"Look at you. You and I... One in the same! Blood of my blood.
When you feel joy, I feel joy. That look on your face, that smile. As I grew older it was harder to feel this way, but you managed to bring it back.
The joy in life. Your laugh. Your smile. Your humanity. "

This piece has a specific themesong which I've attributed to it and I'd like to share with you all, the lyrics are quite important in order to be able to relate to the story snippet presented up above:
Continuing where we left off with my dearest friend @Raesheris's help, stemming from the same energy Precious piece gives off, but with a different time altogether.

- Rain
She was bored of life, the people said. Trying to converse with her, difficult beyond measure, as if talking to a rock. She was always busy with her little things, from the taste of blood on her lips, to the weight of armor and straps bound tight on the shoulders bearing the mantle, all the way down to the shape of a dew drop on her plants, the sounds that roots made when breaking through soil...
It was as if everything else but human beings mattered to her...
Until she had Rafe.
And then her smile was back. Not filled with sadism or disjointed pleasure derived from pain, but genuine pride and joy. There was a certain softness to it that everyone saw and felt. They knew there was still something left inside of her that was good...
Until it was no longer.
Sometimes, the Shamans would say, she poured all the good of herself into him. He was special somehow. Whilst his other siblings had caretakers appointed in order to tend and teach them, Rain was personally taking it upon herself to rear Rafe, to be around him as much as she could. Smiling, imparting her care and affectionate attention.
She was different with him. Motherly. She was alive and vivid. Her own little white wolf brought joy and youth to her age.
Until she was gone.

David Sylvian - For the Love of Life
And slowly you come to realize
It's all as it should be
You can only do so much
If you're game enough
You could place your trust in me
For the love of life
There's a trade off
We could loose it all
But we'll go down fighting
And what of the children?
Surely they can't be blamed for our mistakes
And slowly I've come to realize
It's all as it should be
That hiding space, a lonely place
How can the right thing be so wrong?
I've found mistakes where they don't belong
For the love of life
We'll defeat this
They may tear us down
But we'll go down fighting
Won't we?
Continuing where we left off with my dearest friend @Raesheris's help, stemming from the same energy Precious piece gives off, but with a different time altogether.
