"That's interesting, that may be why he came to my place. Rayne was in my library reading something. Strange, that was the last time I saw the girl, wonder what happened to her." Nuzzeling her head, "Well Morgan it would seem he has taken after his mother in some regards then."

"He must be a fosterling!" Chanti protested, eating a slice of bread "I can see no other way, you say that he is almost two years older than you!" An added effect might have quite possibily been an attempt to stop the intimacy she saw there.

"It was delivered to me after he left. I had just learned that he was deployed to Camran. Chanti," Morgan closed her eyes some and brushed her cheek against Quin's "I had him roughly two years ago. There's an enchantment on him to accelerate his growth. A PAC known as the Wryds said he would die before twenty. By speeding him up to maturity he gets to live out more time as an adult than if we put him on normal growth."

"I'm not really sure what to say to that, but I suppose I should get used to all this magic affecting children. I've already heard about a "Chakra". That and I still need to get used to the fact that everyone but myself and Quin carries weapons on them constantly." done with the bread she had more tea.

"I recall that Quin has a gun of his, he was kind enough to show me one day." Morgan lifted her head up from Quin's shoulder and smiled "So I guess you really are alone when it comes to no weapons."

That wasn't a nice smile "I guess so...wait! I know!" she put down her tea triumphantly and gave Morgan a genuine smile "What about Rivven? He's bedridden and doesn't have any weapons! Actually, is he sick and all alone right now?" she wondered aloud.

Morgan was up and behind Chanti in less than a minute. She'd regret implying that Morgan was abandoning Rivven by staying here. A knife was againt Chantico's throat " This is my weapon. Would you care to take a closer look?"

"Absit invidia!" Chanti breathed, shocked and scared. Even if she'd had the courage she couldn't look back at Morgan behind her or the knife pressed to her throat. She could feel the blunt side of it's steel.

"Ars sine scienta nihil est" She replied with a ironic sweet edge to it. And she knew that Chanti wouldn't be able to look back at the blade. Actually she was staring right at Quin. How nice of him to watch. Of course, he had very nice carpets....

"Avarus animus nullo satiatur lucro!"he wasn't going to save her! He was just going to watch, while a mad Morgan slit her throat over such a trivial and not intended offense! She couldn't move to touch the cross at her chest, instead she pictured it in her mind as tears slid down her cheeks "Ave atque vale."

"Brevis ipsa vita est..... sed malis fit longior" she kissed Chanti's cheek and let the dagger fall to the floor. She was such a little drama queen. Besides the carpets getting soiled, her death wouldn't matter that much. Wasted effort. However, " Cave quid dicis, quando, et cui" she warned.

Immidiatly Chantico clutched her throat and breated heavily. Not even a faint scratch had been imposed upon her neck, but the shock of it made her think her head was about to roll off at any minute. Had that all been a joke? No, that warning was sincere. "Cogitationis poenam nemo patitur." she told her, getting a little bolder. Chanti simply had to insist that she hadnt meant anything by the comment. Trying to make amends she said "Clara pacta- boni amici?"

"Amici." she stepped back and picked up the dagger. Not her best one, the rest were home with Rivven, he was armed but she'd let that go. They had made a sort of truce.

"Ave Maria!" Chantico sighed with pure relief, then saw that her hat was still on the table. Taking it from where Morgan had been sitting she placed it back on her head and started to fasten it. She didn't know how well her arguement had worked, Morgan be so fickle, and now she couldn't walk with her anymore.

"Nihil curo de ista tua stulta superstitione. Regina Maeve- it doesn't matter. And enough with the cover. This tongue works well enough, I'm surprised you used it first to beg for yourself."
