Hawkeye's tears were not perfect and didn't spangle, but were rather hot, and came in spasms that wracked his body. As he had done once for her in similar circumstances, Brin merely held him tight, rocking him slightly like a small child, and murmuring inanities into his hair. Finally, when the Oakenling was exhausted, the Candeliana Witch rolled up a blanket to cushion his head, covered him in another, and nestled against his back to sleep. "Your hair's damp," he complained mildly. "Shh, now."

The Oakenlings were speechless. Jess bowed her head, and when she raised it, two perfect tears spangled her cheeks. "Yes," she breathed, "that is more than sufficient. Whatever grace may be mine, I offer it to you in my blessings, Dannan." Jess/Chasina turned to Hawkeye. Reaching out a hand to almost touch his face, she said, "Love is eternal. And all bliss is one light. You will find me there. You will find me in the light, my love." And with that, the image of the ghost woman shimmered away.

Hawkeye started to speak, and was immediately quelled by the expressions of the two women. "In that case," concluded Jess, even more softly, "how can I leave him? I may not be able to defend him anymore, but I can watch over him and warn him of danger." "Oh, no, Jess..." the Oakenling began, yet Brin was already talking. "Chasina," she said, "my name is Dannan. And I will ensure that nothing dire happens to your husband which I can either prevent or remedy. This I vow. Will that suffice?"

"Then... we can't know that it's over... We won't ever know that it's truly over for good, will we, if it could happen again at any minute?" Jess queried quietly, yet with obvious concern in her voice. "We can be reasonably certain that it won't happen again in the foreseeable future," the Witch comforted the ghost woman, "but... in all honesty, after a century, maybe two, go by... it is possible that he could be mistaken for an Alu Sage and hunted again. I can't promise you it won't happen."

Jess was a good listener, with a quick mind, and only required clarification occasionally, yet still, it was late evening when the retelling began, and almost midnight when Brin completed the complicated tale, since it had been necessary for the corporeal members of the trio to stop and eat. "And that's it, then. My husband's eyes somehow appeared in some Dark Sister's random scrying, and that's what set all of this in motion?" "As far as we can discover, yes, that's correct," Brin confirmed.
