《Clato》chapter thirty-five

Cato ate a bit. He smiled slightly. "Today was amazing."
Clove smiled. "That it was." She murmured.
Cato smiled at her and looked up at the sky, it was a faint orange colour.
Clove closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She had never really feared the games, but she didn't know that there would be days like that in them.
Cato wrapped his arm round her waist and kissed Clove's cheek.
Clove giggled. She hoped the cameras were elsewhere. Little did she know, all eyes were watching the district twelves at that time.
Cato sighed and squeezed her waist gently.
"I love you." Clove whispered softly.
"I love you too." Cato whispered back.

Clove smiled. She was getting tired again. She briefly wondered why a day of sleeping was so tiring.
"Go to sleep, Clover, I can take first watch." Cato told her quietly.
"Thank you." Clove murmured. She lay down, putting her head in Cato's lap and closing her eyes.
Cato stroked Clove's hair gently.
Clove slept peacefully.
Cato kept watch.
Clove woke a few hours later to another faint movement in her stomach. She felt well rested and sat up. "I'll take it from here." She told Cato, patting his shoulder.
Cato flinched at her touch, he was still alert. "Okay then," he muttered.
Clove smiled and adjusted her position so she was upright, sitting cross-legged.
Cato begun to doze off, laying next to Clove.
Clove looked out into the darkness.
Cato had a good sleep.
* * *
The first rays of sun rose behind their backs. Clove smiled.
Cato slowly started to wake, he opened his eyes and blinked a few times.
"Good morning, sunshine!" Clove said, stretching.
"Good morning," Cato murmured and stayed laying down, feeling too lazy to get up.
Clove smiled. "We finished the bird. Hope you're not hungry."
"Nope, are you though?" Cato asked her quietly.
"Kind of." Clove was starving.
"Lets go hunting then," said Cato as he began to get up.
Cato went to grab his bag, finding it gone. He frowned slightly and looked at Clove. "Do you have my bag?"
Clove creased her eyebrows. "No." She said. "Where did you last put it?"
"By the tree." Cato answered and looked around. "Bloody hell." He muttered.

They had come to this place in a mysterious way. A tempest in time whisked her to him then him and her to here, a cabin by a lake, on the top of a mountain, in a valley that no map remembered. Earth, after the Breaking, is a middle ages, modern day, post apocalyptic cluster-fuck. All living things have been altered, in one way or another. The human race is not exempt.

"No. I give the thing that is, hmm... the essence inside, the bility, hmmph, the a-bilty to move and shape. I tell what I need and they do, or do not if they not liking it." 'Okay let's see if I get this straight then, you touched the rope and gave its essence the ability to move like a snake, then you asked it to do what it did and it...?' "NO!

With trouble as her only constant bedmate, the only aim, after being exiled, was to spend her life in peace and relative obscurity. A chance encounter brought back memories of her lost love. The more she pursued her lost love, the more question she faced and the people who were close to her are not what they appear to be. Even in exile, her constant bedmate would not stop. Now, being hunted, embroiled in an age-old conspiracy, torn apart by various factions, how is a lone drow to survive? Of course, by doing what she did best, raising an army. For the dark-elf Matrons have a nasty habit of not staying down when knocked. They rise up again and come back with fury. ===== Series Info======= The world-building is a combination of DnD, Pathfinder and Elderscrolls. Though I prefer to take a few liberties if possible. The yuri/GL Is an extremely slow burn one and the focus is more on the relationship dynamics than romance. =====Author Notes===== This is my first writing attempt, and in the spirit of full disclosure, I am not a native English speaker and I am hoping to use this chance to improve my writing. Constructive criticisms are always welcome. I have a full-time job but I would try to keep the releases consistent.

Being a god is a dream. A very big, ambitious dream that probably no one has ever achieved.

That changed after one fateful event. Nemer, a Slayer, had died from a battle, and from a deal he made with a doubtedly wise god of wisdom and knowledge, Wize, he became the first ever lesser god.
