He was feasting with Vidugavia and the other chieftains when she came in, bearing the cups as was their custom, and Valacar noticed that same anticipation building up within him for her to come close, pour the mead, lock eyes, graze his fingers, mayhap, as she held out the cup--
And like an arrow came the realization that always one of her kinswomen, never herself, performed the ritual for him, and he was surprised to find under his anger not contempt but deep-seated longing.
For the first time, he knew that Vidumavi alone could quench this thirst he felt.

Anyway, I'm so glad you liked it. I am somewhat fixated on this couple. Their history is so intriguing and, though they may not have fully realized it, so life-altering to so many! "Even the smallest person can change the course of the future" and so on ;-) I love writing them! Thank you for reading.
