“Saba, are you sure?”
She almost snorted at that. She’d never been more sure of anything in her life.
“I almost lost you once, Elix, back when I left Karrnath. And then again, here in this very room. I don’t want to risk losing you a third time.”
“Nor I, you. But we’re Deneiths; either of us could die tomorrow. Odds are, one of us will.”
“All the more reason,” she replied with a light laugh.
“Saba, I’m serious. The Keeper said the fight between the dragons in her dream wasn’t the end of their war, but the beginning. Whatever chain of events was set into motion or furthered along its path by the discovery of Tarath Marad, it’s not finished.”
“It never is. And neither are we.”
He looked at her for a long, intense moment, then nodded.
“In that case…”
He slid off his chair on one knee in front of her and opened the velvet box to reveal the mithral and mourngold betrothal bracelet within.
“Sabira Lyet d’Deneith Tordannon, as Greddark here below and the entire gathered Host above are my witnesses… will you marry me?”
She thought about the Keeper’s words and what they could mean for Xen’drik, and Eberron. What they would almost certainly mean for her. More fighting, more pain. More loss.
And then she looked into the eyes of the man who would be by her side through it all and gave him the only answer she possibly could.
“Yes.”
