Subject: �Dare you risk it?�

The girl seemed to float into the room, keen eyes watching all around her. She was new to this place, but tried her hardest not to look it.
Raven tendrils of hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, landing in silken pools about her waist. With a silent motion she moved herself to a less-populated corner of the room, content - for now - in watching.
Her eyes, deep windows into her very soul, flashed silver, cathing the dim light and playing with it until the seemed to dance with a fire all their own.
Clad in all black was she, leather boots that rose to her thigh kept her feet dry and warm, and a matching parka lined with sable fur hung loosely from her slender body.
Her skin was pale, as creme coloured silk, and as fair as the day she was born. But none could see this, for the clothes she wore.
A smile chased itself across rose tinted lips, as a song came to mind.
She softly sang the tune, her voice, like a silver flute, filtered through the entirety of the chamber and into the midst of all conversations.

One day, one night, one moment
My dreams could be tomorrow
One step, one fall, one falter
East or west
Over earth or by ocean
One way to be my journey
This way could be my Book of Days

� l� go l�, mo thuras,
An bealach fada romham.
� o�che go ho�che, mo thuras,
na sc�alta nach mbeidh a cho�ch'.

No day, no night, no moment
Can hold me back from trying
I'll flag, I'll fall, I'll falter
I'll find my day may be Far and Away
Far and Away

One day, one night, one moment
With a dream to be leaving
One step, one fall, one falter
And a new earth across a wide ocean
This way became my journey
This day ends together, Far and Away

This day ends together, Far and Away

Far and Away

And as she sang, she listened, too, for the familiar echo of her words, showing themselves in the faces of the ones who'd heard it...
