"Fifteen minutes, maybe a half hour. He seemed to think it was quite important to have a talk with Malik for some reason." He shrugged and gave a sigh, looking over to her again. "So..." He hated awkward silences, this was sad. "Did you unpack everything that I brought from home or is it still all packed up...I know all of our stuff together isn't going to fit in that room without some of it having to be on the floor and such. They get a cot in there when you checked?"

She was curious but figured Sevilin knew about as much as she did and she wasn't going to push for more answers that he probably didn't have. Perhaps she'd gently question her son later though. "I haven't had a chance to do anything more than throw the stuff in there and a bit of rooting through when I was looking for things. It's all sitting in the corner waiting for the master of organization to make sure everything has it's place. You can go do that now if you like." She tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear and chuckled, "I stole one from one of the humans so we have one. Though I suspect Zykariel will want to sleep in the bed."

Master of organization...she was referring to him wasn't she? Of course she was. But he merely shook his head lightly, it wasn't an insult so it didn't bother him. He was fond of organization. At least he knew he would have something to do later. "You two can have the bed, I'll take refuge from you and our son's rolling in the comfort of the cot."

Wait, he wasn't going to be sleeping in the bed with her? "Oh...well you know there's plenty of room in the bed. We have a bigger one than we do at home. Almost enough room for Zykariel to roll three or four times without even touching you. But if you want the cot, you're welcome to it." He wasn't still angry with her was he?

"I fear being rolled over in the middle of the night by you two in combination. He rolls just like you do, ends up with his feet on his pillow sometimes." A little shrug. "I haven't been to the room yet anyway, haven't assessed anything. Who knows, Zykariel may assert his independence and want the cot all for himself. You know how it comes and goes with the boy."

She nodded, "That's true. He randomly decides to do that though I've never really understood why." She gathered up the cards and set them down then stood up and brushed off her skirt. "Well then, I'll leave you to that and I'll go finish up bottling what I got out in the Underdark and adding it to the stores." Thus she nodded to Sevilin and left the room. She had chainmail to commission too.

"sacred candles can have many effects. depending on who blessed them and why. you just let it burn while they're in the room. it doesn't matter whom else is in there, because the prayer you burn will be specific for them."
picking up the two silver and glancing at him. well fine then. placate the boy the first time, and hope the second time works. so he got up, and walked over to the chest, and dug around until he found the two crimson candles, and handed them over, and took the little papers, and wrote down what was needed on them and handed them over.
"there you go."

Zykariel took the candles and gazed at them for a moment. "These look a lot like the candles Mommy burned at dinner the other night. They made Daddy act funny." But he took the papers and tucked them carefully into his pocket. "Okay. Thank you Mr. Malik, I really hope this works. But we only use one right now, right?" He nodded and walked to the door of the study and headed back upstairs.
He found Keely and Malikhai in the kitchen and plopped down at the table with them setting the candles carefully on the table. "See what Mr. Malik gave me? He said it would help me get what I want. But I'm gonna need your help Keely."

Sevilin gave a shake of his head when she left and then an odd blink as his son went toddling by on into the dinning room...things were just too odd and stressful today weren't they? Though his child didn't seem too worse for wear or mentally scarred, so he assumed Malik had done nothing horrid to his child.
Keely looked up from her sandwich, broke half off and held it out to Zykariel if he was hungry as well. Had to just feed those kids didn't she? "Ooh he gave you candles." She supposed those were for something that Malik told him to do that would help whatever his little problem was. "You need my help? Alright, what do you need my help with?"

He took the sandwich with a grin and took a large bite of it. "I'm not s'posed to play with fire. Daddy frowns on that since I might hurt myself and burn stuff down or something like that. So I need you to light these for me when they're both in the room and I tell you too. We gotta burn these pieces of paper too and keep them from blowing the candles out." Rubbing at his eyes for a moment and sniffling. "But he still didn't tell me why..."

Malik came out of his study and sat down near sevilin and looked at him for a moment.
"you, Zahara and I need to have a talk about your son, if you don't mind."
tossing over the two silver Zykariel had paid him for the candles.

"Well that's a good thing to remember that you're not supposed to play with fire. Fire can be very very dangerous." But a listen to her apparent instructions. "Oh, alright. I'll make sure to do that for you, alright?" Reaching over and patting the boy's hair. "Sometimes no one knows why some things are the way they are." Best she could do not really knowing the problem. Then a look to Malikhai making sure he was finishing his food.
A look over to Malik as he sat down and he caught the two round disks....was Malik paying him to sit in a room and talk about certain things? A look to the piecies and then a look to Malik raising an eyebrow at him. "Didn't you,me and Zahara already have a talk about my son once already?" Well...they had.

"this one is a little more...delicate. it involves what your son wanted to talk to me about, and what he just insisted paying me those two silver for."
that should get his attention right there.

Oh great...his son went running to Malik about something else...Sevilin could not win this parenting thing now could he? It was irritating. "Last time we dragged her into a conversation of delicate matters, she decided to go feral on both of us. How about you and I talk and then we'll see about inviting her into the conversation?"

"alright. your son wants to make you and zahara love each other like myself and piper love eachother to complete his idea of a good family. he purchased some blessed candles from me that will help do that job. we both know that magic won't work, but divine influence may. I doubt it. but that's the plan."
A lean forward a bit.
"Personally, I think he's scared to death you and Zahara are going to have one fight somewhere somehow and then his little family is going to get torn apart by it. he was willing to pay all the steel he had and go into debt to make you and Zahara act more like myself and piper."
