Callista nuzzled his chest, wrapping her arms around him in her best attempt to comfort him and herself. "Don't worry about it now. I was silly for bringing it up." She bit her lip, seeing the memories as he did. She would keep her secret for now.

"I'm sorry," he said softly. "The others of my blood...Father and his were not so bad, aside from Saber and even he was not as frightening as my aunts and cousins...My brother Kar, always did is best to keep me away from them, told me they were dangerous, I've no doubt, they were..." He sighed, "I know I was never a proper drow, but I fear what my children may become..."

She reached for his hoof. "The only darkness in you is darkness that is supposed to be there. Like the stuff that every Carpathian has. Nothing out of the ordinary."

"The shadows remain," he said softly. "Even in the presence of light..."

"They never really go away, this is true...but you never have to worry about them overtaking you. You have me. Nothing can drag you into darkness now."
