Mara returned home to find the Manor empty. She sighed sadly, having not seen much of her little sis lately. Michelle seemed to be settling into Rhy'Din well, at least she hoped so.

Mara took the stairs two by two, pausing to double check her sisters room, the door was open and the room empty. She shrugged, and headed further down the hall to her own room.

The scent and lingering magic of Zillah still clung to this place, and she fought back a sob. She had truly loved him, once.

She growled and shook off the melancholy; she had a new lover, and she loved Raven with all her heart. She had no room for Zillah, now. This thought brought more tears to her eyes, but she fought these off, as well. She missed Raven terribly, and really had no idea where she had gone.

Flopping back on her bed, she sang softly to herself, staring at the intricate embroidered and bejeweled canopy above her head. She had yet to dispose of Dalia's bedding. She loved the look of it, but knew she must if she were to fully exorcise this house of it's deamons.

She fell asleep, thinking of Raven. If she did not find her here soon, she would be forced to leave Rhy'Din in search of her love. This, too, saddened her. She had begun to enjoy this new world.
