I don't want to know who we are without each other
It's just too hard
I don't want to leave here without you
I don't want to lose part of me
Will I recover?
That broken piece, let it go and unleash all the feelings
Did we ever see it coming?
Will we ever let it go?
We are buried in broken dreams
We are knee-deep without a plea
I don't want to know what it's like to live without you
Don't want to know the other side of a world without you

He was captured. The news shattered her heart. She knew the risks, she was aware of the danger, everything they were doing and everything they were aiming for – all had a high, bloody price. She knew it. She made her choice despite it all, and so did he. She knew it.
And yet still, she was not ready for how broken it would leave her, once it became her reality. Once her ears heard the words she knew she has to be prepared to hear one day. Was she living in denial all this time? Did she hope for some magical miracle, did she hope it would never come to this? Could she ever really be ready for the love of her life to be killed one day?
In that weak moment, she wished she could take it all back. If only they got a second chance to do it all over again, she would beg him to leave it all behind, she would beg him to run away with her, find better life beyond the borders...
How selfish of her. He had given so much. His whole life, dedicated to help others. His whole life, sacrificed for the chance of a better future. And he never looked back. How could she ever dare to keep that away from the world? How could she be so selfish, to want all this goodness for herself despite knowing what joy it brought to others? No. He always fought till the very end.
It was only right that somebody returned the favor.
She tried her best.
And like him, she failed. But that's not what matters.
She tried her best.
They chained her and hit her. She knew the hole is going to be her grave. That's where she'll face her end.
And it couldn't be soon enough. With the world feeling so cold and empty, there was no point fighting for it anymore. Without him, it didn't matter.
But the world had different things in mind.
Their reunion was bittersweet.
She didn't expect to ever see him alive again. But in cruel irony, she managed to come just in time to see him before their demise. The hole, her grave, shared with the wolf who made her want to live like nobody else. Was the world laughing at her misery, or was this its last gesture of pity? The ones who took her love away, now made sure they'll die together.
"I wished so much to be with you once more, but not like this," he cried. "You're going to die here."
"I'll die with you. That's all that matters."

This was super spontaneous, both the picture and the story! I heard the song and felt very compelled to draw something for it, but for Kajirra and Tomoe it felt a little too depressing, so ye :)) Dyrunn is an old, old character and her story remains the same, although we did change some details to fit in the current lore. Also, this is the first time I'm showing her partner because I finally got myself to design him, yay! Don't worry, their story will have a happy ending!
