Forrest's home world. ------ Evrana sat in the castle gardens, looking in one of the small springs that a small brook trickled into.

SHe smiled a bit at him. "Good morning, YOur High-Artemis." She'd recently started to catch herself on that and using his name instead of titles.

He looked up at the sky as well, stretching a little, his hand brushing hers accidentally.

"You are very beautiful, Evrana," he often complimented her like that, so it wasn't out of the ordinary.

Some noble ladies passed them, giggling and starting to gossip as they passed. Evrana flushed hotly, only guessing at what they would be saying.

A couple of weeks later, Artemis sighed as he rubbed his temple, resting in the infirmary of the castle. His powers were still on the fritz, and the healers had confined him to this room. Not that he could really blame them. He could barely breathe out of his nose, both of his knees had been shattered beyond all recognition, and there was a gaping hole in his chest.

Evrana sat in a chair next to his bed, reading a book. She'd been next to him the whole time as much as the healers had allowed her to be.
