*Vau coils with a snarl at her sudden tension but then as she calms he slowly untenses. *

*snarl* I brought food for you and kaalgrisch Alina. Not know how long she will be.

*Vau seems to scent something from her. He reluctantly relaxes his embrace*

Want I go look for her?

She may have gotten distracted. She just said "soon" to me in her note, not really specifying a time or day... *grins* or week. I'd say she can look after herself but she's a priestess and a bandage magnet...

*Crystal hasn't moved and she seems to be thinking as after a few moments she sighs*

Probably should make sure she's alright. *mutters* Old people.

*Vau also makes no sign of actual movement, seemingly transfixed by patterns in the clouds or the waving branches of the Eldenshay Forest above them. His growls are barely more than purring as he relaxes next to Crystal.*

*Crystal shrugs*

I don't know, I don't think so. But then all the elves I know keep the same time as everyone else, my grandmother sometimes keeps peculiar hours cause I've seen her wandering around at night, but elves need to sleep same as we do, and eat as well.

On the other hand, I think generally speaking elves plan further ahead.

*she grins*

*Crystal takes a few minutes to translate the orcish in her head but she smiles uncertainly as Vau struggles through the elven, looking a bit embarrassed*

Who taught you elven? It's not bad considering you have more tooth than elves do...

*Vau shifts next to her uncomfortably for a moment*

*rrr* Not really know elven, heard few word. Like sound but *rrr* hard to say, or understand.

*A thought seems to occur*

You not ever sing elven? *rrr* I would like hear?

*Crystal smiles to herself then at his question sighs*

I only know a few, not much call for them in performances since most humans don't want to hear elven songs and not many elves want half-breeds anywhere near them, let alone singing at them. The only one I know quite well is "An Innis Aigh" which is "the Happy Isle".

*sings softly*

Seinn an duan seo dhan Innis Àigh
An innis uaine as gile tràigh
Bidh sian air uairean a' bagairt cruaidh ris
Ach se mo luaidh-sa bhith ann a' tàmh

*Stops and thinks*

That's "Sing this song to the Happy Isle, the green isle of whitest sands. Though storms at times threaten severely it is where I love to be".

Grandmother said my mother's father taught it to her on one of his visits. I don't know what island it's talking about though.

*Vau's eyelids droop as Crystal sings, and his customary snarl almost disappears. His voice rumbles almost softly as he replies*

Ugadhol nar-Ithron? Nar-Ethron? Rûz nar-Axir agh Ithron thil kraibag.

Grandfather only comes back to Ithron every quarter century or so, he spends the rest of it sailing Arda. He's even been to Nippon, my grandmother has a dress he got her from there. Could be the happy isle is some unknown little island in the middle of the ocean.

*Crystal looks pensively at the clouds*

I don't think it matters really, tis just a happy place to sing of.

*Vau's eyes close and he is silent for some moments except for the purr of his breath*

Metaphor? Island is *rrr* happy destination all kaalgrisch hope for and *rrr* sea is difficulties must traverse? So maybe metaphor for Elysium?

Possibly... *Crystal muses for a moment* since the last bit translates as "my eternal sleep will be so peaceful, if I lay my head in the Happy Isle". But it could well be a real place, since the song mentions going to the mainland for a while but always wanting to return.

Maybe if he comes back to Ithron I'll ask him. I've never met him though, he was last here before I was born.

*rrr* Perhaps is reference to cycle? Visiting mainland is lbeing born *rrr* live and die. Then return to *rrr*island, but could also stay for eternity?

*Vau places his cheek softly against Crystal's small head, eyes still closed almost peacefully.*

*Crystal's smile almost becomes a grin. Her eyes are bright at some inner amusement*

Maybe. Maybe you are overthinking it, tis just a pretty song.
