She did feel shame then. Her cheeks went red and she could not look at either the bark of the Tree or Darin's body, as both seemed to be The Tree. She would not have it said of her that she was faithless, and that anyone had even a half of a cause to call her that made her burn. That wasn't her. She would do better. Darin's body--The Tree--came over and took her face in her hands. It was an extremely intimate gesture in Azurei, but then again, this was an extremely intimate moment between her and the spirit of all Astra. It was difficult for her to hear all these wonderful adjectives pointed at her; most people didn't say those kinds of things about her. Even Ajoran, though she knew he thought those things, didn't verbalize them too much because he knew it made her feel uncomfortable. He showed it instead. 

"I...think so. Don't worry, Sol. I will keep your Darin safe. To whatever end." She paused and took a few breaths before somewhat timidly asking, "Sol? Can I ask something of you? You have no obligation to your humble servant, Sol, but please, I ask a boon. I don't know if you can, but if possible...can you make sure Ajoran is okay? Can you tell him we will meet again someday? I miss him so much it hurts..."

That was true. She'd never admit it to anyone else but the Tree, but she ached to see him again. And if she couldn't, she wanted to know he was alright. If for some reason she never made it back home, if she died in the line of duty, perhaps, she hoped he would move on in time. Probably not. But she hoped all the same. She just wanted him to have a good life, a full life. Preferably with her, but baring that, she hoped he would be happy. Her vision while speaking with Ravi gave her some hope though. Hope that she hadn't seen in months.
