They kissed for a long time and vented their longing for each other. For Loriel, this was truly the best day of his long life. All his yearning, waiting, and perseverance paid off when Elise came back to his life.
And what's made this wholesome reunion even better was the fact that their son was still alive. And not only did he survive, but he was also still around.
After he became immortal, Loriel was ready with the possibility that if he was reunited with his wife again someday, he would only have several decades together with her and their children to come.
As an immortal, he would stay young forever, while his wife and children would age and die, just like what happened to everyone he knew in his lifetime.
Marc Sanderman was his only family left before he met Elise and someday Marc would be dead too and perhaps the Ashborn's and Sanderman family line would be truly extinct.
