Welcome to Gaia! ::

"And it's solid and slippery!" Lin replied back, "I've never seen ice, I was born in the summer, but I can't wait for my first Chirstmas.. .and the new year... I want to see what all those is like."

She mused.

"It's suppose to snow it winter back home."

Daeron chuckled. "Likewise," he said warmly to Lore. "By the Valar, Nara-thel, it's been way too long! Lin's been here, Serenity's been here, I hear you were in the Borderlands ... Nako said I missed you by only a week, you left so quickly ..."

He looked at Lore again. "I heard a lot about you, I feel as if I know you already," he smiled. "I think Ada actually nearly got angry with Tinuviel, though he ended up blaming me for taking her along. We heard you were back when Donovan, Thalion-tol and Yue came here, so we went to see you ... but you were gone so we visited with Nako for a week."

He paused. "It ... was Tinuviel's first time seeing her."





Earendil slid around a bit, holding Lin's hands and sliding her around with him. "I haven't seen snow either," he chuckled, "but Daeron has. He travels a lot."

He paused. "But ... what's Christmas?"

"Well uhm..." Lin mused trying to explain a concept that she had never seen before, "Mommy says it's a time when family and friends get together and spend time with each other and exchange presents to show how much they care for each other."

At least for her only the exchanging the gifts part is what made it different from New Years, but New Years was about the new year and good luck.

Daeron grinned at Idhril. "Yes, we're cousins," he agreed. "Your mother is indeed my aunt, but my father refuses to allow me to refer to her that way."

He looked back at Lore. "And how did you like it? Ulani and Ulrich said they enjoyed having you, I know they want to have you all visit again."

He grinned at Elnara and poked her shoulder. "Of course he's still my hero, and so are you. You saved me from those men!"




"Ah," Earendil nodded. "That sounds nice ... kind of like a collective birthday, I guess." He smiled. "It sounds like fun."

"Yes," Lore replied back, "I enjoyed it a lot," he admitted.

At least now his answers were, indirectly answered to why Daeron referred to Triton and Elnara as such. So they might have a problem from Elnara's brother who was Daeron's father. He kept that in mind.

Daeron moved to sit back behind his desk. "Working," he replied. "He spends most of his time every day at the forge, at least when I'm around. I'm told he comes out a bit more when I'm gone, but ..."

He shrugged.



Earendil nodded. "In about a month from now, we have the festival of the Enderi, it lasts three days and it's a lot of fun. Mettare, the last day of the year, there'a a huge celebration as well - and Yestare, the first day of the year, is an even bigger celebration because it's the day of Nako's coronation."

Elnara blinked. "You? Why you? He was thrilled when you got back, I mean, he almost made me feel like I was accepted again when I got back! Are you saying that he's avoiding you?"

That didn't make any sense at all ...

"I really would want to, but I don't think Elnara is going to stay that long," Lin pouted, "And I don't know when I would have to get back for it."

Indeed, she would be completley clueless on that sense, but she really wanted to be there.
