Notes

[5:01]Cirina Malqir: "But you cannot keep doing these things. Do you think she'll love you when you destroyed that collar? That was likely something she held as dearly as Candice did."
[5:02]Cirina Nightwalker began to remove her glove on her other hand differnt then earlier; this time she bore a ring with a sapphire. "then by Shivas grace and the power of Ice I will freeze my heart so it will know no pain. I will know nothing of this love speak. and In the end. Everyone will be better off.." she let her words trail off.
[5:04]Cirina Malqir took one more step backwards, folding her arms over her chest. "Look me in the eyes when you say that."
[5:05]Cirina Nightwalker placing her hand over her chest the ring began to glow a brilliant blue. She spoke clear to Cirina. "I am going to freeze my own heart." though her eyes weren't quite locked with CirinA's
[5:05]Cirina Malqir: "The girl who refuses to be pushed around... is letting her own emotions get the better of her."
[5:08]Cirina Malqir: "You know who is truly better off with this senseless death? The Garleans. If you are going to kill yourself, die in battle with honor. Or here... with as little dignity as you've ever had. You came a long way to free yourself from the bondage of slavery, and it ends because of a single broken heart? No. I am not going to stop you. I know you are better than that. The only question I have is... do you?"
[5:11]Cirina Nightwalker she let her hand drop. it dangled at her side; a step. She fell forward collapsing onto the womans waist she began to weep; her shell had been cracked she was trying to be strong and independent but the truth was; she was completely depented on the Malqir woman. She always did come to her rescue. she looked up with amber hues; their color flickering. "Why does someone promise something then turn their backs on that promise.." She knew the answer but she still asked "Why did she lie...?"
[5:13]Cirina Malqir welcomed Cirina with both of her arms, catching the woman and shooshing her with a gentle hum and a soft stroke of her hair. "Because sometimes the Mother wishes to test us... it is through hardship that we earn our scales, and grow strong. No true wisdom was earned without pain."
[5:15]Cirina Nightwalker buried her face in the womans stomach. "....May I stay in your Yurt for a few moons.. I wish not to be alone.." she was talk sobbing. or was it sob talking?
[5:17]Velka Fortuna from the other side of the wall there moved shadow - as if alive a silhouette of black stepped from a corner. Soon it formed normal again revealing itself to be Velka. She had heard enough - and a light bit that...raised concern in her. Looking aside,her body flickered with a glare and seemed to become shadow again, scattering apart, not even a sound of a door as she exited. . . which logically was horrific.
[5:17]Cirina Malqir: "Stay as long as you'd like... as long as you take a lesson away from today, please, and show more respect to people. You would not like it if something I made you was destroyed. Why would you do the same to someone else?"
[5:19]Cirina Nightwalker gave a bit of a puffy face to Cirina.. "If someone destroyed something from Chief. One would break all their limbs that would lead into a slow amputation of their left leg and right arm. that would later be cooked and served to them as dinner.."
[5:20]Cirina Malqir: "...Don't do that."
[5:21]Cirina Malqir: "And people won't do it to you."
[5:22]Cirina Malqir: "You cannot go around demanding and forcing respect through violence. That is not how true respect is earned. I used it to get your attention, not to force you to obey what I tell you."
[5:22]Cirina Malqir: "...Can I trust you with a story?"
[5:23]Cirina Nightwalker grumbled and nuzzled into Cirina "One knows.. it was kinda hot.. actually.." She let out a yawn. Nodding slowly "May we retire first?"
[5:25]Cirina Malqir: "...Also do not tell that story even at an Eorzean party. They frown on the people eating thing. I mean most other tribes do, too."
[5:25]Cirina Nightwalker moved to sit on her bed since the moogle couch was currently split in two.
[5:28]Cirina Malqir: "I mentioned that... I know of your pain, yes?"
[5:30]Cirina Nightwalker nodded.
[5:32]Cirina Malqir: "You are... one of a handful of souls that will hear this so please... do not tell anyone."
[5:32]Cirina Malqir: "My mother... disappeared when I was too young to remember how she looked. When this happened... my father became... fixated with me. He controlled everything I did so I never came to harm, and at night he used me to warm more than just his bed. He called me her name. I wasn't even treated like myself... I was just a way for him to see her again. When I got older... and I started seeing what was wrong with that and rebelled... demanded my freedom, he did... terrible things to me."
[5:34]Cirina Nightwalker had become tense.. her hand had moved to take Cirinas the hand she was gripping rather.. tightly.
[5:34]Cirina Malqir: "Poisoned me with a drink that made me forget things... clouded my mind and made everything hazy. There... were other men. I remember their scents. Disgusting. He let them... do whatever they wished. Payment for helping with his plot. I was completely helpless... it was only from a few hints I was able to give while my father forced me to sing to him, and my friends and fellow Malqir, that obtained my freedom."
[5:36]Cirina Nightwalker: "....." she leaned on Cirina; A wave of empathy and yearning to comfort.
[5:36]Cirina Malqir: "...That was the point where I grew up, I guess... after the shock wore off, and my mind started to come back. I... use the experience as a source of wisdom. As I do the many other tragedies in my life. Every wisdom I have comes from one."
[5:37]Cirina Malqir: "...You don't want to be in the position I was, and have the only friend who comes to help being me. Respect is important. Vengance... is blinding, and useless. Be better than the source of your pain, not try to beat them at their own game."
[5:39]Cirina Nightwalker laid her head on the others lap. "But after tonight; One surely won't be welcome here anymore." she took Cirinas hand in her own and held it close to her. "I wish to disclose something to you.."
[5:40]Cirina Malqir: "I will try my hardest to make sure that does not happen. You made mistakes... but, and I emphasized this earlier... what is important is that you do not continue making mistakes."
[5:40]Cirina Malqir: "Take each as a lesson, learn, and better yourself. Can you do that, for me?"
[5:41]Cirina Nightwalker nodded
[5:42]Cirina Malqir: "I would give the three of them some distance. Candice, Paufu and Ivarault."
[5:42]Cirina Malqir: "Now... you were saying?"
[5:43]Cirina Nightwalker looked at Cirina with her amber hues.. "The thing I wish to disclose is.. I could have killed Candice earlier; On the outside I may seem weak and timid. But before I was ensnarred into slavery. I was one of the few warriors of the Borlaaq tribe. I was trained in various forms of combat... Now that Im no longer home; I don't know what to do with my training.."
[5:44]Cirina Malqir: "Talk to Momiiche about joining the Thorns. They handle security. Your skills will be useful... and you are aware that she could do the same just as easily. Just as you do not wish to be under-estimated, she has her own tricks, too."
[5:46]Cirina Nightwalker nodded a thank you. "But one last thing..." she leaned up taking the womans cheek in her hand. She kissed her sof like. "By my own blood; I swear onto you. That I will never leave your side and if the day ever arises I will be your guardian in the night."
[5:48]Cirina Malqir smiled. "Just listen, respect people, and be a friend. One thing I did not say to you is... what happened to my father. And the lesson I learned from it."
[5:49]Cirina Malqir: "He was caught and executed by the Malqir. A traitor and an abuser. The exact verdict and lesson from the Elder was that if someone cannot respect something... it is taken away. They kept me away from him because he did not respect me. They killed him because he showed no respect for the life he was given. If you had continued the path you've been going down today... you'd be on the path to make the same mistakes he did."
[5:50]Cirina Nightwalker nodded again she returned to laying in the womans lap. Drinking in her lesson.
[5:52]Cirina Nightwalker let out a soft yawn she curled up on the other Xaela.
[5:52]Cirina Malqir: "Mh... goodnight. Enjoy your rest."
[5:53]Cirina Nightwalker pulled Cirina into the bed with her; wrapped around like a child to a stuffed toy. "Goodnight.. Queen.." and with that she zonk'd out right into snoresville.
[5:55]Cirina Malqir: "Hmpf... goodnight. And please try to learn from this."
[5:55]Cirina Malqir didn't mind the cuddling, but would eventually wiggle her way out for the rest of her evening.
