Almost assuredly, this will come across as a gushy, mushy recollection... And, you know what? I don't care! Sure, the Asuran side of me wants to be non-emotionally techno-babbly, astute with observations about location, ambient creatures, temperature and architecture; but, the Dott side of me wants to simply enjoy the moment and ignore the impulse to self-analyse my feelings. Thus, I'll try to get this out without crying. Oh, but they're tears of joy! Not heartache (there's enough of that in this world to go around!)
"I have something to show you," he said. "Meet me at the portal to the Mists." Already, my interest was peaked - and not just because my young Asuran prize was such a cutie, but he has already genuinely showed me so much more of Tyria than I experienced on my own. Granted, my own studies into the Mists had taken me away from exploration, but with this gentleman by my side, I really enjoyed traversing the lands and seeing new sights. I suppose it's just better when you're with someone you love, no?
Happy Valentine's Day 2018!
