Vaen paced back and forth in the Legion stronghold. He know how he felt. But did he want to do this? "It's the right thing to do," he thought to himself, "just tell her. She must know that your feelings for her have changed."

He nodded to himself. Walking over towards his armoire, he picked out his best shirt and leggings. Breathing in deep, he nodded to himself.

"Time to let her know..."

The sounds of merriment surrounded Brianha in the tavern. She sat back with a sigh of contentment enjoying the company of her guildmates and friends. As they were all talking she noticed Vaen had come though the doors and she instantly smiled and felt her heart leap in her chest. He came over to sit with the group and found there were no seats available and so went searching for one to bring to the table. They were all snickering at him as they watched him dart around in search for a seat. After giving up he decided to take a seat at another table and listen from there. Of course Brianha could not let him sit alone and she had been missing his company as of late, so she moved over to his table and noticed that there was something on his mind.

He instantly voiced that he needed to speak to her and so ,she not being a patient sort, they both agreed to go elsewhere to discuss the matter at hand. She was nervous as to what it could be about but tried to keep her thoughts in the positive.

They stood inside the palace of Nujel’m and he turned to her with an anxious expression. She started to feel the nerves take her over but tried to remain calm on the outside. He began by telling her how much he had grown to care for her and was interrupted by a stranger who had come to the palace looking for help. While he turned his attention to the man she began to think of the things that he might say next. She was certain he was going to next tell her that although he cared for her, his heart was just not ready to take the next step. Due to the things that have haunted him in regaurds to the women he had cared about in his past she was not surprised this conversation was about to happen. It was something she feared would happen all along… and although it would hurt she knew that if letting him go would make him happy then she would do it.

They decided to move to the gardens to avoid any further interruptions. Even with the thoughts she was having Brianha felt a peace among the flowers that she was unable to find anywhere else. Looking into his eyes and seeing them full of emotion she braced herself for what was to come. As he continued telling her of his love for her she began to think of ways to keep it together and found herself counting her heartbeats. Then he said something she was not expecting… he asked if she would be his wife. She was so overwhelmed she did not at first know what to do or say. Tears fell down her face and she was finally able to reply. She told him she wanted nothing more than to be his forever. This was indeed the happiest day she had ever had.
