My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made...

Elaini's eyes filled with tears anew as she felt his arms tighten around her. Oh, how she'd longed for this moment! She'd seen it in her dreams at times, sometimes like this, sometimes angry. Right now, she'd bet anything she was just dreaming... excpet that it felt so real...

Shelooked down as he held her away, tears streaming in her eyes. She knew what he was wondering; she was obviously pregnant. But, how would that make sense to him...?

She choked on a sob when he walked over and picked up her--their-- baby girl. She'd also dreamt of the day her children would see their dad again. In fact, she had something very important to tell him--

I try to keep warm but I just grow colder...

Wylan started to whimper, and then gave a small cry, looking up at his father. He'd inherited many of Elaini's traits--steely grey eyes, dark hair--but was also unmistakeably W'ntyr's, even though he was more closely related to his mother appearance-wise. As he stared up at W'ntyr, he opened his mouth, as if to speak some little baby-dribble--

"Daddy!"

Elaini stepped up in front of W'ntyr, picked up Wylan, and made a gesture as if to odffer his son to him.

"He learned that about a month ago." she said softly, apologetically. "It was his first word."

She decided not to even mention being pregnant until he brought it up. She didn't want to ruin the reunion, or have him hate her... and she wanted a father for the new baby so much...

I feel like I'm slipping away...
