Drinks with Luna [TS: May 12, 1:08pm]

[Roland]

"In a way" *Looking back at Luna* " You know I have feelings for you Luna. I had an instant attraction to not only your carefree spirit and playfulness, but also your honesty. Both are rare qualities here in Ralinwood and I hope you never lose them..." *Taking a moment before continuing* " ..but I can't be with you. Not now. Maybe not ever. Not in the way you deserve." *Waits a moment longer and watches her face* " I don't mean to hurt you, and please believe me when I say this has nothing to do with you. This is entirely about me. Especially since the disappearance of my master, this is something I feel I must do regardless of my other wants. My focus has to be entirely on my smithing if it is to flourish and to be of any help to this town." * Turns away for her* " I hope you can forgive me and that we may still be friends, but if you need space I will understand."
