"He has to be stopped, what else would you suggest I do?" Keeping her voice down for the sole sake of the child in the room. Without Zykariel around she would have begun yelling and that would have made things even worse. She was so pissed she didn't even trust herself to touch anyone. "He's done this once before though that wasn't nearly as disgusting as this. In fact I'm even liable to possibly thank him for the first time but this, he goes too far and someone has to stand up to him. If no one else will, then I will." And with that she left the room and headed to the spot she'd seen him last. Palming her brand new dagger she used the hilt to bang on the door of Malik and Piper's room. "Malik D'vinn, you have crimes to answer for. If you wish we can take this down to the arena what with impressionable ones about but you will answer for them." I will be your judge, jury and executioner if it comes to that, she added silently.

Sevilin merely gave a huff and a sigh, shaking his head as she left the room. She was being stupid...sure she may be upset about this but when she got upset she was so narrow minded, could never see the radius effect of the things that she was going to do at all. And she would have to pay for it over and over again. It was okay to be upset...but not to go cut throat and all about everything. A look to Arthur. "You should go get some rest...do yourself a favor and don't try to save her."
Crimes to answer for...oh lord, he had done something horribly bad hadn't he? See, this was why she didn't want to know what he did...though that never seemed to protect her from any of it these case. Case and point of right now. Seemed she meant business too. Now she was left with a choice. Take a side, play referee or pretend it wasn't happening? And there went her damnable emotions as she entered decision hell, but none the less she got up and went to the door, opening it but not looking at the woman before her, no doubt she would see something in her eyes she wouldn't like. "You're not going to find him here and don't ever come to this door looking for him with ill intent, you understand that?" Nope, thier bedroom was the one place she didn't want anything like this associated with and she was adamant about that.

Zahara narrowed her own eyes and nodded curtly. "I'd rather not do it here anyway. A man's private domain isn't a place to be accused." So he wasn't in his room, well that made sense. "Thank you Piper." And she spun on her heel and walked away. Time to check his usual haunts. His study was looked into, no Malik and then she thought to question a slave. How cute, the loving husband getting food for his wife. If only that was the only side of Malik there was. Walking into the kitchen she located him and shook her head. "You'll never learn will you Malik? Events are not yours to play with at your own whim and it's high time you learned that. You have a crime to answer for but in deference of Piper's condition I'll let you go get her settled first. You can pick a place where we'll do this but you will answer for what you have done, yet again. Count on that."

Malik turned his head lightly at Zahara, and noticed her look, and a slight smirk crossed his features. three guesses as to what this is about.
"Alright. meet me downstairs in ten minutes. and you'll get everything that's coming to you. and you'll see why, yet again, you are playing with things best left alone."
And he went upstairs, bringing food to Piper. though getting closer she was going to be upset. Joy. tally another marker over there under Zahara.
"Lunch is here."

Arthur sighed as he listened in on the so called conversation that was jumping back and forth between Zahara and Sevilin, it seemed that no matter what anyone would say the female drow will still go off to find Malik and beat the crap out of him for what he had done. Though half of him was happy to hear that Zahara was going to do this the other half was worried; just what if Zahara got badly hurt by Malik? The guilt will hang over his head as much a the rape has been bothering him. So he let the drow leave without another word and Arthur sighed again, there was nothing he could do even if the stuff Zahara said for him to get from her room worked quickly enough. But of course he had to be reminded that he couldn't do anything by Sevilin, so slowly he turned his head over to the father figure and paused for a minute before answering. "I wouldn't even if I wasn't sore, I know my place Sevilin..." Then with a light bow of his head Arthur limped his way to the door and left.
About around fifteen minutes later Arthur was alone in his room with the salve that Zahara had mention, his pants were off since he wanted to get this started right away. So taking enough from the bottle he began to apply it where it felt really sore, after taking some time doing this Arthur removed all of his clothing then put on another pair of pants before slipping into bed and going off to reverie.

Wasn't that rich? She actually thanked her...oh the day was getting exponentially worse. Yes, good old home sweet home, something always had to be wrong. Though yes, by the time Malik came back she was pacing a little bit back and forth, but brought it to a stop. "Goodie." Her usual reaction to food anyway so it didn't seem out of the ordinary and hey she was doing her best to not appear upset. And that merely meant her taking the plate from him and settling down on the bed with it, picking lightly. No, she wasn't going to say anything, just come off oblivious.

"I know your upset and I got a pretty good idea why. don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."
He moved over to her, and gently straightened out the silver and red strands. rubbing her shoulders some.
"Don't worry about anything. I have it under control and it'll be fine."
Then downstairs, casually and idly and further downstairs to where Zahara was undoubtably waiting.
"So...what little problem do you think your going to make me answer for this time, Zahara?"
"So. How much soup you think this is gunna make? Moonstone has been rather...well...about as close to unmoving as a living thing can get, so I'd be more than willing to take something over to him before he starves or dehydrates himself."
A small purr for Aella.
"That is if you think there will be enough to spare. after all there's a lot of people to feed in that place nowadays, ain't there."

She was more or less ignoring what he was saying, having picked a point at the wall and was staring at it. If she reacted, she'd be upset, and that would only make matters worse. She was going to feel bad enough about all that was going to unfold, seeing as she knew how things would go. It was best just to disconnect herself from it. Though admitedly she almost said something at he played with her hair a moment, straightening out streaks and giving a further affectionate touch as well as offered words for her comfort. They weren't comforting. And didn't even look to him as he left because again she'd put herself somewhere neither of the two drow wanted her to be. Once knowing he was gone, she merely shook her head. "Things won't be fine..." Thus setting her plate aside for the moment...she'd lost her appetite at the moment.

"I dunno. We have a lot of meat here, I'd say we had enough to feed the manor three times over." She smiled. "I am sure there would be more than enough to take to you're brother."
She looked down at her feet while she walked. "How is he doing, by the way? He didn't even hold a funeral for his nurse friend."

Jude turned to gid fellow wolf kin but then did a little double take, turning back roughly and punching Roarke squarly in the jaw. He sighed with pleasyure as Raorke's head whipped back for a moment. "Thank you, I needed that, Otosan."

Roarke just laughed and waved Jude to his siblings, rubbing at his jaw.
When Jude was far enpugh away, he mumbled to himself. "Hmm. Didn't expect him to hit that hard."

Onyx shrugged.
"He's taking it hard. and Vah don't have funerals, at least not like you. We bury the dead...but we do not have funerals to show that we think they are gone. because they are not. Our friends and ancestors still guide us, still are with us. We even have ceremonies and rituals to talk to them again. though I'm not sure if Moonstone has the power to perform them. He did inherit father's shamanic power...but I don't know if it is strong enough for that."

The drow was sitting with her legs crossed in the stands just outside the arena, waiting. Malik entered and she smiled slightly. "Interesting words, Malik. This time though, there is no think. I'm going to make you answer for what you've done." Zahara wasn't stupid, she knew better than to waste time mincing words and letting Malik get the advantage. Truth be told Malik could have her on the ground in a matter of seconds and she knew it. Therefore as she spoke she jumped into the arena and two runic circles appeared, one beneath her own feet and one beneath Malik's. Smiling sweetly she scribed a rope rune quickly into the air and then jerked her hands back just like Sevilin had showed her how to do. Malik would be jerked by an invisible leash and slammed against the wall where she then held him using the runes. Sure she knew he knew runes too, but he didn't have the training she did. To use them would be to leave himself nearly helpless before her and he wasn't that stupid. Maintaining the hold, she walked towards Malik and shook her head. "How do you like being defenseless Malik? How do you like having no control over what happens to you?" But she wasn't done yet. She held her position and then called out "Spectral chains!" Thus chains came out of nowhere and clamped around Malik's wrists and ankles keeping him bound to the wall even if she let go of the 'rope.' "But before we go any further, I'll give you a chance to defend yourself. You have been accused of aiding in the rape of Galesen Coldiron also known as Arthur Murdock. How do you plead Malik D'vinn?"

Malik did indeed notice her use of runes, adn her chainings him. his eyes only looked at her in mild amusement.
"Really now. this is all you got to think that you will make me suffer anything?"
A smirk.
"Guilty. He's expendable, and I needed someone to breed with Laudi. And don't patronize me about things I do that are the result of things that you weren't here to see."
A runic circle formed underneath his feet and hers in green.
"You are a student yet. and I have all of the knowledge of Sevilin."
His fingers wrote a rune, and a battering ram of force hit her midsection and threw her back, before the circles faded and he shadowsteped out of her chains, wiping blood from his nose, and spitting some on the ground.
"You weren't there when he gave her that look. you weren't there when he dragged to the surface an emotional scar that I've been working for twenty years to try and help her get through. Twenty years of trying to help her get over her fear of other surface elves, to get her past as best I could her self conciousness, nearly shattered in a moment by that boy."
Again wiping blood from his nose.
"an emotional scar, for the one he brought back to my wife. and eye, for an eye. Anything else you want to question me on, Zahara?"

She did crash against the ground but picked herself up and rolled her shoulders lightly. That was going to bruise. She ran a hand through her hair and shrugged then clapped lightly. "Very nice Malik. I do believe that's a level three rune. Careful though, you may have the knowledge but you don't have the experience and using a high level rune to start out is not a good idea." She shook off what he'd done to her though it had hurt and crossed her arms. "So you think that because he upset Piper it justifies what you did? Wrong." She paused a moment and stepped to the side but didn't attack again. "While I commend how much you care, it's not okay. Did she die Malik? No. Do you realize that the very thing you just brought up is the same exact thing you did to Sevilin? Oh yes, you brought back a fear that was very real in his mind. You forced him into something he didn't want and hated himself for doing. You knew he hated women and hated what had happened to him in the past more than anything in the world. Don't play with me Malik, you and I both know what Sevilin has been through. Yet you set him up for the same blow that Piper took. Where is that different from what Arthur did to Piper? Answer me that." Thus she attacked, using the rope rune to slam him against the wall then let him fall to the ground before dragging him along the ground before slamming him back into the wall though she didn't do it headfirst. "And by your own rules, someoen should exact vengeance for that."
