Aethelwyne was so engrossed with Taran that she did not hear the girl approach. Pulling Taran in front of her she turned her head and drew him into her lips. Running her hand through his hair she was able to quickly turn back into the guise of Mica with dark hair and blue eyes before the girl got a good look at her. Even though this was a way to protect her identity, she felt herself melting into his arms.

"You know I won't tell any one of your true identidy I was just passing through as you very well know and I was just wondering who you were. I saw you were you can take the diguise off. you can trust me." stated Nerasa.

Taran did not pull away from Aethelwyne when she drew him in. He felt himself give in, then noticed her change back into her altered form. He also noticed she still did not pull away when her features changed into her disguise, so neither did he. After a brief moment, however, he broke the kiss to stare into her now blue eyes, a smile on his face. He cleared his throat before addressing Nerasa.
"Uh, hey Nerasa. This is one of my few old friends," he did not know what to call her, but he knew not to use the name she had given him. He asked her briefly what to call her through his mind, 'Mica' she told him. "Uh..my friend Mica. Mica, this is Nerasa, Nerasa, Mica." Taran stood off to the side, unsure what would happen.

"Right. Like I should believe that. How could you just easily lie like that? I know thats not her real name but thats your choice if you want to protect an assassin. Don't think that I don't know one when I see one. I have a friend who is an assassin and she had been through a lot and taught me how to identify assassins. And she is one of them." said Nerasa nodding to 'his old friend.'

She reached out to Taran's mind. She knew he was worried that she would hurt the girl. 'It's okay. I swore to you and I do not take my promises lightly.' As she broke contact with him she looked deeply into his eyes. "Hello Nerasa. It is nice to meet you. Taran and I were just... uh...catching up on things." She felt herself unable to take her eyes off of him no matter how she tried. But she turned to eye the girl. "My friend I have no quarrel with you. I have not approached you to cause you harm. I merely walk and spend time with my friend here." She walked closer to Taran taking his hand in hers. "Nothing evil or sinister in the air on this beautiful night!"

"Its nice to meet you too. I am going back to camp Marflamel and I are going to scout in the air for a while I need...air although taran you know I don't want you more then just a friend I just want to be a friend and thats it. You can keep her for...more then just a friend. I can see you like her more then just a friend anyway don't deny it." said nerasa bitterly and she walked back and told Marflamel what happened and he took off in the air with Nerasa circleing.

Taran looked shockingly at Nerasa. He could tell that she had lied to him. She did care for him, it was plain to see now. Though Nerasa had left, Taran did not release his hold on Aethelwyne's hand. Taran watched as Nerasa took to the air, flying far and high.
"I'm sorry about that. I..uh...I don't know what to say," Taran chuckled softly, staring into her eyes.

"Nerasa it was very nice to meet you my friend. Perhaps in the morning we could have some breakfast and talk some more." she said to the girl as she flew off. She did not wish to cause her pain but she was unable to draw herself away from Taran. Still holding his hand she again waved her hand in front of her face changing back into her true face.

Nerasa liked him yes and she couldn't beleive that she had fallen for him though she had to lie in order to gain his trust though she didn't know what to do. He had lied to her and her lie was more shocking then his. How dare he think that she didn't know that he liked the other women. Nerasa was confused though she had to admit that she had to forget him in a way for it could never work out anywa.

Taran noticed that Aethelwyne had changed back into her true form, and it made him smile yet again. They walked for a moment in silence across the sand dunes, nothing but the moon and stars to light their way. Taran wondered what was going through Nerasa's mind. He had been attracted to her, though not in any way more than a friendship. Now he knew that she had lied to him in order for him to relax, to be more comfortable, at a cost for herself. 'Does she understand why I lied myself?' Taran wondered. 'I don't know why I did what I did. Nor how I find myself in the situation that I do now.' The thought plagued his mind as they walked. He chanced a look at Aethelwyne, then looked again up at the open sky, the bright moon.

Everything that Nerasa was feeling was true she had to admit it though she couldn't. She had to do what she had to do in order to make those around her more at a comfortable ease then anything else. Nerasa was taught patcience and she had to do that. All her truths where based on her feelings and she knew that if she had told him how she had truely felt he wouldn't have really wanted to talk to her in the least.
'marflamel I am concerned. I don't think I wanted to hurt taran but I also wanted to see if he would trust me. Do you think I did the right thing?' asked nerasa.
'Yes and no. For I see what you did for you wanted him to know but yet you didn't want him to know the truth just yet. It was your choice and I think you did it for him more then yourself.' said Marflamel.

Aethelwyne felt him look upon her and back up to the sky. She wondered what he was thinking. 'Why am I so at ease with him?' She asked herself but not really caring about the answer. As they walked she took in all the feelings in the desert night. She tilted her head to the side to gaze at him. "I am sorry if I caused pain to your friend. That was not my intent."

Taran looked again at her when she spoke, no trace of discomfort in his eyes.
"I am too, but I neither of us knew what would happen. I had not know how she felt, in fact I thought she didn't truly like me at all. But, that is in the past, let us focus on here and now," he said with another smile, nodding towards the moon. "That's what I like about a clear night. The moon shines so brightly, there is little difference between night and day."

He was right. The moon shown so brightly that there was no difference between day and night. Raising her face up to the light of the moon she allowed its light to wash over her. "Taran. close your eyes and lift your face to the moon. Slow your breathing and feel its light cast upon your face. Can you feel it? The energy which it releases? That is what you happened upon at the pool this evening. We draw energy from the moon to renew our spirit and fortify our soul. It feeds all living things and hurts none. Can you feel it?"
