Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Perhaps," she whispered, only loud enough for Brut to hear, "It is for the best. Immortality is myth, far from the truth. I have lived too long, and been so alone for most of it. This kingdom does not need me to thrive...anymore." She slumped against him then, giving in to what ever he wanted. Death was welcomed.

The Kingdom no longer needed her. While this place had seen evil it would rise up once the kingdom saw of its pain. It was her that held it back. They relied on her to be glue to hold their world together. One being could only do that for so long. They relied on her so much that they remained in the dark. Her death would turned her...children, yes she could call them that,...into adults. She had always made the Kingdom their's, when in truth she was lying to herself. It was hers as long as she lived and it would remain an infant and servant because she was queen and title meant everything belonged to her. She had to let it go, to force it to rise up and function by itself. They had become to attached that simple closing herself off would not work. Death was her kingdoms final and needed action to survive, and she would do anything for them, even death.

"Ocarina...," she looked up to the sky for brief moment before letting her head roll back across her shoulders, "I wonder if something like me is allowed into heaven? I don't even know if you have been allowed there yourself, but I wish...to be with you, where ever it may be."

She has been so stubborn and blind to see what was around her, believing that her constant and same action was right. Too think that being reminded of what she was, her lineage, would give her the answer she needed and, unknown to her until now, desperately wanted.

To be able to leave and be where she wanted, to finally do something she desired, to be with the ones she loved that were no longer with her.

A small chuckled escape Relena's lips. "Power? I have to say that will, itself, is to be the true power. It has always pulled through were my power has not. Perhaps there is enough of my mother in me, the portion that remain celestial, to grant your desire. I suppose you will find out." She was so tired that she could not speak the words everyone heard, they came out mentally. Even so, they were a soft whisper, as her body became a rag doll in the young girl arms that held her.

Why did she not wish to fight him? He was a threat to the kingdom. She knew there was more to him just wanting to revive an old hate. He wanted more than that. Maybe it was the old face she remember, the warmth and smile of man she came into the village with first. Something made her want to believe that small portion of him was indeed what he showed before. Then again, maybe she had become so weak that she did not believe that one person in her kingdom could be downright evil.

Her skin suddenly became ashened and cold. Half-breeds were warm due to the human in them but she was like ice, very much like a vampire. Popping could be heard as cracks began to form all over her skin that could be seen. Slowly ash began to flow from the cracks like lose sand in the wind. Portions of her body were beginning to decenergrate into ash that flowed down into the ground below her.

Relena refused to drink that child's blood. Whether she desire to live or not, she would not harm the girl. Her body was far to weak and to restore could cause the child permant harm or death for that matter. She had been called many things, she did want to add child murder to that list.

Though as she listen to his words, a small spark ignited in her. "Brother-in-law" He wanted to bring this person back? He wanted to bring Morti back...

She turned away from the child and looked at Brut, "You desire to bring Morti back from the dead? He has done no harm to your family, his family. All he ever wanted was their happiness. Do not blame your misfortune on him, he is not to blame, his predescers are too." She had found her voice again, graved as it might be.

She looked at the girl then, "Queen? That was unexpected. Do you not have your loyalites to him? Why say those words to me?"

She pondered what Brut had said. He was so contradicting that it wasn't even funny. He said one things, and then another that made what he said false and confusing. It seemed like he was unsure of he was doing deep down inside. It was like he was doing what someone else wanted, believed in someone else belief, not his own.

To show Morti what he could have ruled over? Had Bruted wanted Morti to take her rule, King of the Vampire Kingdom? Was that what he saw as power and seeked? No, being a ruler held no power. "No Brut, Morti will be forever stronger than you. That strength is something that cannot be measured by a title. It cannot be seen or held. It is something you can never fantom. You think you can do better than him in every way, yet you do not see just how you are falling." She spoke aloud, for all to hear, yet for no one in particular.

She pushed the girl from her gently, climbing to her feet. She was slow as she did. Her body still turned to ash, now increasing with her efforts, but regardless she stood on her feet as she slowly followed behind him. Still, she spoke this directly to him, "You will....never....be strong, not in anyones eyes, especially Morti's...or mines, because if you can't in mine eyes then it will never been seen in another for I can see strength from the simplest of things. You may kill him, again, but he will not be forgotten."

"What you seek to destory will live on, but if you can realize that, then perhaps you can recieve that strength you seek of so desperately."


((Giving Brut an opening for emotions back to her and to understand bit better. So little physocially for ya. I can do a good counter agrument, that is for sure.

((Okay, time to move on...shall we?))


Relena merely followed behind him. She watched the girl next to her move in a frantic manner. She was worried for her safety, no, it was her own, if she herself ended up dead. "Worry not," said Relena, "I will not die just yet. Your master has been granted a small victory, for now, I shall fight to stay alive."

What as it that Brut seek? She was still slightly confused by it all, but she was sure that soon it would be come clear.


((Really, I am still a bit confused on the fine details, but I get the main part. Moving on will surely bring more answers.))
