"It's... Complicated," she said, putting her plate off to the side as she leaned her elbows onto her knees.
"I was... Raised in Quon," she began, her eyes taking on a far-away look, "though I wasn't born there... I found the water shard when I was sixteen, though I don't know how old I am now," she decided to leave out her father and mother for now and how she freed the Water God from imprisonment in the south.
"Not long after, I encountered the demon Necros. I was... He tortured me. Until I begged for death... At the last moment I was saved and taken to a sanctuary in the ruins of the Druid temple. I went back home, to Quon then, but he followed me. A lot of people suffered because of it... So I was driven into exile and traveled south.
"I went until I reached the ocean. I've always like the water... And I felt better just being able to be there. I stayed secluded for a long while, until I met another demon... A hanyou," her eyes welled with tears as she remembered, "We became... Close. Then he left me... He left the peace we lived in together to find a way to end the distant chaos. I wish he didn't... I wish he would have just stayed with me..."
At this point tears began escaping the confinds of her eyes, but she was not yet done. After a few sniffles, she continued on. Still, she left out her encounter with Vizierre and the origins of her birth. It just seemed to be something she was touchy about.
"After he left, I decided to visit home... I went back north to Quon. I wasn't even there for a full day when the demons attacked again. I tried to stop it... I tried to stay myself... But I couldn't. I lost control and... And then I don't know what happened. It was like I was dreaming... And when I woke up I saw the entire village, destroyed. Everyone and everything was dead... Two demons and myself in the middle of it all. You've already met those two...
"I couldn't... I couldn't go on... Then I saw Him again. He found me when I needed him most and took me to a safe place... He cared for me, made me well again... And then he left me for a second time. Now I'm here."
Aeife looked to Gordon to see his reaction as she tried to stay her tears. There was still more that she didn't tell, but what she did might've been more than enough for him to hear.

Aeife bit her lower lip as she fought her tears. When Gordon embraced her, she couldn't bring herself to hug him back. She had been reminded about Shouyin, and how despite everything she still held the fleeting hope that he might come back to her... How she still loved him. After thinking about it a moment, it occured to her that she never actually said that she did. She never told him 'I love you'. They had... Expressed it, once, but that was the day he left. Somehow she felt that she had done something wrong.
She was roused from her thought as she heard a knocking. Her eyes turned away from Gordon as her hand raised to her cheeks to wipe her tears away, leaving him to answer the call if he wished.

Aeife had since moved the plate over to the night stand next to the bed and layed back on the pillow. She felt exhausted now... With a sigh she curled up, resting on her side, and closed her eyes.
