Aruqu stood in front of the large vertical window overlooking the Temple courtyard. She watched the small figure of Yahen cross from the main gate to the Temple doors below. She was too high up, 100 meters, for him to see her, but she saw him. Dejected and lost. She knew what happened at Foxtail. It pained her that her Beloved was suffering, but she vowed to keep her distance and not interfere with his life.
Dawher, the Second Temple Goddess, walked up to Adruqu and bowed. "Mother Goddess, Yahen, fulfilled the quest."
Adruqu, still looking out at the courtyard, nodded. "Dawher, my daughter, what do you think of my infatuation with Yahen?"
Dawher smiled. "I think it's adorable, Mother. A woman of your age --" She laughed lightly.
"You don't think it destructive?"
"What can destroy you? I know he is not your Sean, but you want him to be?"
Adruqu turned around. "I thought I did, but I feel I may never have my own personal Sean. My true Beloved is uniquely possible because of his circumstances. I should know that, yet, I was hoping his soul would transcend to this one."
"It did, Mother. It did, but this is an age of superstition and fanatism. Yahen is what he is meant to be."
Adruqu knew it. She nodded.
"Mother," Dawher said, "may I have him?"
Adruqu eyed her second daughter. "And do what with him?"
"Love him, of course."
"And?"
"Make him my own. I can see he is a disappointment to you. Let him be my disappointment. I have to defined attachments to your Beloved, so I will not be constranged.
