Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was a stupid idea to remove that dirk. So the dirk never left the center of her palm. It took some time, a bit of wrestling with Fin, beacuse he didn't want to give it to her as much as she didn't want to get it from him.

Eventualy, and impaled and bloody hand extended itself towrads Piper. "Better take it. I have myself convinced that your a Malboro right now."

Okay, that didn't seem right. "How come he doesn't know?" That was slightly confusing to him since he knew who both his parents were and Malikhai knew who his were as well. Lharika knew her parents too. He'd yet to meet any other little elves but he was certain they knew at least who their parents were. Of course his Mommy had only just become his real Mommy so maybe that's what he meant. "But you said he was surprised..." Frowning he thought it through and then remembered what Malik had said. "Oh...then I guess it wasn't a good surprise for him, was it?" His smile dropped off and he went silently contemplative for a few moments before looking back up. "Are you here to tell him and make up with him then?"

Meilikki felt a warm hand over her mouth just before the world became suddenly distant and haunting. The sound of her heart beating was not echoing from inside her chest.

"Hello My Love. I have come to make you and I stay together for ever. Love is the connection of souls through the beating of the heart; so I take yours and make it mine." The melodic voice sounded less juvenile than it had in the past, but the warmth it brought Meilikki's emotions remained just the same.

"We will be together, always." He allowed the cold body to fall to the ground, a pool of cooling blood soiled the area about her broken frame. A single wound marked her chest. Anyone who viewed the body knew without question that she was dead.

Leaf sat, sighed. "Embrassing." Then looking at the dirk in her palm.

A quick yank and spirt of blood and it was out. "Please. I wish to disperes the news on our long in waiting poeple." A geniun smile this time. "In a few years time, we will finaly be able to travel back to the sruface."

This moment, she'd been waiting for it for some time. Her eyes widened, but she said nothing. It didn't matter, she'd asked for this. It was a dying wish of sorts.

Ice blue eyes became sightless once more, glazed over with death.

The three headed dog trembled in a corner, forbiden to come to her air should soemtihng like this happen.

Piper gave a smile back. "I'm sure the surface will be much appreciated by you all." Her? Surface elf yes, but the underdark was her home now and always would be. But back onto Serino...and since they had been placed now, and knew landmarks, it was a simple effort for the creature to get them back in an hour tops, using his wind abilities to more or less teleport from location to location and finally they were in front of Meilikki's again. Sliding off the horse she tiredly walked into the building. "Meilikii! We're back!" Though her ears twitched at the quiet that greeted her ears. "Somethings...not right." A look back to Leaf and Fin before she took to exploring,heading to Meilikki's room...and duely giving a gasp and covering her mouth with her hand in common shock gesture. "Oh gods...Meilikki..." And now they had new problems...

The child was affectionate, that was for sure. But oh the little tidbits of information that he got were just something too good to pass up. To think, Sevilin was married to that woman...or there was something about that woman...he had to snoop more in that direction. But that was something you didn't ask a child.

Taking hold of the child, he held him under his arms and out in front of himself, looking him over. He was a little thing, looked like he hadn't been put through anything horrid and such yet. Hm, it was very interesting. "Perhaps," all he said to the child's questions. "But remember, don't tell it's our secret."

"Put him down now, Khaiver." He was not happy at all, and the hand on his dagger showed that as well as the death look in his eyes for the other drow. Damn it, he should of known that child would of woken and not stayed put either. Not a good thing that his son had been around Khaiver for who knew how long.

Zykariel blinked for a moment and shook his head. "I'm not dirty, I already had a bath." That's the gesture his father used when he was all dirty from playing outside. He kicked his feet slightly and reached out trying to lock his arms around the other drow's neck. "I won't tell, I promise." A beat of silence. "Not even Malikhai?" He wanted to tell his best friend that he had a grandpa just like Kieran. Khai would be so happy for him, too.

His ears twitched a moment later and he glanced back. "Daddy!" Then he frowned and shook his head. "Don't be mad Daddy. I was just talking to him. Besides, he's really nice and he doesn't want you to be mad at him anymore." He didn't like that look in his father's eyes either.

Zahara rolled over and reached out searching for a warm body next to her. She found cool sheets and an empty bed. Yawning she glanced around and sighed. Those boys were dark and early risers. Thankfully she'd been allowed to reverie a little longer for some reason. Hopping out of bed she quickly dressed and dragged a brush through her hair then made her way downstairs. And stopped horrified at the scene she beheld. "Kariel..." Oh this was very, very bad. She lightly rested a hand on Sevilin's arm to keep him from doing anything rash and frightening thier son. He already looked unhappy and she could only guess as to why.

The door closed, being pushed by the person who stood behind it, the person who as now revealing herself. She wore a dark hood over her head. Long black hair spilled out from inside it.

"She HAD wanted to say goodbye to you. But not many of us are fortunate enough to choose the time of our deaths."

PIper still sat there on the floor, more or less processing. To think she had been glad that things were going to go well and she'd go home and things would all just be fine...but she should of known better, this was the underdark. Though at the door and voice, the rather filty and exhausted elf turned her eyes up, a stoic look and voice to her. "And you would be?"

"Would you rather he be treated in positive or negative manner for those eyes of his?" Oh so the wench wanted to play the game as well did she? Well then, welcome to the game wretched woman. Eyes sliding back to Sevilin. "Come now, you're upsetting the boy."

Sevilin just glared at Khaiver before turning a look on Zykariel, softening his look to the boy. "He's done things wrong before today...things that you can't fix by saying you're sorry." And odd look to Zahara before frowning lightly. "Zahara...don't..."
