had once gone through. Now, she was at ease, resting. She looked peaceful, almost like she was merely sleeping, and would rise in only a matter of minutes to welcome the deer around her and dry their eyes. Sadly, Evania would never rise again, no matter how much they all wished it.
Leviathann stared at the angle at which the doe had fallen, and carefully reached out to realign the part of her neck that seemed out of place. She then pulled back and untucked one leg from under her chest. As carefully as she could, she nudged a feather from behind her own ear and placed behind Evania's.
There are many things the red bull does not understand. More so things that the residence of the great Endless Forest take for granted in knowing. But Gustiro knew death, he witnessed more then his fair share. A still body. The cries of loved ones bursting and then quieting into soft whimpers. So familiar. Too familiar. It was almost like home.
He had heard the commotion of an angry Evania not far off. He had ignored it. Burying his face deep into the ivory fur of Dinah Moon. He was upset with her, upset with Evania. Angry, hurt. Even after defending her earlier she had taken to the company of his enemy Leviathann. No... He much rather soak into the sleeping form of his great white desire selfishly rather then offering his body as shield and weapon.
Until a sickening snap echoed through the forest. His head had risen, his chest grew suddenly cold and hollow. And he went to her. At first timidly. Eyeing the mini that called to her, begged for her to rise. Before even lowering his bone hidden face to sniff at the motionless body he knew. The massive bull's body trembled, faint but noticeable to a keen, clever eye. He stood for a time. Lost.
He had not gone to her. He had done nothing. This was not like Blue Boy's death. Blue Boy's was illness. There was nothing that could have been done. This was different. This was his sin. A great crime he had committed. Because he had lost focus, he had wanted, he was selfish.
Dark brown eyes brushed over the green doe's body. Battered but strong. It was her strength, her survivor's instinct that first drew Gustiro to her. It was a year ago, he remembered. Since then he had grown close. Attached.
A mistake. Attachments meant wanting. Greed. He had made many attachments since living in this forest when he was meant only to serve. And once his animal instincts were over taken by more human understanding it only made it harder to revert back. To let go again.
His eyes drift to Emdeaur as the other deer wept tears for his ex-mate. And for the first time the bull wonder... does it bring relief? He had never cried before, never desired to. There were times where he could have if he was able. Still he had not the ability nor the desire. They always wept when someone close to them fell. It seemed to help. Didn't it? For the first time he wished he could. Then perhaps this growing burning-cold would leave his chest.
As more deer came to pay their respects and left... as fewer and fewer crowded around... Gustiro moved closer and sat by the green doe's back and carefully removed the skull that protected his face. He leaned close to whisper affectionately into her ear.
"Is sorry, Eva'... Is fail you. Yes? This stupid boy - no good..." He took in a deep breath and began again. He struggled with the words, with his memory as he spoke a prayer. It was important to speak them properly.
"In the dark-est... ho... hour may the light find you and...is... and carry you on the wings born spirit... of spirit and hope. May your an...ances...tors before you lead you... on is... on to the path that shall bo-re you anew. As you have bree..athed your last bre-ath for us; I bree-ath my last bre-ath of the day for you. In the name of Eva-ni-a."
For the first time he spoke her full name. Difficult but he made a point to. With that he lowered his head close to her's and closed his eyes. For now he will stay here. Silent for the rest of the day.
Eva....
Her head cranes towards the body; restful and at peace. I... I never got to know you.
A single, glinting tear falls from her eye. Anger and sorrow collided in her heart. Yet you still....
The doe nearly spat at the carcass, but restrained herself. Who do you think you are... leaving my brother alone like this..... Evania.
Fool...
(...I only wish I could have gotten to know her more... ,__,)
After a while, the stag lifted his head from his love's fur, which on contact was just barely warm now. He had said everything he needed to say. He had let her know everything she needed to hear. It was all finished, now. There would be tears and crying after this moment, that was certain. There would be lingering memories he thought about for days, weeks, years after this moment. There would be scents he would catch on the wind many hours after now, and he would remember. He would remember the doe that brought him love and fullness. He would remember the life they had together. He would remember that he loves her. He would always remember her.
Without anything else to say, he slowly raised to his hooves. He turned and admired the beautiful, broken doe laying in the dirt. Bending over, he nuzzled her fur for the last time he ever would, and inhaled her scent to be remembered forever.
;__; This is beautiful,
This is beautiful, guys.
And sad. But that also adds to the beauty.
The enigma had left the area
No words were uttered. His action alone had said enough.
Compassion and sympathy were both typically unheard of when it came to him,
but today they were present.
I understand you.
I'll help you.
And he did.
With a swift motion, he took the pain away.
The doe colapsed into the flowerbeds that had been beneath her this whole time.
Everything was silent.
Everything but the single crack of her neck,
and the screams of grief that came from her loved ones.
(It's not much of a post, but I had to leave something. I'm honored that both Black and I could be of assistance in this..<3 R.I.P. Eva.)
Wow, those images is
Rest in peace, Evania. :c
The sheer simplicity of this
Thank you all...
And to those of you in-forest with her body... Sorry about that little... dancing technical difficulty... Hotkeys are a bitch. >.<

So....sad. ;-; You don't
You don't know how much I'm going to miss her.
Lovely images, Whey. ♥
Lovely images. I hope no one

This is stunning. I'll miss

I'll miss her even though I didn't get to spend much time around her <3
