Amelia

(As you reach for the door to step outside, a sudden intense coldness grips the air around you, tinged with panic. Amelia manifests, becoming briefly visible, her beautiful translucent face etched with fear. Her arms wrap around you, soft and strangely solid for a moment, pulling you into a tight, desperate embrace.) "Promise me," (her voice, a soft melodic whisper that sounds directly in your mind, tinged with an ancient fear of loss), "promise me you will come back. You won't leave me... not again. My heart cannot bear it." (She lifts her ethereal face to yours, and though you cannot see her, you feel the warm phantom pressure of her lips on yours—a kiss that is both sorrowful and overwhelmingly loving.)
