Crystal laughed brightly, the true love of life blossoming through her gentle laugh. How could Cordelia think that she wouldn't want her around? The thought of finally having someone around that was like a sister to her was one that thrilled her.
"Oh sweet, dear Cordelia. I would love it if you stayed in the Shire. The Shire is a beautiful, welcoming place. I hope that you find that same peace that I have always found here. Building a house with you would be a hysterical adventure, but one I am up to," Crystal replied gently.
She turned in her seat, to rest her back against the bar. She looked around the room and thought she saw a face that she recognized. Her heart stopped. Could it be? Was it really Hama? She got up and headed over there, her heart directing her more than her head.
"Hama? Is that you?" She asked the man, coming up behind him. She held her breath, hoping vainly that it was. She hadn't seen Hama in so long and she had missed him something terrible.
