Exton

Stoney and Alise head down the stairs as Keon steps from the shadows. He watches Cassie reach out to touch Mera gently.

"Our lass is a beauty, Cassie. Her mother's child."

"You gave her my name."

"Aye. Mera Cassandra Thorn..."

"You have picked the best of parents, Ke. Don't worry."

He reaches for her, hand barely brushing the mist of her form. She moves closer, leaning against him. Closing his eyes, Keon wraps his arms around ghostly form. "*Is breá linn tú, Mo Ghealach. Chailleann tú ar an méid sin."

"You won't hurt forever Keon. Don't give up on life. You will find your center again, and you will teach Mera to be who she is. I love you both. Remember... I will come when I can, as much as I can. Stoney and Alise see me, so does Ob and Jack. Star knows when I am near. She has talked to me as I watch her play with our girl. She loves that you and Erik are now brothers. You are not alone Ke. Remember that."

He nods, hands sliding over her nearly tangible form. "I won't forget. My heart is yours, in life and in death... My Moon in the Darkness of my life"

Mera stirs, her dark blue eyes fixing on Cassie. She blinks, then looks at Keon. Closing her eyes, Mera's breathing softens once more, drifting back to sleep.

"She sees you as well."

Cassie smiles. "All the little ones do, love."


*We love you, My Moon. We miss you so much.
