Something I Must Do

Dec 31, 2009 08:16

I have spoken with Lord Edward, and he has allowed me to meet with Raphael. A part of me wants to run, to block this out, but now that Gaspard is free of the pain he felt from Father's misery I know I must do this.



Stepping through the ether I am standing at his bedside. Instantly I am hit with an immense sorrow. Raphael is curled up on his bed, his eyes full of pain. I know I am the cause of it all. My first instinct is to hold him, make promises I know I will not be able to keep. Anything though to make him smile.

His eyes open wide at the sight of me and I take a step back for  reasons I do not understand.

"Raphael, I - I am so sorry. I have caused you so much sorrow..."
