The Dreamer
Isolde sucked in a breath sharply when the trees of ice parted before her and the Garden came into view, still and cold in all its splendor. Her gaze flickered from statue to statue as the Guardian spoke, searching for the owner of the voice. So focused was she in listening to the Guardian's words, that she didn't sense Keenan approaching behind her. At the sound of her name on his lips, her heart skipped a beat and she whipped around to look at him, surprised to see him. Her eyes were wide for a moment before her gaze lowered to the ground, unable to maintain eye contact as surprise gave away to realization and, once again, shame. "Yes... maybe..." she said softly, hating how her voice shook ever so slightly. Taking a deep breathe, she continued, attempting to sound more confident, "I'll try."
As he walked away to talk to Kadri and Destrian, Isolde's eyes lifted to him, trailing him across the snow. It was like there was a tether connecting him to her; leaving her helplessly turning and looking wherever he went.
After a second, she tore her gaze away to turn her attention back to the Garden. The glistening trees of ice seemed to part even more for her, as if urging her to come in. Slowly she let out a breathe, taking a step forward towards the Garden. With that slight movement, the ice and snow seemed to shiver as if in anticipation.
"Guardians... if I may call you by such a name," she said slowly, voice soft yet for some reason, she knew that they could hear her, "I do have... questions, but...can I ask you... anything?"
The guardians voice echoed softly in the cold, frosty air, "Of course, blood of our blood. We will answer any question you ask of us to the best of our ability."
