"No, she can't."
listening and just holding her hand, before frowning lightly.
"It's not a lack of interest. I work as much as I do because I want you to be comfortable and safe. and I haven't been working as much as I used to, like I promised you."
"Structured is a word for it. more we're all worried about your health. and things will get better, and be nicer. but yes we don't run around like we used to, or just go an trips just to go on trips anymore. But you know what, Malikhai is old enough, he can watch his brother and such and we can go do whatever we want. There's no reason to keep locked up in the fortress...and no reason for you to become as much a hermit as I have been."

"But I don't want to be comfortable and safe all the time. I, I want to fall out of a tree, I want to trip and roll down a hill and come back with a smirk, I want to wake up in the morning sore from taking reverie in odd positions. Granted, I do that now but I mean the regular odd positions I tended to amaze with."
Shaking her head lightly, of course she meant before beging pregnant and likely afterwards as well. Unless everyone wanted to decide that for her as well. "I can't stand being locked up, you know that. I go crazy...which I proved quite well back in Neriak. Assassin slapping not included, that was normal." Looking to him with a light smirk, "No one is ever going to be as much of a hermit as you are or have been."
Looking back to the water some. "But right now, we know how things are."

A small smirk.
"Okay then. once this has passed, I promise you, no more harking on things. you can climb trees, have fun to your hearts content. and I know you don't like being locked up. and I'm working on something to help with that. Something to make you not feel so locked up....it's not working well right now, but if it works like I want it should help."
a chuckle.
"Hey, Sevilin is about as much a hermit as me, so I think that counts. and yes...we know how things are right now. but...you know...if you don't want to go through this...you don't have to."

"Are you always trying to think up some magical useful idea or thing to cure whatever is wrong, aren't you?" It was endearing in a way, and that's how he had always been. Rolling her eyes lightly, "Okay...maybe Sevilin is as bad as you. But that's all I'm giving you." Going quiet as the subject matter went back to things she'd rather not think about. "I know I don't."

Galesen gave a small nod to Isle as he kept on flexing his fingers. "Well then we should let Nillrik find out all of the interesting things that exist down here then, while watching him of course." A look to the boy and he raised an eyebrow with a smirk, he knew the kid got in trouble most of the time. "Well it is about time to go to bed, all those energy outbursts really did a number so I'm going to go. I'll see you guys tomorrow." So after finishing his water Galesen got up and left after saying goodbye, he was going to have a long day ahead of him tomorrow.

"Don't want to go through with it...or don't want to give up on it?"
A small nod.
"I would use more conventional means if they'd actually work. but more often then not, they won't for the situations we come across. Your mother and your father are also willing to help however they can."
then a slight grin at her.
"Broog went to Andal."

"Whatever comes first I guess." That was all the answer she had to that...after all, she knew that Zahara and Malik had already made decisions anyway. Nodding however to his scheming and apparent involvement of everyone she knew, though a slight surprised blink. "Oh no. I can only imagine what he's doing there. You let him go by himself?"

"Actually, no. he left apparently while we were at tournament...the rumor is that you weren't as happy with all the jewelry he makes as usual, so he went to andal to find something to cheer you up...and honestly it's not like anyone here was going to try and stop him when he gets it in his head that something has to be done for you."
A shrug and rubbing her shoulder lightly.
"I love you. and there's nothing that's ever going to change that, or my interest in you. in fact, when your pregnant it's a frustration for me too. I can't do things with you that I want to, you know. I can't sneak up and pick you up in a hug and spin you around, I can't take you to bed as I did when we were married. but how about that. after this child.." either way it turned out, he thought to hismelf. "..we'll go out, just the two of us. do something fun."

"Well...while the effort is appreciated, I can only wear but so much before I'm all weighted down. Besides with Zahara monitoring my weight, it's a pain to take it all off. Lovely as it is and as sweet as he is for trying to make me feel better." Letting her head rest against his shoulder with a tug to her collar with her free hand.
"Even if I drag you out into the dirt, feed your clothes and gear to something wild, force you to muck around in said dirt and not let you have anything from home?" Also known as Piper camping, though she never tormented his as much as she possibly could she was forgiving at least in that respect. Sighing softly and giving somewhat of a smile. "I'd like that."
Sitting with him quietly for a few more moments before tugging at his hand. "Come on, let's go inside. You have hair to brush because I need reverie and you want my hair long.

A slight grin and a chuckle.
"Feed my clothes and gear to something wild? good lord woman."
but a nod all the same.
"Even if. we'll go have some fun and relax."
before getting up when his hand was tugged, and walking with her.
"Alright. I'll brush it so well you'll wake up with it shining. even if that means I reverie on the floor with a brush in my hand."

"Well how else am I going to persuade you to camp like I like to camp. Hm?" Perhaps a little better feeling, but the weight was still there on her shoulders so to speak. Nothing got better right away and she knew if things continued to go 'well' then everything would get worse. "Just remember, you're the one who wants it long. It's your full responsibility."

Day Change - 5 Days Later There was the smell of sea salt and the noise of something rocking along with the sounds of water outside, it was familiar and soothing at the same time and a small noise was made as the body shifted in bed. "Has my son come out of reverie? With no fuss this time too, that's perfect!" The vision was filled feminine like hands and the world began to move after they held the tiny body and picked him up. A small noise of happiness was made when the a face was seen, she was beautiful, long brown hair and green eyes, her elven ears just poked out behind her hair as she wore a gold circlet around her forehead. She had the sweetest smile with a tiny mole on her left cheek. "How is my son doing?" A small kiss was placed on the child's cheek before he was brought in close and given a light squeeze. The little child clung to his mother and made another happy noise, he didn't want to let go. "How's he doing Linwell?" A strong but firm male voice could be heard and the little child pulled away to see a man looking at them. He had a solid build, short silver hair and blue eyes, dressed in normal clothing as his sword hung from his hip. "He's doing fine Draken. As good as he was yesterday." The child and Linwell moved closer and the baby reached out, wanting to be held by his father. The man took the boy from his mother and held him close and the child did the same thing to his father like he did to his mother, he just clinged to the man and made another noise. "Good, I want to do it today." There was a slight pause and the tension went thick. "I don't think we-" "Linwell," Draken had cut her off as his grip held the small boy even closer. "Look where we are, do you really want to take a chance? Even you being a master of your craft as am I, there is no possible chance we can survive down here! It is best we do it now so we can be ready, just in-case." There was another pause followed by a sigh. "Alright then, I'll get things ready." Linwell moved away and began to look through some trunks, a book was placed on a table and opened to a particular page, the child looked at it and saw some scribbles. "Hey, son." The boy looked up to his father and smiled when he saw Darken smiling at him. "So, you feeling up for a little magic trick today Galesen?"Galesen suddenly pulled himself out of reverie and pressed a hand to his head, he couldn't believe he just reveried about his parents. He shook his head and sighed, he wished he could reverie about them more but this was the only time he ever did ever since he learned about his name years and years ago. So he got out of bed and got cleaned up and all, his gauntlets causing a bit of trouble as he tried to button his pants up, but at least he could do it better than yesterday. With everything done he left his room and walked toward the dining hall, he wanted to get a good breakfast in him before he went down to the arena and do what he had been doing for the past few days. Though even with his current problem at least he was able to spend time with Nillrik and Isle plus all the other kids as well, he wasn't going to be couped up in the arena all day of course. So when he reached the dinning hall he quickly asked for some waffles from a servant who was walking behind him and sat down with his arms crossed and his eyes closed, it was going to be another long day today.

"You've had over a week. this thing better be working by now. I gave you all the time to tournament, and your lucky I was feeling generous when it wasn't finished when we returned."
Malik had his arms crossed, watching the elves and gnomes in front of him with a very unpleasant look on his face.
"In our defense, you're asking for a rather difficult melding of two entirely different fields of magic and on top of that, adding in gnomish tinkering. clerical magic and enchanting don't collide very well..."
"I'm not asking for your excuses as to why it wasn't ready. I'm asking if it is ready now. You've had since the time we realized how difficult this pregnancy was going to be till now. and by now I am expecting results."
"We think so. it's not as easy to hide as you wanted, but it should work."
picking up a pair of bracelets that had wires with patched attached to them coming off.
"these will transmit like the linkstones, even across planes. they'll feed energy, adrenaline...things triggered in the body by emotion or excitement. the blend works to also prevent overamounts of anything as per your requests. the attachments stick to various places on the arm, so it can be hidden by long sleeves."
Malik nodded lightly, letting them continue while looking over one of the devices. testing out the patch attachments on his arm and seeing how well they'd stick.
"the glasses are for the one set only, and they provide imersive visual details of what the other sees...but that part reuqires the other to were this earpiece..and it's temple patch attachment. that's not hidable, and honestly I can't think who would want to wear it in public society."
"That's not your concern. as long as it works. have you given it any testing to make sure it's safe and workable? and how many failures have we had and what was the cost?"

Nillrik seemingly came out from under the table slowly, his head poking up above it as Galesen had sat down. Tilting his head at the other elf, that was weird. "You have something on your head." Poking at his own forhead to illustrate his point. Of course him being up without his mother around was not uncommon for him."
"I don't know, I saw him head downstairs earlier. I mean the downstairs downstairs." Isle was sitting with Piper in her bedroom, braiding the other elf's hair. "He probably thinks you're still in reverie and wanted to make sure things were on their way for the day before letting his attention to more important things." Smiling lightly. "Cheer up Silverfeather. We can't have any fun together if you're all gloomy. Besides, I brought you a present."
"I really shouldn't be up right now. Usually I'm down till the late morning or early afternoon. But I'd rather not talk about me. How's Nillrik doing?"
"He's enjoying himself as most boys do. He likes to tag around with Dhairiss actually."

Galesen opened his eyes and looked at Nillrik who he didn't realize was there, the reverie had bigger affect on him than he thought since he didn't not notice that the boy was there when he sat down. "What?" Galesen touched his forehead and rubbed it a bit before pulling his fingers away and saw nothing. "There's nothing there." Silly boy, Galesen knew there was nothing there so why did he say such a thing?
