Alana Stormcloud

Alana stood in her uncles private rooms. Her hair tumbled freely down her back; her cloak was pulled tight around her form, to ward off the chill of memories that flooded her. Her eyes were clouded, and far away. She was lost in bittersweet memories, some she knew to be implants. They were still very real to her. Alana's lips quivered momentarily and became still. Unspoken words hushed behind crimson lips that had tasted countless lives.
In this room her ever changing eyes had locked on one color, one that Mockadane would recognize. His sister’s eyes shone from Alana's face. A pale hand slid out of the slit in the cloak, reaching for a halo disc that held her mothers photo. Alana did not activate it. She had seen it a thousand times over; her mothers face was forever etched into her mind. The shadows of her troubled heart throbbed and ached, calling her a fool. The truths he had woven around her had stretched thin. Her fingers wanted to untie the knots, and see what lay beneath.
The cold, that her cloak had failed to block, began to trace its icy tendrils over Alana's body. A shudder, and a soft moan escaped the confines of her lips. The vampyre Lordess did not know if she was ready to hear all that had to be said. She only knew that if she did not she would be lost....
