"Hello, we are looking for druig or cora?" I heard a familiar voice speak from behind me. I turn around to see Gilgamesh and Thena speaking to a villager.

"Thena! Gilgamesh!" I scream and run into both of their arms. They both hug me and laugh.

"Hello cora, how are you? You look beautiful as always." Thena let go and smiled to me.

It's been nearly 2,000 years since we parted each other.

"I'm doing good! A few centuries ago me and druig got married! We tried to reach out but no one was there." I showed them my hand and druig walked out of the main hall.

"Hello gilgamesh, hello thena. What brings you back?" He comes to my side.

"We were wondering if you can put Thena to sleep just for a bit, I need a break." Gilgamesh smiled and hugged Thena from the side.

"Sure he can, where are you heading?" I asked. We all sat down at a near table outside.

"Thinking the coast not sure yet." Gil smiled and looked between us.

"So how long have you guys." Gil pointed between us.

"A thousand years already. Cora do you want to go inside and find a cottage just for Thena to rest?" Druig faced me and I nodded.

I went to gather extra pillows and blankets. I checked my chart to see which is empty and I head outside.

"Not having you guys there nearly killed her." I stoped around the corner and heard druig say with a harsh tone.

"We didn't know." I heard Thena speak.

"Exactly, you guys know where we have been for over 2 thousand years and not one person has come to see her. The only reason you are is for yourselfs." I walk to them upset and druig for nearly yelling at them.

"Here you go Thena. Let's go, your going to be right next to us. It's really pretty!" I smiled and everyone followed me. It was a silent walk.

"Okay Thena lay down." Druig said as Thena rested, his eyes turned the bright gold color he had and Thena was asleep. I brought the blanket over her and we walked out.

"Okay I'll be back soon! It was nice catching up cora I'm sorry we didn't do things sooner." Gil looked kinda sad.

I turned to look at druig still looking upset.

"It's okay gil go have fun! We will take care of Thena." Gil left and I turned to druig,

"What is the matter with you?" I nearly yelled at him. I walked back into our shared room and he followed behind.

"What cora?" He followed me into our room.

"Why would you tell them that! I didn't want them to know." I turn to look at him upset.

"Didn't want them to know what? That you cried for days knowing they couldn't come to our wedding? Or or that they didn't care enough to check on you for 10 centuries? Or better yet that you now know how much they don't care about you." Druig said. I haven't heard this harsh tone. That harsh tone directed at me.

"What is your problem! Yeah I cried okay, they are the only family I have so sorry for wanting them there but they were all probably busy! Just because they couldn't answer doesn't mean they don't care." My voice got shaken up. I rolled my eyes as he just stood there.

"Cora. They never checked on you. The only reason gilgamesh and Thena came down here was for their benefit don't be stupid." He said and walked out the door.
