Once she had gone to sleep he softly covered her and then slid from beneath her. He had not wanted to break their contact where she had rested against him. Though, If he was to finish the climb this evening it must begin now. Gently he lowered her head to the water skin he placed beneath her head. A small comfort he could give her in her often uncomfortable life as a pregnant mother. THE mother for his children.

As his hand slid from beneath her warm cheek he kissed her softly whispering to her..
Ride the waves of tranquil sleep my Love, you vessel of our child. In the morning I am certain we shall celebrate the New Kingdom for you, My Queen, Lady Hollie.

As I went to leave I woke the fisherman and asked him to keep watch. We hadn't seen anyone, but my dream had shown a small population who were native here. We seldom saw anything from the sea except the tasty crabs and urchins. Especially at night. The waters here were dark...murky black dark. Cold as well, as though it was fed with mountains snow or icy springs.
Watch over them friend. They are my life, as your own family is yours. I will release you from this contract with the sunrise I think. Then We shall both cherish our families in the manner they deserve. Tonight, while I'm away...I need you for mine. In our lifetimes you will find....we shall have a kingdom here. In that kingdom you will always find a safehaven for you and your family. As you have watched mine is i am away so shall we watch over yours.......under my Lady Hollie's wise rule.
He simply nodded and smiled patiently, he trusted my words, but was taught by the waves and lifes tides to not be so certain of dreams. But then, he had not had the dream that brought me and my wife here, nor had my Lady Hollie. I held that blessing turned burden myself. And I knew it would be realized before our child was born. A mighty young warrior by the tell of my wife who felt his movements within her every second of her life.

With the thought of our new land I rose and began to scale the cliffs, a task not easy but made slightly so by the blessing of an eastern facing in this cove and the light of a Full moon that the Goddess Nyx herself must have timed our travels to arrive under. By the Dark of the New Moon, my wife's palace would be begun. Dark and beautiful like her hair and eyes.
