Niyana turned back to look at the young girl. "Yup I am your mother. I have very glad to see you nice and well Aras." She smiled and laughed warmly as the girl moved to check out her brother's vase. She smiled and moved her hand down to gentlly pick up her daughter and brought her to her chest to embrace her in a warm gentle hug. "You are quite the explore arn't you?" She laughed again and kissed the top of her daughter's head before placing her back onto the table.
Ruran was deep within his vase he was still thinking whether or not to come out when he heard the soft voice of what must be a sister. His hand tighten on his pants. He was surrounded by women who would cause nothing but trouble. He could tell this already...though he didn't know it. He just knew he did not like the soft voices.

Aras giggled and snuggled warmly into her mother's chest. She liked being treated like this, it made her feel warm and loved - not that she knew anything else.
She giggled again and looked up at her mother's question. "It's fun to explore!" she announced proudly, giggling yet again when Niyana kissed her on the head.
When she was set on the table, she sat down and looked at the surface upon which she had been placed. She felt it with her hands, then closed the fingers of one hand to make a fist and knocked on it.
"Hard," she giggled - and then she looked around to see if any of her other siblings would be joining her.
It was only at this point that the fourth and final vase began to slow in its reaction - and then the reaction stopped altogether, so suddenly it made a shloomp sound.
But the vase itself, unlike the other three, was not wobbling, or rocking, or moving at all. It was completely and perfectly still.

Feeling her child snuggle back and hearing her laugh sealed the deal finally in Niyana's heart. She would be a great mother. She could not love her children.
"Yes it is hard. Its wood...from a tree." She smiled and looked over at her other son's vase and moved over to gently stroke the side of the vase. "Will you be joining us Ruque dear?" She asked warmly.
Kanis' vase stopped wobbling and out of the top of the vase a small cyan haired head popped out. She moved to stand on the brim of her vase and seeing the dragon plushie around her vase jumped down onto it. She laughed as she started to wrestle it down.
There was no way she was going to let the dragon harm her family. And she would not admit that her jump had really been a fall out of her vase.

Aras giggled, watching her sister's antics, and she jumped to her feet and ran to the edge of the table, then jumped down, landing on her feet but falling to her hands and knees; and then she let out a fierce roar and ran to pounce on Kanis.
"I'll help you!" she squealed, tickling her sister on the sides.
There were a few small scuffling sounds from inside the mouth of Ruque's vase, and then silence fell once more. After a few seconds, a small voice echoed out, "I think I'm stuck ..."

Niyana laughed loudly at her two daughters and then again at her poor son. "Oh no that is not good...Well maybe if we tip the vase alittle...where are you stuck?" She tried not to laugh too hard at the situation.
She gently started to tip the vase to allow gravity to stop pulling down on Ruque and try to bring him back into the vase.
Kanis cried out in shocked and then started to laugh loudly, "No....that is not...haha....helping...hehe...stop the dragon will win!" she laughed and tried to wriggle out from her sister's tickling fingers.
Ruran growled to himself and punched the bottom of his vase. He was starting to feel a powerful emotion growing within him. He sighed and tried to ignore the loud cries from his sisters.

Aras giggled and sat on Kanis's legs, though she was too light to hurt them.
"I didn't say I was helping you!" she giggled mischievously, working her fingers more vigorously into her sister's side. "Surrender!"
Her eyes shone brightly despite the cave's dim light. She was having so much fun already!
Inside Ruque's vase the shuffling continued, more strongly now than it had been before. The vase started wriggling a bit, leaning more and more over in Niyana's hands, so that the mouth drew closer and closer to the ground as the little surprise inside of it moved towards it.

Kanis shook her head "Never!" she cried out and moved to start to tickle her sister her fingers moving to her sister's side working them deep and quickly. "You will yield first!"
Niyana looked over at the girls and sighed she would have to sperate them after she helped Ruque out. She moved her hand to the mouth of the vase. "I think your getting there Ruque dear...come on just keep wiggling." she still wanted to laugh at her poor trapped son.

Aras squealed and tried to slap her sister's finger's away, but she missed and Kanis's fingers found their way to her own ribs. She laughed and giggled and tried to squirm away, dropping to the floor and rolling to the side so that she could scramble to her feet again and made a dash for the safety of the nearest vase - which happened to be Ruran's.
"Hide me!" she laughed as she crawled into the mouth of his vase, trying to escape Kanis's fingers.
The shuffling continued, barely audible now over the sounds of the playful girls, until the mouth of the vase lowered carefully to the ground. Finally there was a visible sign of movement within the vase, a slight motion at the mouth ... and then a little sandaled foot appeared ... and then another ...
It looked like Ruque was coming out backwards.
"Am I almost there, Mama?" he called out, his voice echoing in the empty depths of his vase.

Niyana had to bite her lip to keep from laughing too hard at her poor breech son. "Your doing great Ruque...just a bit father now...you have almost got it!" she tried to sound encouraging. She smiled seeing the little sandaled feet. "You can do it." she wanted to pull and help him but she did not want to hurt him so she would have to let him do it on his own.
Kanis laughed and moved to all fours as her sister made a brake for it. She jumped up to her feet and made a run after her. The dragon would have to wait to be slain.
She laughed, "Nothing is going to hide you now!" she moved to the mouth of the vase.
Ruran turned hearing someone move into his vase. He sighed knowing it was one of the girls, "Please get out of my vase...I don't want to play with you." he said and stood up in the vase.
He knew he would have to come out now just incase he got to big like it sounded like his brother was. Why wasn't his father here? Though of course it was not his job to watch the children.

Aras blinked and stopped in her tracks at her brother's harsh words. That wasn't nice at all! In fact, it was downright mean! She was silent for a moment as she tried to think about how to react. A part of her was very hurt, and wanted to cry - but another part of her, the bigger part of her, was angry. He had no reason to be mean, no reason at all!
She turned around and held one hand up to Kanis, then beckoned for her to lean close so that she could whisper in her ear:
"Let's make him have fun with us!"
And then she leaned back and looked into Kanis's eyes, nodding half-seriously and then pointing over her shoulder into the vase.
Ruque was encouraged by his mother's support, and he wiggled further out of the vase. Cyan pants the colour of Kanis's hair was the next thing to appear - and then a wiggling bottom ... and then a blue cloak ... and then hair the same golden blond as Niyana's - though when he turned around and looked up at her, his eyes were as green as Celebor's, and had the same look in them.
For a moment he just sat and looked up at Niyana, taking in her appearance and blinking curiously; but then he giggled and reached his hands up to her.
"I did it!" he announced proudly.

Niyana smiled warmly as she watched her son emerging form the vase. He really was a sweet little thing. And when he turned to look at her she laughed warmly and brought him close for a warm but gentle hug. "Yes you did! You did a wonderful job Ruque my little one." Those strong eyes looking up at her so and his hands reaching pentrated deep into her heart. He was as handsome as his father only far more sweet and innocent.
She kissed the top of his head catching the movement of her girls around thier other brother's vase.
Kanis raised a brow and leaned in. "Why? It is not noble to force someone is it?" She whispered back and looked into the vase. "Brother you might as well come out....I don't think you want us comming in." She called into the vase.
Ruran sighed. He had tried to be nice. but really all he wanted was to be left alone for a wail. He did not want to come out and see the world just yet or his mother for that matter. He knew she was strong but still she was not like thier father....

Ruque closed his eyes and hugged his mom right back, though his arms were too short to hug all the way around her and he just sort of pressed his hands against her collarbones and snuggled against her chest. He felt warm and safe in her arms, and when she kissed the top of his head he giggled a bit and looked up at her, his bright eyes shining.
"I love you, Mama," he told her softly, smiling widely, wiggling his toes in his sandals.
Aras frowned at Kanis. "Well maybe it isn't noble but he's being rude."
Still, she listened to her sister's advice and didn't go any further into Ruran's vase, instead stepping outside of it to give Ruran the space that he seemed to want. But she sat down just to one side of the mouth of the vase, crossing her legs and folding her arms and pouting a bit. She was so going to get him when he came out ...

Niyana laughed and smiled still holding her little boy, "I love you too Ruque." she smiled and stroked his hair, "Your so handsome and polite too." she smiled warmly at him.
Kanis sighed her hand moving to her hip. "Well brother it is out or in. I don't think I can hold our sister back for long." In fact she was shocked she had at all. "Besides I am sure we all want to see you."
She smiled into the darkness. She was trying to be nice to both of them. She didn't want to be belittling to any of her siblings. But she did not think a fight would be the best thing right now.
Ruran sighed, "Tell her to get away from the entrance and keep her hands to herself and I will." He did not try to sound rude he was just being mater of factly.

Ruque giggled up at Niyana, resting his head against her chest and smiling happily. He was comfortable where he was, and truth be told he didn't really want to be put down. He wanted to stay where he was.
But he couldn't help but pay attention to his sisters' argument.
"What are they arguing about, Mama?" he asked, turning his green eyes up to his mother's face once more.
Aras's teal eyes blazed with indignation, and she remained where she was, refusing to budge even just the slightest.
"I'm not moving," she said stubbornly, "but I won't touch him when he comes out."
After all, as long as she wasn't inside his vase it wasn't his space, and she could sit wherever she wanted to.

Niyana sighed, "I don't know..shall we go find out?" She carried Ruque over to the brown vase and his two sisters
"Alright what is going on you three?"
Kanis sighed and looked up. "Sister is bugging brother becuase he wont come out and he is being rude to her." She looked at her sister, "And now she says she will not move. So he wont come out."
Ruran rolled his eyes and stayed at the back of the vase. He could hear the voice of his mother. She was nothing but a temptress and her only good was coaxing his father into bed and forgetting about what really mattered.
