"Chione..." Bomani whispered, almost as if in prayer. He looked directly into her eyes, and took both her hands into his. "I am ready. We are perfect for each other...it made sense to take this step." he began, intending to address each of her concerns. "And I am your husband...I will make sure I will do everything to make you a great mother." he assured her, kissing her softly on the lips. "You will be great. You are tender, sweet, and caring, all traits of a good mother. Our child will cry, but all babies cry, no matter what." he reminded her. "And out here...your status doesn't matter. Nobody in this tribe knows who you really are. Nobody will ever need to. And if they do...I'm a warrior, Chione. I was born a warrior, and when I die, I will still be a warrior. And because of that, I will defend you, and our child, against anything." he promised, kissing her again. "Trust me...we can do this. We will do this. Put aside your fear." he whispered.

Chione began to feel at ease, each of her points being relieved by his words, with the exception of the last. "But, Bomani, though your heart beats in time with mine and my hands fit in yours," she said softly, squeezing his hand slightly, "aren't you putting yourself at risk?" She asked. "Even if you are a warrior...I..." She paused, reconsidering her words before continuing. "I almost don't want you to be." Chione looked up at him, hoping he understood. She never wanted him to be in a life or death situation ever again, never wanted to place him in that position. "I can't put you in danger again." She whispered, and then a chill went up her spine.
