"It won't be long." He was well aware what was at stake now, far more aware than he had been before. His lack of knowledge of certain things was partially to blame for his actions of late. Watching the woman who had come to mean so much and so little all at the same time, he turned his face away in a silent dismissal. If she was going to be in the House of D'vinn disguised as a servant then she was going to be put to work. He'd think about her request and decide what to do.

"Good. Then I look forward to hearing from you soon."
She knew that dismissal gesture, and she slipped from the room...and headed downstairs to the lower basements. in all the commotion, she wasn't about to pass up the opportunity to see Malik's personal staff...or at least she hoped was Malik's personal staff, or she was about to piss off someone. their informant needed to be silenced, and another one found. this one obviously couldn't be trusted enough to deal with only the Spurned and the Dead.

"Long as everyone does what needs doing." Thusly she took herself downstairs to Malik's personal study wtih a rag in hand. Granted it hadn't been touched since they left and anyone would be surprised on how much dust acclimated in such places. Opening the door, she was quick to make sure it was closed and locked behind her...Malik was all too particular about his study and he yelled at even her for things that were wrong in it.

A flash of light in the basement portal meant that they were home, herd of children being ushered first through before she and Malik followed, Tyyrael following after him. She blinked a few times, letting her eyes adjust to the light difference once more that occured between worlds. "Finally...always good to be home. Alright children, upstairs." Ushering them thus onward and upward.
Tyyrael looked around, not that there was much to see as his eyes weren't as quickly adjusting and well, the area they were in didn't make much for anything to look at anyway now did it? Just a room with a portal and packing things as well for things shipped between.

Malik came through, pushign his hood back and take a breath with a slight grin.
"Yes. air free of pollen, leaves, feathers...and such other irritants."
before plucking Dhairiss from his wife, and glancing at Tyyrael.
"Everyone upstairs, Malikhai, fetch Sevilin and Zykariel...Piper...you need to see Zahara. then I have something to show you and my youngest son."
Deed was done, she was sitting in thier headquarters, waiting for word from Zykariel. and getting rather impatient and concerned he wasn't going to get back with her, that he'd just placated her. they had a new informant, the other was taken care of...that body taken with her so no one would know whom it was, then properly disposed of.

Galesen quickly turned to Malik and cleared his throat to catch his attention as he realized where everything was going too with Tyyrael being with them. "Malik I think...it would be a lot better if i talked to him first, that way if things don't go too well with Master Tyyrael being here," A pause as he looked to the man. "No offense." He turned back to Malik with a small nervous smile. "At least I can talk to him before and see what he has to say since he is not totally upset, is that alright?" Though of course he grabbed his bags and made his way to the door, waiting to see what Malik was going to say before he disappeared.

He nuzzled at his father, not quite sure if liked all this business of going back and forth places. He knew they were home and that was fun but it was still a tad of a rough transition.
Malikhai gave a whine. "We JUST got home dad..." He was rubbing at his eyes, as the tiny almost unnoticible gold fleck in them were not happy from the light change and thus were irritating him.
"You're always on the go, do you know that? Let the girls at least see their parents and brothers before you start into whatever wheels are turning in your head, A'mael. You're not going to get much of anywhere until you do." Getting them all upstairs before turning her attention back to the menfolk.
All Tyyrael did was smile lightly, nod to looks as his eyes held a slight glow to them, but was otherwise politely watching. Though he did allow himself a chuckle to Galesen's words. "None taken, I know perfectly well I'm the object of disdain." Turning that look to Malik, "No worries for you either I'll not start an uproar in your house."

"No, you'll wait. if anything you'll want him there to vouch for you on the surface, Galesen. not to mention you have one angry, scorned brigade woman to deal with."
grinning lightly, and motion to tyyrael to follow.
"Welcome to the underdark, I do hope the stay isn't unpleasent. and you'll have to try some of our own delicacies while your here."

"Ha, ha, ha Malik, thank you for pointing that out." A small sigh before he took his bags and went upstairs with the others, there he got a servant to take his bags to an empty room where he would pick them up later when he was to return to his own place. When he was done with the servant he turned to Malik and Tyyrael and began walking with them, after all he needed to be around them when they met Sevilin.

It was already beginning... She slipped away upstairs with the girls though she was just as quickly dropped for their parents and she quietly headed for the room she'd been in before they'd left. It would be wise to head out now before her parents found out that she was back and hadn't returned home immediately. Malikhai wanted her to stay but she knew better. She'd wait a few minutes for everything to get really chaotic and be gone.
Zahara was being mauled. Which was a beautiful thing since she'd been craving the sound and smell of her girls for a while now. Hugs and kisses passed out in equal amounts to them both while she listened to Lyssie's high pitched shriek as she dramatized all of her adventures. Faate was being far more silent and when Lyssie finally took a breath, Zahara gently tapped her oldest daughter's nose. "He's downstairs."
She got what she wanted, gave her mother a big smile and headed downstairs to find her father. It didn't take long to locate him in the library though he wasn't reading. What was he doing? She wasn't sure but it didn't matter. Running up behind the couch, she threw her arms around his neck and plopped a big kiss on his cheek. "Did you miss me?"
He hadn't forgotten, but he hadn't decided what to do yet either. There was a lot going on and he knew from the shrieks and sounds that his sisters were home which meant his parents would be distracted. It was now or never. He had no real idea how to get back in touch with her but he assumed she'd know when he wanted to see her.

He was flipping through journal pages, but he wasn't really reading anything or absorbing anything...his mind was too wound up in the happenings of late. His brain was trying to make him forget the things that plagued him but at the same time it didn't want to forget. It wanted to remember and not turn oblivious eyes and actions back to everything. Guilty? Of course he felt guilty. But at the same time...he just didn't. And he thought that perhaps was worse. Thoughts were broken however at his daughter's sudden appearnce and he blinked a few times before turning a look over his shoulder to her, giving her his attention save for a smile he was missing. "Of course I missed you. Did you have...fun?" He wouldn't call it fun. Detaching her from him, he got up and let her come around the couch to latch to his arm as was normal for her, closing the journal with his other hand and giving a whistle as he started from the library. After all, he was still having that girl tag around with him where he went. Just in case.
Satisfied shrieks signaled that girls were happy and what not and she merely crossed her arms, seeing as Malik had taken Dhairiss from her and she had nothing to hold, however she did grab her oldest by the tunic and pulled him over, pressing a kiss to his cheek in comfort as he was clearly not happy about his eyes bothering him. "Give it a few moments dear, it'll pass." A point at her own eyes which had started and stopped the effect almost instantly from being so used to it by now. Turning a look to Tyyrael then with a smile and a nod. "Malik loves to cater to the company...and challenge them in his own ways as well. But yes, it may not be all green and such but it's home and it's loved."
Tyyrael did find this amusing, that was for sure and he gave another light chuckle to the couple. "I look forward to all of it. I may not be as big as an adventurer as Kieran but I am willing to give things a go sometimes."
Mykorian chose to park himself by a wall and sit there. After all, he wasn't sure what was going to be done with him but he had the idea that he wasn't allowed to run off either.

"I certainly hope so."
Before turning a serious look to his oldest.
"It's very important, Malikhai. Or I wouldn't ask you to, considering. oh...and before that lovely young lady of yours tries to scamper off into the dark, make sure she's at least got some protection."
then back to his guest.
"We'll have a room prepared for your stay, feel free to explore if you wish."
walking up the stairs, though noting his study door was closed with the little cleaning sign on it. he'd inspect that later.
She could sense something. that he wanted to see her...she'd made sure before she left to leave a trace, a hint of magic to know that. so she hoped this would work, putting her illusion back on and hoping that the gate spell that should take her to his room worked.

Children could be so oblivious at times and this one was no exception. She didn't see the lack of a smile or hear the hesitation in his voice. She was too busy being pleased to be back around him and giving her response to his question. Of course she had fun. There had been so much to see and so much to do and she still wasn't sure she'd done it all. Andal was another world to her and she loved it....but not as much as home. Walking with him, she reached out and took his hand, swinging their joined hands. "Where are we going?"
He saw her pop up a moment later and shook his head. "I don't have time to explain things but here's a book that will do the same. Practice what I taught you personally and read the rest in here. I think it's probably better if we don't see each other anymore. You understand."
She was already creeping down the stairs with her suitcase in hand and paint set carefully hidden away. There was no reason for her to stay, nothing for her to do and the family was quite busy with details of their own. "Bye Malikhai," she whispered to the empty hall and then slipped out into the waiting Underdark.

He let her swing their hands in her own affectionate ways, not really participating in the action but he never really had to begin with. "I'll have to see Malik. Better to get work out of the way so I can spend time with the family, hm?" Or at least that's what he was going with. Thusly he made his way to the little group, though stopped closer than he usually did....he wasn't going a certain distance near Tyyrael.
"Fine...I'll go get him." Pulling away from the comfort his mother was offering and trudged up the stairs, knocking first of Zykariel's door. "Zykariel!"
She was met with a part as he hopped out in front of her, followed by a growl and a few more yips. Yinn was apparently playing guard dog and Kaelin was on his radar. Going somewhere pretty?
