'''Title: A Moment in Time''' '''Author: Draken-Korin''' ------------------------------------ A male and a female, both mounted upon mighty steeds, wove their way down a path. It was a quiet ride, not a word was spoken between the companions. Even the forest itself was silent. As they approached a crossroads, their mounts instinctively came to a halt. The male and female shared a glance, knowing sadly what the Wheel had already woven. The male dismounted, and before he could offer his hand to the female her feet had gracefully touched the ground. The male grinned slightly, thinking to himself, she had learned much over the years. He brushed her blonde hair away from her eyes, as he had done countless times before, for over 300 years now. Asking himself, had it really been that long? He himself was born into Sosaria almost 600 years now, and it felt not more than a moment. Both the male and female's gaze did not leave one another's, but this time it would not be followed by a kiss, as it had so many times before. There would be no more meaningful moments set aside for one another. No longer would they ride into battle side by side. No longer would Tabitha and Draken's name be heard endlessly together, as if it were church bells ringing loudly in the distance all across the Shard of Atlantic. Tabitha and Draken held each other tightly. The one power, within each of them, surging. Their embrace lasted only a moment, or was it longer? They each mounted their horses, and without another glance took different paths. Draken could not let it end that way, he never was the type that could let it be a simple matter when it came to Tabitha. He glanced over his shoulder watching her back as she rode away. He wove the One Power, and casted upon her. As he blessed her, tears began to fill his eyes. Tabitha turned slowly, as her horse kept its pace, her eyes full of emotions. Their gaze locked upon each other's, not wavering, until they lost sight of one another. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of The Wheel of Time. But, it was a beginning. - Dedicated to Tabitha Feb, 2005 [[Category:Tales and Legends]]
