RE: Talking about the past with Unna
Ashla half turned and looked out the window once more, "to say leaving behind my longsword was the Will of the Force would be a mistake. It was a mistake to leave it behind. But that was my own mistake. I should have been more aware of what was going on. I accept that now. However the Will of the Force is in the fact that I still haven't replaced it. A circumstance that seems to be playing a vital role right now."
Ashla turned back to Unna, "I know you can sense my sadness. I so badly want to be by your side tonight. And if I had my sword, I would be. But I don't. I am not as ready for the unknown as I should be. And this is clear to me. This is a clue to what path I should take right now. Auro will need help tonight. Help to face the fact that he is not welcome where you are going. Help in guidance on where the Force needs him to be." There was a sense of duty mixed in with sadness as she spoke.
Ashla rested her glass on a near by table and turned completely around. She laid her hands upon the railing of the window as she looked over the city. "There is so much going on," she said scanning the city. "We can not be everywhere. Lady Baku has seen it fit to divide us for whatever reason she has. Gadeon will keep you safe, and I will remain loyal by Auro's side. But you are wrong, I have no choice to make in this."
Ashla turned around and looked Unna in the eyes, "If you feel it is best that I remain by Auro's side tonight, then this is where I will be. I will follow your wisdom, regardless of my own wishes." Ashla smiled as she added, "I will trust in your insight, my friend."
