The Pinnacle
Amarantha looked up as a winged golden figure approached her with a forward, friendly air. She was surprised to be addressed by the stranger. Surprised, and charmed. After so long alone and outcast, it was strange to be addressed like just a normal person who belonged.
Before she could answer, the Protector spoke. A party? Fun? If she were strictly honest, Amarantha had to admit it was rather out of her wheel house. But she should at least try to fit in here.
She watched with interest as gifts came floating down all around. Nothing came to her, but she could feel something touch her - similar to what happened when she first came to the portal, but instead of taking away, it felt like it had given something back. Not the full extent of her former abilities - she could still feel the emptiness. But it was now just a little less empty
She turned excitedly to her companion - whose name she still hadn't learned - but saw that he seemed distressed somehow.
"Are you all right?" she asked gently. "Is something wrong?"
He retreated a couple of steps and Amarantha stayed back, respecting the need for space.

You were named for the Amaranth
Whose bloom means life unending
And whose name means "Love Lies Bleeding"
