I was riding on horseback, following a Fia as she walked down the streets of England. She wore a cloak, dark and concealed, as if she didnt want to be seen. Strange she would do this, she is usually so open and trusting. She made movement to glance behind herselfI quickly hid the horse and I with magicseeing no one, she continued on.
Finally she came to a warehouse. She pulled the door open and went inside. I got off my horse and followed, reaching the door as it closed shut. She looked at the door startled while I believed she had seen me. But no, I had forgotten I was invisible to the human eye. I closed the door and watched as Fia slowly calmed herself. She reached into her cloak and pulled out a knife, a knife I recognized as my own. She held the weapon as if to stab herself!
I rushed forward and grabbed her arm, ending my invisibility in doing so. Fia! I cried. What are you doing?
Sam! she cried (that is what she said), her urgency in her voice matching my own.
So she didnt want me to find her
I pulled the knife from her grasp, (it came from her fingers easily, as if she had lost the strength I had known three days prior). Why? I demanded. Why?
Tears ran from Fias eyes, her shoulder length red-brown hair wet from the walk in the rain. Her dark eyes couldnt meet my own. I She was hiding something, something grave. I . Her voice was soft, she was scared of what?
I said nothing more only my eyes told her my feelings.
Sam she whispered. I I do not want Her voice failed her.
What is it? I asked softly, gently; reaching for her. My fingers caressed her hair, pressing them against her head. She faintly cringed, resisted, (a normal human would have never felt it, but I did). My fingers slid underneath her wet hair to the still dry flesh underneath.
No she whispered, as my other hand touched her cheek.
But she did not resist as my hand went from her cheek to her forehead, and moved the bangs from her eyes; feeling her forehead. It was hot, over heating; sweat, not rain on the flesh.
Ah she has the fever.
Why didnt you come to me? I asked. Why?
I didnt want to be a burden. Fria said. I didnt want to hold you back any longer.
I am an Elani, I said. I can cleanse this.
But there are many far worthier than I, people who have a place in this world. She didnt say she didnt have a place but she didnt have to; I could read her beautiful features I know what she knew. But she was wrong and in a way, I was as well. For not telling her; telling her she did have a place, a place at my side.
If I lose you, Fia, I lose the reason why I live in this world, I said. The words came strong and insisting, to my surprise, yet I knew it was the truth. If she died the reason for what I did would be gone
My dream ended right here. I wish I could understand it but I do not. I am stumped by the fact that 1. I am in England, 2. The young woman resembled not one but two of my dearest friends whom I have great affection for, 3. How did Elani become part of the dream? It is a title for a certain fanfic I am writing currently and the setting was definitely not where an Elani was supposed to be. Oh well, in dreams anything can happen.

The people who do not have that kind of protection, are always alert for raids, ambushes, road robbers etc.
However since I would prefer to do not, it would seem you have characters which solely use their positions to define their lives and not enrich their lives. Though you seem to be taking it a step off the deep end. Don't they suffer from too much stress on the job? Can't they do something outside of it like caligraphy or music or even visiting a pub or something (or are they also prohibited from having alcohol too)?
You can't function if you're stressed out about something all of the time. You tend to make more mistakes or worse become totally obsessed.
