For the first time in years: Richard was able to see the light of day. He'd been trapped within the darkness, but was now basking in the warmth of the sun. The rain that had followed the soldiers for nearly their entire journey had finally given way to sunshine and blue skies.
As he stared up at the beautiful sky, an equally gorgeous woman stepped into his line of sight. Her beauty and golden hair were unreal, and the sad expression on her face made his heart hurt. As he reached up towards her, a blurry young man's face came into view..
"Oh, Maggie.. I'm so, so sorry for what I did.. How's Marie? How is my child?"
Skye and Tidas leaned back a bit and whispered amongst themselves for a minute. Tidas wondered if it was some sort of trick, but Skye didn't think that was the case..
"I dinna think he knows where he is, or what really happened."
