"Ready?" Caelis asked with his small stringed instrument in his hands, which looked like a harp, and a small drum near him as well. "Uh huh." Faith replied as straightened her back, readying herself. Caelis said "Ready when you are." Faith took a slow, deep breath and then finally opened her mouth. She began to [url=http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hs3Fq8CZv1w]sing[/url]. As Faith began to sing, Caelis found himself nostalgically thinking back. Caelis had taught Faith that song a few years ago, and although she did not understand what she was singing, but Caelis knew. After all, this was a traditional song of Attolia that often served as a dirge and prayer during funerals. It was created as a tribute to honor Lady Mary, wife of the first Attolian King Alexandr, during the Unification War, the war that established the Kingdom of Attolia . According to texts, she was a master of what is called "Holy" magic today, and had considerable skill in creating light. Thus, during the Night of Reaping, a battle where the Necromancer Magnar had formed a pact with a demon released a dark fog that sucked life out of anything it touched in a manner of seconds, Lady Mary had walked straight into the fog while radiating brighter than the sun. As the fog consumed her, the fog began to dissipate, and several minutes later it had vanished with Lady Mary. Thus, as a martyr, Lady Mary had a song created by the first Royal Musician of Attolia. Despite not knowing the history or anything about the song, Faith had come to love this song. This seemed strange to Caelis at first, but after hearing her preform it... there was no one else in the world that could give the song justice. After all, this song was supposed to give hope and battle fear much like how light repels the encroaching darkness, and whenever Caelis hears Faith sing this song... his heart becomes lighter. [center][i]Here I shall prove your name. Look, that is the light that will become life. Oh, music of Paul that weaves time, eternally tell the story. Little ones that shine down in the darkness again, follow him, and me as well Extol the light of life with prayers until the day to come, Let it be with you Let it be with you.[/i][/center] --- Caelis woke with a jump as he heard Rudolf yell. He instinctively already had his hand on his sword as he quickly rose up from the makeshift bed that he created the night before. He left his eyes closed and listened for the sound of trouble. It took several seconds of listening before Caelis came to realize that it was a false alarm. His hand left his sword and he took a deep breath to calm his nerves. He hated being woken up suddenly and felt a bit irritated, not the best way to start the day. Caelis then walked over to Faith who slept next to him in her own makeshift bed made up of blankets. However, he met a familiar sight. There was a large bulge in the blanket, but no sight of Faith. It appeared that she had thrown her blanket over herself to shelter her from the noise that temporarily woke her up. Caelis lifted the blanket. Faith immediately covered her eyes with her hand and resumed to remain still. Caelis said to her "You know its rude to keep the others waiting." Faith groaned as she slowly rose from her slumber. With her eyes still groggy with sleepiness, she could barely see, and so she began to rub her eyes. When she finished she looked up and saw the morning sun slowly rising behind Caelis and envelope him in light. For a second, she just stared, and then she smiled while speaking like a chime "Good morning."
