Character/Pairing: Kel/Dom
Rating: PG

Lady Knight Keladry of Mindelan stands at the top of the new wall dividing the camp from the forest in New Hope.  She overlooks the old wall, dead in a magical attack weeks after the peace treaty had been signed.  Suddenly, a horn call comes from below.  She looks down, and sees a single soldier, bearing the insignia of the King's Own.  Hurriedly, she signals to the watch commander, and the gates are opened.  However, it is not the sergeant that enters them, but the lady knight that exits them.  And then, only three little words, eight little letters are uttered, quietly, into Kel's ear, eight little letters that make her smile.  "I love you."
