Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yashweh, Chelsea, Saleh

Elliot jumped, looking at the king before slowly relaxing again and turning back to Tsume. "Well he did have a wife, and he did help raise her. I imagine she'd be more comfortable talking to him than strangers. I don't see her very often so I don't know her life inside the castle." he explained, gently stroking Yuki's hair. "Don't worry he's not going to hurt you. He's just startled." But Yuki looked more interested so the lynx shifted positions, letting Yuki get a better look.

Saleh looked over at the blond, trying to muddle through sleep into the waking world. "It's fine. I need to be awake. I can't sleep until this matter is settled." he felt around for his water pouch, uncapping it and moving to drank a drink, waiting and realizing it was empty. He stared at it before setting it back down and looking at the map, sighing and running a hand through his hair, looking around to see who else was awake, spotting the Nalaenirans and the fatter baby looking at him. He stared back before giving a small smile. "I remember when Yashweh was this tiny." And moved closer. "What brought twins? Elders? Did you adopt?" But they looked too much like their mothers.

Hearing Leo he shook his head. I cannot sleep."

Saleh listened, glancing at Oliver and giving a nod of thanks as he brought him the water, taking it and uncapping it. The fabric of the pouch was cool with the water inside, so that was good. Before he could place it to his lips Leo explained the pregnancy, making him stop, confusion and shock plastering to his face.

He stared at the two, studying their features carefully before staring down, attributing the parents features to the children. Leo's eyes, the round faces like Elliot, Leo's nose, messy hair from the lynx. He looked back up at the parents, giving a weak smile. "The elders, work in mysterious ways. What a blessing for you two, children of your own two blood." that didn't make sense to him, but who was he to question Elders?

"If it makes you feel any better, I wasn't aware Leo was pregnant for majority of his pregnancy because in my country men don't get pregnant." He chuckled. "Everyone knew except me. It is unnatural for our countries, you learn to just nod your head and accept what Falia gives you." Except maybe for shrunken clothes. He really liked those clothes.

Saleh chuckled, still off put by this information. "Congratulations on such a blessing from your elders. How truly generous." It was completely unnatural he wasn't sure how to take it. To keep himself from saying anything stupid he took a long gulp from the water pouch.

"Oh. Yes I believe I am somewhere. I hid them under the rugs so they would not blow away or be stolen." and stood, going to retrieve them before pausing, staring at Chelsea.

Elliot was biting back a laugh. "Should we wake her?" And watched Saleh try to find a way around her, circling her one way and going back around the other, unsure how to get the papers without waking her.

How did one wake a creature of her type? What even was she? The young king contemplated nudging her, but if she was something dangerous he'd rather not.

Yashweh, Chelsea, Saleh

Chelsea was startled indeed, feeling the ground leave her and waking up, struggling a bit before realizing who was lifting her. Oh, oh thank god she wasn't being kidnapped to be a slave. "I see no reason for that." But then realized everyone else was awake, face turning pink with embarrassment. She was supposed to be taking care of the babies here she was sleeping.

Saleh gave a thankful smile towards the wolf before lifting the rug and taking out the flat pieces of paper. He couldn't read the words on them, unfortunately, it wasn't in his language so he moved quickly to the kings and held them out politely.

Elliot placed Yuki on a pillow beside his brother before standing and taking the sheets to look at, ears raised at the strange symbols. "They must have written it in their handwriting." he had to admit, it looked elegant, "We'll need a Kaspian to read this to us. how stupid does that queen think me to sign something without reading it?"

"Well I wanted to make sure you weren't."

Silver eyes snapped up and Elliot narrowed his eyes at the nude Kaspian by the doorway.

"It's a rather warm day today." Guinevere said, walking in. Saleh's eyes averted instantly. "Why is it you always need to stick your nose in my business. I didn't really think they'd send for you." She sighed. "You make things no fun. Oh, look at the little worms, they were born. Cute things. Pudgy."

Yashweh, Chelsea, Saleh

Chelsea moved to the kids quickly, pulling them into her arms and backing away, ears alert and watching the threat.

"Oh Leo." The queen said with an entertained smile. "Seeing you always makes my day. When I'm around the Retian blood in your veins snaps to attention and controls your mouth. I do love it. Warms my loins."

"The papers, Guinevere."

She looked at them, taking them from the lynx with a face. "We know he's not into girls."

"I would not put rape beneath you."

She smiled, sliding her eyes over to the king who was trying not to cower. "Neither would I. Now these papers." She read through them, bored and nodding. "The Kaspians agree to leave this country alone if it is under the protection of Nalaenir and Falia. Hum, unimportant things about what we won't do, we agree that Latia will be it's own place allied with you two. No fine print. Just simply protection in times of war, that sort of thing. It really is a shame you're allying yourself with them. Many would not accept you two as allies considering a man was traeted as a woman. Oh well. That's what I get for killing the old king I suppose." A truth, along with some mental and physical trauma for the boy king, all true. She enjoyed how he couldn't even look at her. She wondered if he felt sick. "Is your brother in mourning?"

Saleh flinched hearing his language on her tongue, trying to curl away even more from his standing spot. "Yes."

"How lucky he is to not have to see me. Do you agree to the terms of the paper?" And re-explained them for his ear, waving the papers until finally handing them back to Elliot.

"Th-They sound fine..."

Yashweh, Chelsea, Saleh

"Oh you beg?" Guinevere asked, "What a shame. Begging is only for those who demand more drugs to erase conscious thought. I've had boys like that." And slid her eyes at Tsume, "But we're well aware of what your boy sounds like when high, don't we?" she took the Falian papers, tsking. "But you are not allies with other countries. I find it rather useless for myself to promise not to harm countries that aren't under your jurisdiction." Hmm, but she'd find a way around this. There were always ways around it. "I hear your family is expanding, Leo. Congratulations."

"Are you going to sign it or not, Guinevere?"

"Do not rush me, boy. You have no army and the Falian army takes a few seconds to get here. More than enough time to rain fire on this pitiful little desert. Hand me a pen." And took the one from Elliot, speaking to Tsume while signing her name. "Be careful with boys like that, sometimes they get an itch, a small need for powders and herbs." She smiled at him, handing the papers back. "Once addicted, my friend. Now sign yours."

Elliot took the pen, pressing it to the paper and making one stroke before saleh gave a sudden cry of pain.

He gripped his stomach, gasping in shock before looking, the same stroke visible there.

"I'm not causing harm to the country." She murmured. "What's a few scars to save a country?"

Yashweh, Chelsea, Saleh

Yes, drown the poor hare in addictions to keep his mind clean. "Technically though, Latia isn't even a country yet is it? He's drafted no papers for it. Just spouted words of hope and of the future. Until he makes it an official country, I am free to do whatever I please."

Elliot's ears raised, turning to Saleh quickly. "Is this a country?! Your brother said it was!"

"Tsk tsk, listening to a child's words. Like they know any better."
