"I did...but then my ambition kept me going, keeping that emptiness at the back of my heart, eroding it day by day. Until slowly...I no longer had one" Gin said. "But the sad part is...I never really realized when I had lost it..."

"When your mind is set and there is never a reason to look away, it's easy to not realize things like that." Arela stated. "Yet only when you find what you've lost...or when you realize that it's not there....then that is when you truly suffer."

"Wise words" he said with a weak chuckle.

"It comes from the knowledge of experience. Having nothing is difficult...though I think it is truly more difficult to grasp because I realize what I do not have..."

"And what exactly don't you have?" he said, lifting up as he let her slide down on her arm, looking into her eyes.

"I lack knowledge of myself. I have only what I've read...and what dares to creep forward from my mind. That is all." She said, averting his eyes.

"We all lack knowledge of ourselves..." he said, turning her head to look at him," what's important is that we have someone to teach us" he smiled.

She looked at him, uncertainty hidden behind her eyes. "I believe you and yet I know it isn't as simple as all that." She smiled faintly. "Though...I will try. I can assure you of that."

"No one said life was simple" Gin smiled as he brushed her cheek with the back oh his fingers.

Slowly she closed her eyes as his fingers caressed her cheek. She nodded slowly in agreement.

Gin lied down on his side, his arm still under her, smiling softly as he stroked her hair. Slowly, he closed his eyes, still smiling as he gradually started to fall asleep.

Arela opened her eyes a bit, watching as he lay there falling asleep. She readjusted, actually pulling closer, her eyes widened a bit, wondering if she disturbed him, but when he didn't react, she let out a breath of relief. Slowly as she gazed at him, her eyes began to slide shut as well, slowly drifting back to sleep.

Feeling her warmth next to him, Gin put his other arm around her and pulled her closer, resting his head on her shoulder. His sleep then became peaceful again, breathing slowly as he lay next to her.

Having been falling asleep her eyes shot open as he pulled her close. Feeling his whole body become completely relaxed as he laid his head on her shoulder though, made her feel a slight warmth. Smiling lightly, she rested her head against him as well, closing her eyes and letting sleep take her.

Gin woke up to the sun's rays beaming over the cliffs. It was starting to dawn as he blinked at the sun, squinting his eyes. Next to him Arela was still sleeping soundly. He smiled. Sliding his arm under her legs he picked her up, careful not to wake her. He looked at the lake, now shimmering in the sunlight as he opened a garganta and stepped in, disappearing from sight.
