While I would like to do business with Thalonius, to get the vineyard's label seen in the arena, it was under this guise that I managed to get closer to the man. I was certain he had something to do with the disappearence of Reck. Finally I did ask about him and the merchant started to toss information at me that I am not sure I was meant to hear and imagine Reck wouldn't like me to know. Still, I will talk to him when I see him. Agents and Priest Kings, that is what I keep hearing over and over again. I am going to find out, or try.
I find I miss his presence. Or maybe it is that hint of the old Bela that is missing and seems to breathe while talking to this man. When I close my eyes I can still feel lips against veils, the moisture left there and the wild beating of my heart at the boldness of it all. Still, I am too old for the romantic side of life but needs are a necessary evil and a powerful.. dangerous draw.
I have to be careful with this man. On the one hand he pulls from me a long missed woman, on the other hand, I must be careful with that because of what he pulls from me. It is all rather exciting, like walking the sharp edge of a finely honed blade.
I am so tired of the quiet in my life.
Lets.. make some noise.
