You Are Mine, Islinda

All it took was mere minutes for Islinda to make it out of bed, unable to stand being alone in the cottage anymore. The dream haunted her and she needed to calm Valerie too. She didn't mean to die, he needed to know the reason for her visit and perhaps understand her. Islinda did not like that they were fighting. 

"Valerie!" Islinda shouted his name the instant she made it outside, but the sound echoed across the forest with no response. 

It didn't deter her as Islinda made it further away from the cottage, searching for him and having a feeling he went away just to hide from her. 

"I know that you can hear me, Valerie! Please just come out, so we can talk!" Her voice reverberated across once more but there was no sign of him. 

Suddenly, Islinda felt genuine fear trickle through her at the thought that Valerie might have left for his realm. What if he was more angry than she thought at her actions and he left for good? 

By the gods, no!
