they have been friends for many, many years now. separated for a few years when he was sent away to the mortal world. now that they have reunited in the most unlikely circumstances, horus wasnāt going to let her slip away from him. being away from the goddess had made him realised his true feelings and how he actually felt about the woman. yes he loves her, he always has but during his time in solitude on earth, he came to know that idun was his other half. his soul mate. someone he couldnāt bear losing.
during the reunion, the pair had gotten together. officially seeing each other as lovers but their friendship still remained the same. if not, better, if that was even possible. now two years have passed since then and horus was ready to commit his life to this woman forever. he had put in a lot of thought and preparation to asking the big question. not to mention, he also had the help of fenrir to make sure the princess would be totally free for tonight without causing any suspicion to arise.
horus had sent for the birds to retrieve his lady and bring her up to the clouds. he was going to propose to the woman while they were up alone in the skies. the moon was bright and full. the winds were blowing a cold but gentle breeze. the cloud below his feet was soft but firm. up here, it would seem like they were in a different realm. it was like magic indeed, only capable at the hands of the sky god.
the ring prepared in hand has a gorgeous rainbow moonstone to signify the harmony of their future engagement. the stone also meant balance and providing calmness, something that idun brings in horusās life. not only that, but the sky god has also imbued some of his powers into the ring. to serve as a connection between him and her and to protect the latter if she was ever in danger.
he could feel his heart beating wildly in his chest as he waits for idunās arrival. he had on his best suit and he wondered if the young goddess would be as nervous as he is if she was in his shoes.
Idun could never imagine a life without him. She was ready to be just the friend and see him marry someone that was not her, as long as it meant they would not be apart but with time, she became greedy. As a princess, such behavior was not tolerated, perhaps even more reason to keep it to herself, as well as the feelings for the sun god. But on earth, Idun came to the conclusion that if she ever found him again, she would not hide behind a mask of royal expectations or her father's demands, she would act upon her feelings.
And now that she finally did, everything fell into place. Even Fenrir met someone he could hold dear, which only encouraged the princess even further to seek out an unknown but also exciting future. Just as unknown to her as the request of the wolf to join him on a stroll, he would not tell the woman where they were going. And still, Idun left the comfort of her home, as long as it kept her mind from running about Horus all day long. Indeed, things were going well between them but lately, he seemed a little out of it, nervous and avoided her. She could not imagine a proposal of any sorts, though his antics could make you think of it. No, that could not be.
Only when Fenrir left them alone on the cloud again, she fully grasped the situation yet the traumatized part of Idun, the one that saw him vanish from her grip, told her this was a dream and she would wake up soon. She did not want to wake up. Not without Horus. "Dear?" the blonde called out to him, approaching with small steps as she studied the man's features. After all these years, he was ( and would always be ) the most endearing being to her. "Fenrir brought me here, is something wrong?"
