[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Brinn snorted, "That's very unhelpful."

[CrimsonMoon]

" But giving you problems to solve makes it easier to pass the time, yes?"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Brinn opened his mouth to argue, but sighed and shrugged, "I suppose."

[CrimsonMoon]

She grins but settles back next to him instead," So... Just take riddles step by step, the poem.. Remember the first line? 'Tho’ much is taken, much abides' whatta ya think?"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Brinn nibbled on his bottom lip, "Well.."

[CrimsonMoon]

" 'Tho' much is taken, much abides'. Think," she pokes his head playfully

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Brinn glanced at her in annoyance and shrugged, "I don't know. It sounds like even though things are taken away, there are things that still remain."

[CrimsonMoon]

" Fantastic!" She yelps happily before grinning," next; ''and though, We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven',"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Uh...we aren't as strong as we used to be?" Brinn guessed.

[CrimsonMoon]

" Exactly, even though that was super vague," she smiles playfully and resumes," 'that which we are, we are',"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Now that one is just pointless," Brinn sighed in aggravation.

[CrimsonMoon]

" It's not!" She pouts," it means that what we are now will be us forever... Obviously,"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Yes, so obvious," he replied, raising his eyebrows.

[CrimsonMoon]

" then how is that NOT important?!" She howls with mock frustration before sticking her tongue out," 'One equal temper of heroic hearts',"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

He sighed, "Do we have to keep playing this guessing game? Can't you just tell me?"

(We need more plots together!)

[CrimsonMoon]

She rolls her eyes and grumbles about some 'dumbass' before murmuring," It's about how physical strength WILL erode over time but you are still YOU and your own will will eventually be the only strength you need to live on... Forever."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Brinn listened to her, nodding. He knew that he was being a bit rude to her, but he was tired and sore and in desperate need of a bath. Figuring out riddles just wasn't his top priority.

[CrimsonMoon]

Se grins suddenly at him," you ARE kinda smelly.." It was almost as if she was reading his thoughts and mumbles," Ok... I guess i'll get Burne.."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Really?" Brinn brightened up, "Am I allowed to get cleaned off?"

[CrimsonMoon]

" Yep, if you wanna have a trident on your neck while ypu are!" She chirps and grins innocently
