02/23- Lucian is a priority

Aeliana looked at Kael, her mind still a whirlwind of emotions. She had tried to push forward, tried to convince herself that things would work out with Lucian, but now, in the quiet of this moment, she couldn't shake the feeling that the storm was coming. She had always been strong—an elf princess with her duty, a leader among her people—but in matters of the heart, it seemed so much more difficult to navigate.

"I don't know," Aeliana said softly, her voice barely a whisper. "I thought that if I could just fix the mistakes, we could find a way. But I can't seem to get through to him. I've failed him so many times already. How can I keep going like this, Kael?" Her voice cracked as she spoke, the weight of the situation pressing down on her like a physical burden.
