She sat at the edge of a cliff, her right leg hanging over the sea crashing into the rocks below. She rested her head unto her left leg, which was pressed against her chest. A look of despair came over her face, as she thought about her siblings. She sensed that some of them came back to earth, but could not locate them. She tried to cheer herself up by thinking they would find her.
She closed her eyes and let her spirit go free. Her senses were more susceptible to detect anything abnormal when she was in that state. She suddenly opened her eyes. Someone was near, but who?

Arianna stood on the beach, calmly watching the water glitter in the sunlight, when suddenly she felt a change and turned. Her sister was close, yet far, finally upon the earth. Her emerald eyes glowed slightly as she pinpointed her sister's location, then began a quick, yet trance-type walk towards Delphine. Arianna's long hair moved from her knees to flow behind her with the wind, emeralds glittering in her golden brown hair and crown of golden leaves. She wore what she had since she came to the earth, a green silk halter bikini top and short, tiny matching skirt. Her body was a pale perfection in that attire, yet a gorgeous golden glow seeped through her skin as the sun set over it.
Soon Arianna was near to her sister and she called out a, "Delphine! How are you?!" Stepping over a rock and to a cliff, she sat beside her sister of water and smiled, emerald eyes lighting with joy. "It has been too long, my sister."

"Arianna!" she called out with joy. She could not help but smile. "we are finally together once again. You are the first i have seen in many centuries." Her eyes glowed with happiness like never before. Her silky hair fell down to her front, as she slightly tilted her head, taking the opportunity to take a look at her beautiful sister. She pulled her right leg unto the rock, making herself a little more comfortable.

Arianna's smile broke into an open grin, emerald eyes dancing wickedly. "The first one, you say?" she asked, looking at her sister. They all had their own elemental beauty, nature incarnate in a graceful package of light and dark. Arianna's element, the earth, had brought her to golden emerald beauty as only the land could really hold, the simple entrancment that peaceful forests could bring.
Arianna looked out over the see, watching it glitter before them. "As yet I have only spoken with Ehnhylond. I have felt others here however, Haizea for certain." She sighed, hair flowing forth in a mass to give Arianna a beautiful pondering look as she leaned back on her elbows. She smiled suddenly, humor back in a flash. "Could you imagine if the mortals saw us like this? Two Goddesses lazing about by the sea to the front and the forest to the back, the clear sky above them, peace and nothing more."

Ehnhylond sat further up the cliff, his legs crossed as he looked on, watching his sisters, "Could you imagine if your brother saw you louging about and letting the season's go untended?" He called down to them in jest, beaming all the while. Ehnhylond stood, and walked down to them. When there was no ground below his feet, he simply walked upon the air, continuing to walk in an unbroken line.

Arianna jumped up at the sound of Ehnhylond's voice and turned in one smooth gesture. She saw he was coming forward to sit by them, and thus met him half way with a huge, take-the-wind-from-your-lungs hug. "Ehnhylond!" Arianna's voice was full of joy as she looked at her brother, but then slowly, she backed away, looking saddened. The setting sun played over Arianna, bringing out all the golden undertones in her hair and skin. "You didn't go to the beach with me. So you owe me a serious beach trip with a picnic and everything."
Lips fighting to smile again, Arianna's coutenance broke back into humor as she grabbed Ehnhylond's hand and playfully tugged him back to the cliff. When she was even with her sister once more, Arianna sat down on the ground in a graceful pile of glowing skin, and looked back at Ehnhylond. "About that ignoring the seasons thing, the seasons have survived without us there constantly before."

Delphine stood up, her blue eyes closely watching her brother. "Ehnhylond! I cannot believe it" She streatched her arms with joy. She nodded in agreement as Arianna spoke about the seasons. She took a few steps toward and away from the edge of the cliff. All she could think of doing was to look at both of her siblings, finding no way to express how she felt.

Ehnhylond smiled warmly. He was slowly getting used to close contact, after eons of having nothing and no one to speak to but the stars. He blinked as Arianna grabbed his hand and tugged him back to the cliff edge. "My dear sisters," He smiled wanly, "I have missed you," He looked at Delphine, "I had not thought you would be glad to see me sister." He said, remembering their last dispute, and the naval battle that resulted on the seas between Caraegna and Agoria. Foolish jealousy was the cause of the war, and they were the cause of all the suffering.

She smiled gently "well, for my part i have forgiven and forgotten. I hope that is the same for you." she said, knowing that it would always be hard for them to get along. After all, they had opposite powers, but she had promised herself to attempt having a proper relationship.

"Ah," Ehnhylond grimaced, "Forgiven, but never forgotten. Too much has happened for me to forget, between our people, and ourselves. I hope we can get along in futre, dear sister." He said sincerely.

She smiled understandingly. She smiled knowing his words were sincere. Her glowing eyes then wandered toward Arianna, seeking to know what she had been up to during the unraveling of their conversation.

Arianna felt her sister's eyes on her and shrugged. The wars had taken their toll, and Arianna had been upset, but the worst thing of all happened on account of none of the siblings, simply their power washing over the earth. So many forests had died and none of them knew what it was...none of them were truly attatched to something extinguishable. She had experienced mortal pain at the burning, slaughtering of the earth, and had nearly exhausted her own existance in the process of keeping it alive and whole.
"We all had everything to lose," Arianna said quietly, her normal happy-joy attitude fallen. "We all experienced it to a horrid degree. Never again do I wish to fight that way." She was drawing away from them, taking herself, her core to safety. It was beginning already. The pain returning even after the joy of their reuniting. She did not want to lose her earth, her world again. She stared out over the ocean, emerald eyes unfocused. It was not going to go well, she could feel it. How bad it would get....that was the question.
