Welcome to Gaia! ::

He kept his son in his hold.

"Everything will be fine. But right now, we'll need to keep this place in order for when she gets back. and Dad will be able to find mom no matter where she goes."

As long as that stitching held out in that cloak.

"I may not be able to go with her, but she's not going alone, alright. and you and I will make sure that this house is good and ready for her to come back to."

Setting his son down, and looking to Sevilin.

"How's your progress been?"

His face showed nothing. no emotion at all.

Zahara watched the scene remembering what it had been like to leave Zykariel behind when she'd been thrown out. Lucky for her she'd still gotten moments to see her son. Piper wouldn't get that and her future hung in the air unsteady. That didn't excuse Malik's behavior in her mind though and she could have cheerfully thrown a dagger through him. Walking over she scooped the child up off the floor and dearmored him methodically, setting it on the floor next tot he chair. He didn't need that right now, then cuddled him tightly, rocking him in her lap and rubbing his back. "It's okay to cry, Malikhai." And if Malik said something, gods help her she was going to kill him.

Zykariel was feeding off the tension and upset becuase his friend was upset. He didn't want Miss Piper to go either and it was hard watching. He knew what it was like to have a Mommy leave. But he walked over to her and patted Malikhai's arm.

Zahara responded by scooting over slightly and patting the spot next to her for Zykariel to climb up. If the nursery hadn't currently been overtaken she would have taken the boys out. Sadly she'd have to settle for sending a serf for their toys because neither of them were leaving her sight.

Of course he wasn't one to protest, he needed that close contact right now. In no way was he a happy child, and his head was hurting as well. Partially from feeling the unease in his parents and from broadcasting his own. And since daddy wasn't in the mood to give any comfort out right now he was quite ready to give what was offered. Hell he would even take Sevilin at this point. Thus cuddling up to her he laid his head against her shoulder, sniffling and crying some. This was not fair!

And apparently daddy had different ideas about his armor and if he could form coherent words at the moment he would of agreed with his father on the subject. But at this point he assumed that it would get back on him eventually, if anything to make daddy happy on some level. Glassy silvery eyes turned to Malik and he gave a nod, though he didn't particularly feel like eating...

Sevilin shook his head. This was going to be impossible for Malik to work liek this. Though that was a subject that had to be breeched at the right time...after all, Sevilin did not feel like dying any time soon, he had his own son to not abandon. A look to Malik and a nod, standing up and turning a look to Zykariel. "Stay with your mother, alright?" Thus turning and starting off downstairs.

Malik went downstairs, showed sevilin about the fire illusion, and then what stones to walk on to avoid the floor illusion, and opened the vault. which was filled with books, weapons, armor, cloaks, and various other trinkets and such. all of them gave off magical power. some had a lot, most were in a big to medium range, and a few in the smaller range.

"small weapons are expendable. so is jewelry and most knick knacks by default. weapons, cloaks and armor we'll need to assess. see if thier power as armor or a weapon is more useful then thier energy drain would be. there's a clip on the righthand, should be everything inventoried."

Delaney didn't say anything to Moonstone but tried to focus her eyes to actually see him. By the time she had done so he had left. She swallowed the dried leaves with the help of the milk that Moonstone had left her and then stayed put for a bit to let her stomach settle.

The feline pushed some hair off her face and noticed that she had indeed hit her head. She then proceed to trying to heal her wound with some of her slight healing powers but failed. She didn't pay much mind to that and figure she couldn't cast the spell because of her current state.

She had never been extremely connected to her magic skills emotionally which was why she hadn't noticed the lack of magic or powers in her.

Delaney felt as if she should go back to her hotel room in order to leave the beds open to the patients so she left a note of thank you addressed to Moonstone and left.

Moonstone looked at his ahnds. They looked find, and he felt fine. He should be quite cabable of doing this. The lizard woman hissed at his delay.

"Well now, I can't do a diagnostic on her. Perhaps I am more exaughsted than I thought." It had been a long day. He looked at his brother with a shrug of appology.

The pop of her shoulder was dull in her ears, the pain of it chased away the sound. It felt like it had been crushed. In a state of shoke, he couldn't move with this rabid wolf standing over, drooling in her face. At the point, the crowd had picked up shovels and ptichforks, and were moving in on the wolf. They were not about to stand around and let some innocent get mauled to death.

Deidrich hopped up as he was able, falling across the horse's rump on his stomach so that his nails wouldn't dig into the creature. He was as considerate as he could be, and as trusting with the winy horse's abilities.

Toharu stuck close to Zahara's neck, petting when she felt the drow was getting particularily upset. She had gotten close to her, even if she still wasn't talking beyond yes or no. She couldn't say she much understood what was going on, she was pretty much a child herself. Piper was leaving, the child had been in armor, the adults are angry.

Piper gave a nod and a kick to Serino...though in her opinion the speed of the travel, that in a blink of an eye they were outside the manor that Meilikki resided in, she found it a burden this time. Sliding down off of Serino, she made sure Deidrick got down okay and then she turned to the manor.

"Piper!" Duely flinging herself into the elf and hugging her tightly.

"Keely..." She hugged the girl back...it was nice to see her. After all, she had been gone for quite a while now. Though then she blinked and pushed the girl gently away. "Keely...I know that you enjoy being here, but we really need you at home...it's urgent."

"Urgent?" She blinked and gave a worried look then one to Serino and back to Piper. "Would you tell Meilikki I said goodbye then?" Asking as Piper had ushered her over to Serino.

"Of course I will...now Serino will take you back. Take good care of the children alright?" The familiar face of Keely perhaps could ebb her own son somewhat...thus helping Keely onto the horse, the two promptly disappearing and Piper made her way inside the manor. "Alright Deidrick, lead the way."

Keely, though saddened she didn't get to say goodbye to Meilikki, was glad to be home. Earthquakes and chaos were not fun at all. Serino had poofed inside the fortress and she slid off the steed, giving him a pet. She knew abotu Piper, had overheard Meilikki talking about it. "Take care of Piper you, or it's a jar for you." Watching him disappear again and promptly taking to asking questions whose's answers would lead her to the dinning room and thus the children. "Zykariel, Malikhai, I'm back."

Said children were eating pudding, though sulkingly so. Malikhai was more of playing in his but he was eating an occassional spoonful. Couldn't have daddy mad at him for not eating anything like he was supposed to. Though Keely's familiar voice did draw his attention and Zahara got a tug. "Keely is back..." It should of been more enthusiastic.
