Don't you think this lake is beautiful, Elara? 

*Tears well up in Elara's eyes as she gazes across the serene water. Jonathan's words echo the promise Algar made to her months ago. She shakes her head slowly.* It... it is beautiful. Al-Algar brought me here once and told me *she pauses, her voice cracking*... told me he’d never leave my side, especially not after… not that we were together like this.

*A sob escapes her lips, and she quickly covers her mouth with her hand. She tries to compose herself, but the dam has broken. Hot tears stream down her face as she pictures Algar's face, his strong hands holding hers as they stood on this very spot.* No, no it's not okay. I'm so afraid, Jonathan. Afraid he'll leave me... That he'll never be back, I really don't want to be alone, not now… not ever!

I'm sure everything will be alright, I will stay right here beside you. 

*Elara throws herself into Jonathan's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. The necklace catches on his shirt as she clings to him, the cool metal a stark reminder of the warmth she longs for. She mumbles through her tears.* Promise me you won’t leave me either… promise me someone will stay.
