Title: Himself Rating: PG Prompt: Villain Category: 100 words Word Count: 100 Summary: Numair reflects. Written for the Goldenlake Drabble Tournament.
Numair swore into his silent bedroom, the fall of the Barrier revealed knowledge he had avoided. No, it was impossible to love someone like that, at least not her.
The mage punched the wall in frustration and winced as pain shot up his arm, why her, why not a court lady or someone his own age. He knew, Numair had known for years what made the young wildmage different from past relationships. Daine was smart and fun and put up with his scholarly habits.
He cursed not the gods or Ozorne, but himself for wanting something that was not his.

Ooh, I like this! (P.S. If this is a GDT Entry, could you put a note to that effect in the title? Thanks! )

My bad can you do that?
Thanks I thought the villain theme needed a twist.
