so carelessly, left her broken and grieving as she stood by a pretty pool of early spring violets. I’m not coming back.

With that one statement, he’d broken her to pieces.

Dreams floated in and out, and she with them. She saw herself standing in her summer garden, teaching Nell how to stir the air. She felt the joy of clasping hands, at last, with both of her sisters in a circle of unity and power.

She saw the soft colors and sweetness of Nell’s wedding, the bright promise of Ripley’s. She watched as they began yet another circle without her, as was meant to be.

And she was alone.

“Fate moves us, and then we choose.”

She stood on the cliffs now, with the one who was called Fire. Mia turned, looked into the face so like her own.

“I regret no choice I’ve made,” Mia said.

“Nor did I. Nor can I now.”

“To die for love is a poor choice.”

The one called Fire lifted her brows, and there was an innate arrogance in the gesture. In the night wind, her hair streamed like flames. “Yet it was mine. If I had chosen differently, daughter, perhaps you would not be here now. Would not be what you are. So I have no regrets. Will you say the same at the end of your time?”

“I cherish my gift and bring no harm. I live my life, and live it well.”

“As did I.” She spread her arms. “We hold this place, but the time grows short. See.” She gestured to where the fog boiled along the edge of the rocks. “It craves most what it cannot have, and what it cannot have will, in the end, defeat it.”

“What is there to do that I haven’t done?” Mia demanded. “What’s left for me?”

“Everything.” With that last word, she vanished.

And Mia was alone.

Lulu was alone. Sleeping deeply under her hodgepodge quilt, floating on dreams. Unaware of the dark mists gathering outside her house, rising up to slither around her windows. And through the cracks. She stirred, she shivered, when that cold mist slid over her, snuck under the covers to crawl over her skin. With a little sound of protest, she burrowed deeper under the quilt, but found no warmth.
