He was scared. For the first time in a long time.

The Fearlings were growing in strength and numbers, and she was fading fast.

He sat in the dark cage, holding her close. Her head rested in his lap, and he stroked her wild brown hair absently.

If the Guardians didn't rescue them, they would soon die. He looked down at her in the darkness. She was shivering. He could barely see her. His light was fading fast, and her's even faster.

He looked absently at the walls. He picked up his staff that held a stray moonbeam.

"Please hurry", he whispered to the moonbeam, which flickered weakly in response, "We can't last much longer"

He closed his eyes from exhaustion.

Please hurry.

He looked back down to his wife.

His queen.

His Katherine.
