Dante was waiting, she was waiting for someone. She was always waiting but that was normal anymore. She sat on a tree stump and continued to wait. Becuase that was what she did. She didn't care who it was but she needed somthing that would snap her back to reality.

(ooc: If you were wating for someone in particular, please inform me and I shall delete my post)
A winged figure watched the girl quietly from the shadows. His sharp vision quickly identified the features of the girl he had met not so long ago in this exact same place. Her eyes seemed to stare distantly into space, as though watching the world through eyes that did not see it the same way others did.
"It is not as peaceful here as it should be. Here is not the best place to be seeking solitude." His soft voice carried on a slight breeze until it reached the girl's ears. Perhaps she remembered him, perhaps not. It didn't matter much, in the end. He began walking towards her. Though it was late autumn and the trees carpeted the ground with their fallen leaves, the fae’s light steps made no noise on the dead foliage. He halted behind her, stopping a few feet shy of the stump. “I do not believe I asked your name the last time we met.”

(OOC: No its ok your welcome here)
Dante picked up on a voice that seemed distant and familiar voice and smiled. She turned to face him knowing full well she wouldn't be able to see him. "Hello again my name is Dante." She smiled, a small sad smile. "I'm afraid this is the only place that I can find solitude, the only place I can really think but any more I can't even do that." She might have sounded sad she wasn't sure but she felt it like a knife through her heart everyday. "I'm afraid I did get your name either if you don't mind me asking what is it?"

After hearing his voice, the girl turned around, her hair swirling about her face. One look at her pale eyes and it became clear that this girl could not see. The faerie’s expression became mildly surprised, but it left his features so quickly one could question whether it had ever existed. Hello again. She had recognized him by the sound of his voice, though they had met only once. No small feat.“I am called Luka. It is an honor to make your acquaintance, Miss Dante.” He bowed, though the motion would go unnoticed by Dante’s absent vision.
“So, you have lost your sight.” It wasn’t a question. He moved again, his feet padding quietly on the ground so that he was beside her. The sadness radiating from her was easy for the faerie to sense. She had let him tell her his troubles once upon a time. Perhaps now he could return the favor. “A quiet place to reflect. We all need one, but now and again, solely a place to think is not enough. Am I correct?” he said quietly.

"Yes you are right, it seems that its impossible for me to find a place to think any more, so many people are always there and I feel obliged to help them, to make them feel better, then they just go away I never see them away." Dante sighed closing her blind eyes to the world she could not see. "I just need something, somthing to wake me up to bring me back though I'm not quiet sure from were yet."

Though I’m not sure from where, yet, she had said. One needed to identify a problem before one could solve it. One of the many things the dark-haired fae had learned during past years. “If one does not know where one is, one will be forever wandering lost,” Luka commented quietly. “You are lost, are you not?” He turned his violet gaze to the sky and watched the stars hide behind clouds. Humans used to be able to find their way by navigating with the help of the stars. Perhaps a metaphorical cloud was covering Dante’s sky. “I am not sure I understand your situation. Perhaps I am not the best one to consult for the matters troubling you, Miss Dante.”

"No one else is here monsieur, I've searched, I think in a way that perhaps I am trapped, by a beast that lives inside of me. And sometimes I can remember what exactly that beast is, I know hes made of things such as pain, regret, guilt and longing. But long I have thought that I had these things under control, but I know now that they eat me alive every day...do you understand?" She asked him. Needing an answer. "I'm lost and I need help finding my way back out of the void."It seemed so simple yet so complex at the same time like a riddle where the answer was right in front of you and you still couldn't reach it no matter how hard or how long you tried. "Perhaps I do need help finding my way, pride has long denied me the luxury of accepting help." She stated as though it was a common though in her mind.

The faerie’s wings moved slowly back and forth, shimmering as the moonlight reflected off them. Wafting gently, Luka pondered the girl’s words as she spoke. Pain, regret, guilt, longing. Yes, those were things that were all too familiar to him. They wore away at him, piece by piece. There was never a day that he did not think of these, despite the calm, composed face he concealed himself behind. The void of emotions and feelings that sucked one in so strongly that one could not easily escape. “I do believe I understand,” he stated, “though only you can decide that.” He glanced at her, watching. He took in her expression, her posture. Loneliness was seeping out of her like water out of a faulty pipe. “Pride is often an obstacle between you and a solution. Acceptance is the first step towards that solution. Soon, once you reach the end of your void, you will look back; and perhaps you will find the solution is much clearer than when the problem clouded your mind. Am I wrong?”

"I suppose, I think its the regret that feels me the most and I know that it is something I can't get rid of no matter how hard I try." A tear fell from Dante's blind eyes. She shamefully wiped it away. "I used to regret not being able to find my parents murderers and now I regret look for them when I've learned that my parents never really cared." She sighed her posture sinking into a ball almost.

A lone tear fell from the girl’s sightless eye and Luka watched as Dante quickly rubbed it away. The feeling of loneliness that emanated from her increased, blending with sadness and helplessness to create a bitter mixture of sorrow. The faerie watched her a little while longer, unsure of what to do. The emotions swirling around in the atmosphere was also subtly drawing out his own pain and regret.
Shifting his position so that he was beside her, he took a seat next to the old stump. Hesitantly, he reached out a hand and placed it upon her shoulder. A small gesture meant to comfort. “One cannot rid that feeling. One must learn to live with it.” It was hard to tell whether this statement was meant more for Dante--or himself.

Dante raised her head slightly as she felt the hand on her shoulder, an act of comfortof understanding. She heard his words and they washed over her soul telling her that he understood. "Do you ever feel the regret eating away inside of you?" She asked, her posture not really changeing. She still slunched over so diffrent from her normal state.

Luka felt the girl move, and wondered briefly if he had said something she had not wanted to hear. Some of those he had known refused to believe or outright rejected things they did not wish to know, and that ignorance had led to their downfall. Many of those, unfortunately, were of the human population. However, the fae had a feeling the girl was not feeling this at the moment and she stayed where she was. "Do you ever feel the regret eating away inside of you?" she asked quietly. It seemed like a plea, as if she hoped she would find one that would understand through the query. A small sad smile made its way onto the faerie’s features. “Every day,” he whispered. “Every day I used to try and wish this feeling away, no matter how useless it seemed.” A slight rustle told the blind girl he had shaken his head. “It does nothing for you. One must live with it until one finds a way to disperse it little by little, tiny piece by tiny piece. Only then will it disappear.”

"But I can't get rid of it I can only harbor it there is nothing there to take it away...your words make perfect sense but I still don't know how you were able to get rid of it, or did you ever get rid of it?" She turned her blind eyes to him, for a moment wishing to see him, and for a moment her memory took her back to when she first meant him and she could remember his face. And how sad it looked when she had first meant him.

A slightly amused look found itself on the faerie’s face. “Truly, if it were so easy, it would rid itself on its own,” he said mildly. “No, I doubt any one being can in one lifetime. However, I have found a way to chip away at it, lessening it day by day. Perhaps someday, I can live without this feeling. That brings me peace.” Moving, he turned to face her as she turned to face him, meeting her sightless gaze. His hand traveled up to her cheek where the earlier tear had left a trail. Using his thumb to wipe it away, he smiled at the girl. “Perhaps by helping others you may find a way to heal yourself, as I have.”

Dante's eyes closed as she felt a gentle hand wipe away the tear that had fallen so long ago, and in a way all that would fall. Helping others was what she was good at it was what she had always done. "Maybe your right." She said her voice barely audible, her eyes still closed.
