Tiy's Grandfather rushed down the back alley and through the dark to a small corner store about a good half hour walk away. He slipped in and muttered a word to the doorman. His eyes grew in terror as he led her grandfather to a room with five or six men gathered around a table. He settled down on the empty chair and looked at the others.
He began speaking in other tongues and the men nodded and looked at one another, their faces unrecognizable by the hoods drawn over their faces and the dim light that lit the room. They all looked at him and one of the men spoke up, in a strong accent. "For a price."
"Name it." Grandfather replied. They talked quietly to each other and then looked at him again. They uttered the price and Grandfather stood, appalled. "After everything I did for you, after everything good I had was lost, you still expect me to pay such a price?"
The men stood, about to argue, but a thin frame under a gray cloak raised their hand, and a woman spoke. "Weather my men agree or not, this is yours for now. The next time the vial runs empty, do not expect such a low price. Now leave, Legend."
Grandfather took the vial from the center of the table, bowed, and then left. Hurrying across the roads and avoiding any eyes, he made it to the back door of his shop as the sun just began to peak over the mountains. He rushed inside and found Zeion with Tiy in the bedroom. He pulled back his hood and then slowly went to the bed. Kneeling beside her, Grandfather popped the top from the vial and put a single drop upon her lips. He put the cork back in the vial and stepped away, sitting in the chair against the wall. He closed his eyes, but still acknowledged that Zeion was there. "She has a problem... inside..." he took a breath and sighed before he began.
"When she was little, she was cursed. Only her study of magic and potions could save her from the curse. The only thing is, despite her work for all her life, she has not been able to find a potion that she hasn't made. But there must be one, otherwise, she would not be doing this every so often," he sighed, "I know it's hard to understand... but if I were not the man I am, she would die. But I am asking you..." he opened his eyes, "To never become who I am, no matter what my legends and stories do say. You have to be here to support Tiy... For I cannot be here forever."
Tiy coughed lightly, but she was still asleep. Her breathing started again and then her face turned towards Zeion as tears raced down her cheeks. "She's said she has terrible visions and dreams when she is healing... You should sleep beside her to try and comfort her." He stood. "As for me... I will sleep in the spare room. You call if anything out of the ordinary happens, all right lad?" He clapped a hand Zeion's shoulder lightly. "You're good for her... I can feel it." With that, he left them. Tiy's tears kept coming yet she did not move. She coughed again lightly and then fell silent... breathing lightly.

Zeion heard the gradfather leave and then he came back Zeion hadn't moved. After the gradfather went to bed Zeion thought he should do the same yet he did not. Zeion was too worried about Tiy to care about his heath now. Tiy was good for him and vice cersa. Zeion just sat there and removing his hand from her stomache and grabbed her hand and placed a kiss on her cheek."I'll stay up and watch you my love."
Zeion then decided to lya in the bed holding Tiy's hand he flet like he should at least be her safe gaurd. His heart belonged to Tiy. Zeion of course couldn't allow any harm to come to her. If anythgin did happen to her then Zeion would without a doubt suffer and then become like her grandfather."Please be alright my love. I'll be here for you." He wiped some tears away from time to time.

After hours of the day had past and it was now almost dinner yet again, Tiy's crying had stopped mid-morning and she was know nestled as close to Zeion as she could be. Her grandfather stopped and looked in on them and then smiled lightly, whispering. "She should be up here pretty soon..." He left. And just as he said, a few minutes later she awoke with a start and literally jumped into Zeion's arms and clung to him, breathing heavily. Her nails dug into his skin lightly and she just held onto him.
"Oh dearest Zeion!" was all she said before she fell into silent tears and not letting go. Her eyes had gone dim and pupil completely dilated over her iris. She could feel that she was close to healing, but it would mean having a very hard situation occur. Her skin was dove white and her body felt light. She sat back to look at Zeion, and gave him a weak smile. She coughed lightly and then whispered, "Hi..."

When Toy awakened he held her when she got close to him. She looked so sick and tired. Zeion held her and whispered back."Hey." Zeion placed on hand behind her head and the other on her back."Oh Tiy you had me so worried last night. I refused to leave your side. I wanted to make sure you were safe my love. I didn't eat, drink, or eat. I'll do anythgng for you Tiy."
Zeion was repeating the words of last night. Zeion just held her he was not letting go..he would never let go he wanted to be with her forever. He just laid there with her in his arms he wanted to know more of why she was crying but the curse had to be removed if she was to be fully happy with him he was going to find a way.

Tiy shushed him as he carried on and then smiled lightly at him. "It's all right now... let's just rest..." her eyes could barely stay open and she tucked her head in against his neck and kissed him lightly. "I just need rest... peaceful rest... we'll talk in the morning. But please.. just rest..." she began to nod her head and then she finally dozed off again.

Zeion maoved both his hands so they were on her back his eyes slowly began to close."Rest peacefully my love"was all he said. He never moved his hands but he fell asleep as well.

Tiy awoke to find Zeion in the same place as the day before. She scooted closer and then kissed his forehead lightly. She muttered a silencing charm and she slipped out of bed and out of the room, making sure she didn't wake him. She grabbed a towel and headed to the wash room where she drew a hot bath. Her grandfather had left a note on the door saying that he would be gone for the day and would see them late tonight, and Tiy shrugged off her robes and slipped into the tub. She relaxed into the tub, but had neglected to shut the door. She closed her eyes and let the hot water and the lavender relax her.

It took a bit but Zeion woek up. He was still in a daze. Zeion couldn't wake up without a pain in his hand. Zeion got up and looked around Tiy wasn't anywhere in the bedroom. Zeion wondered if she was in the kitchen. As Zeion walked to the kitchen he smelt lavender. Zeion realized soon that Tiy was in the bath. He didn't want to look but he had to be nice enough to shut the door. So she wouldn't get sick Zeion tried not to make a sound so Tiy could relax. While behind the wall he was tring to get the doorknob.

Tiy heard him as his hand was out-stretched reaching for the door handle. She smiled lightly and then muttered a spell to make the water a creamy white color and nothing could be seen through it. She laughed lightly, "So modest, Zeion. Come in and talk with me... The water is charmed." She waved her hand at a chair and it scooted towards the side of the tub and stopped next to it. She looked over at him and hoped that he would come talk with her.

Zeion at first couldn't believe his ears she wanted him to come in...Zeion came in but slowly. He saw the water how cloudy it was he then sat down like he normally would."I can't help being modest. After all the dream I had last night seemed almost too real." Zeion would soon talk about the dream but he waited to see what Tiy would say. Zeion placed his hand on the side of the tub. He had his hand palm up he was hoping to hold her hand to know she felt better.

Zeion came in, however sheepishly. She smiled at him and then he sat down beside her normally. She guessed he was trying hard to relax and not be awkward for her. She smiled again as he rested his hand palm up on the side of the tub and she pulled out a warm and wet hand from the tub and took his hand, pulling it to her lips and kissing his hand reassuringly. He said something about a dream and she tilted her head to the side lightly. "What was it, Zeion?" She asked him curiously. She wanted to know what it was he saw and if it was anything like hers, what ever she remembered of it.
She tilted her head back and let it rest on the rim of the tub gently, but kept her face turned towards him, staring and wondering what he was going to say.

Zeion smiled she seemed a lot better. Zeion began it."Well it take place I don't know when but I see a woman in a forest green down. Her hair around her flowing like the light on water. I saw myself in a silver colored clothes. Tiy I saw what I think was our wedding day. I guess the green represents earth I represented the moon. You a woman who loves the see the moon, and I a man who loves the earth"
Zeion said he was on his knees next to the tub."Tiy I want to marry you one day. I'll wait as long as you want my love, days weeks months years an eterity. I know that for a fact. I sence the fate that was ment to be us." Zeion said he felt it the night they met the moons light seemed to show stronger on that night. Zeion wondered what Tiy would have thought about that.

Tiy listened to him and smiled lightly as the envisioned her green gown. She gasped lightly as he got down on his knees, holding her hands, beside the tub and told her that he wants to marry her one day. She felt her heart flutter and she smiled brightly at him. She laughed loudly and then pulled him into the tub and hugged him. "Yes! Oh yes! I will marry you!"

At first Zeion shocked when he got pulled into the tub with Tiy. Zeion didn't want to hug her after all she was naked. He placed his hands on her back and kissed her. He knew this was what he wanted to do spend his life trying to make sure the woman he loves is truly happy. His kissed lasted a bit but he knew that was good he parted and smiled."Tiy I love you. Whenever you want to get married just tell me. I won't argue it could be tomarrow and I'd still agree. Your happiness is my only wish Tiy." Zeion said and touched her bare back."oh...I forgot you were bathing...heh...sorry love I'll get out now." Zeion said and he started getting out.

Tiy smiled as he explained what he would do and she couldn't help but laugh lightly in joy. She kissed him lightly and then he started getting out, but she grabbed him around the waist and kept him close. "Don't go..." she kissed his neck lightly and brushed his hair off his neck. "Please..."
