I have been tired so long, so many to care for and so little time. The trees sang to me, a message from Gracie, a call to meet her. Phaen and Ian had tracked Dai to Tokuno and Gracie went to find her. Bound to my Dryad I sent out a call to find her and she summoned me to her side. Dai lay in the maze garden in Tokuno, unconsious, battered and bruised but still alive. I have no strenght in my limbs anylonger and asked Gracie to carry Dai back to the Rose. I wove the ether into a gate back to the freehold where we met William and he helped us check Dai over. In her hand she clutched a red Kitsune mask that we kept with her. None of our magics worked to wake her so Gracie suggested we take Dai back to Ai that the two of them may heal eachother. William carried Dai and I wove a new gate to Ai. We laid Dai in her bed and after a time Gracie and I felt the change, Ai sang a new song, sweeter now that Dai was home. Caelum and Bruce came to check on her, Caelum ever vigilant took charge to stand watch. Gracie retired to Ai's upper cannopy and I to my laboratory.
My time has finally come, tonights new moon will see me let go of the foolish chances I have taken in spring, I can renew and awake in summer and begin again. All my family is home, the fae of this freehold for this night are all safe, we shall see what tomorrow brings.
