Feldspar moved through the night, bringing three with her. She spoke to Brom and Ziven before they arrived, allowing them time to know they were coming. "We are very close, I can see the glow from Ziven's windows .. we shall see you soon."

The trio performed arial maouvers as they neared Ziven's residence, feeling unusually energetic.

Tilting his head to the sky, Brom grinned as he watched those approaching show off a bit. Resting his hand on Ziven's shoulder for a moment, he looked to her fondly. "Truly, you will not upset anyone if you are too weary for company, I promise. However, if you insist, I will help you." he said with care. He then let her go and crossed his arms over his chest, while they waited the final moments for their guests to arrive.
Tilting to one side, Feldspar eased herself from the skies back to the ground. Once there, she looked to Brom and Ziven, bobbing her head. "Greetings, I hope you both are well."
Brom smiled and went to Feldspar, placing his hand on her jaw in greeting. "Aye, that we are, Bjartskular." he replied with a broad grin. Turning to the newcomers, he wandered in their direction now with Ziven.

Smiling brightly, she greeted everyone by bobbing her head. Moving swiftly to Feldspar, she the dragon's nose with her hands, resting her forehead on her nose for a moment before smiling and rather bouncing to David and the others. "Good evening, David, Nexum and Glaedr. You are all welcome in my home." she said to them all with her mind, including her master. Without another word, she turned and moved toward her house. Once she got to the door, she paused there, placing her hand on the frame which then expanded to a size large enough to fit both dragons - the room inside expanded also so that they could all comfortabally fit.
Entering her house, the weary feeling returned two fold. Moving across the room, trying to think of what to do next, she leaned against one of her bookshelves. When she did this, she closed her eyes, nearly falling asleep on that very spot. Unmoving, her breathing deepened as she relaxed, getting closer and closer to sleep.

David, Nexum, and Glaedr all bowed at her invitation and followed her through the door. When they saw Ziven lean against the bookshelf, David walked over to her and rested his hand on her sholder. "Is everything alright Ziven?"

Taking responsibility to make sure all Ziven's guests were taken care of, he moved his arm, motioning for they to all enter, he would follow. When they were all in, he made sure the door was shut behind him. Tilting his head when he saw David and Ziven, he nudged her mind with his own with peaceful thoughts, then spoke only to her; "Rest, Ziven. I will see to your guests, they will be treated as if I were you." he said to her reassuringly. Looking to David now, he spoke, a kind smile crossing his lips. "She is exhausted, David. Unwilling to allow herself to rest because she has company. Worry not, she will rest soon and I will see to your needs. If there is anything you require, please ask it and I will do what I can to provide. Hopefully she will feel comfortable resting soon, else I may be tempted to drag her off to bed myself!" he finished with a chuckle, knowing that a comment like that would usually spur her on to bed
Making her way slowly in to the house, after allowing their guests to enter first, she felt a bit out of place. With a sideways look to Glaedr, she could not contain her curiosity, speaking to him with her mind."Have you been in someone's home before?"

Slowly she lifted her gaze to David. Her expression seemed sad, troubled, but Brom was right - she was simply exhausted. Despite this fact, she spoke in the ancient language, telling them she would make tea. Moving slowly, she went up to the second floor, found the kettle, filled it and set the water to boil. As she did this, she gathered teacups on a tray, reading for tea.

David nodded his head and watched Ziven go. When she was gone, he turned to Brom and said, "You look so much like your father..."
Glaedr turned to Feldspar and nodded. "I have been in anothers house before, yes. My Rider lives in another dimention due to his, unique, qualities, and it is his house where I usually stay."

Looking to David with something very close to a shy grin, he nodded his head, crossing his arms over his chest. "Why think you, it's been ages since I've received such a compliment. Tell me, how might you know my father? A friend of his is certainly a friend of mine .. what a small world that you would befriend Ziven." he said, leaving out the detail that he had confessed to Ziven earlier.
A pleased feeling came across before Feldspar replied. "How fortunate you are! Usually I am only able to place my head in buildings, very rarely can I fit entierly in one's home. This is something I've always wondered about - Ziven's home here where she is on her own and --" she stopped and looked to Brom.
The smile faded suddenly and he uncrossed his arms before bolting up the stairs to where Ziven was.

Having finished putting the tea set together, she leaned up against the counter top, waiting for the water to boil. After a few minutes, she moved her hand over the pot to check how far it might be to heat, unable to use magic to do this in her current state. When she did this she accidentally touched the kettle for too long and wound up hurting her hand. Hissing at her stupidity and the fact that she had injured herself, she looked at her hand for a moment, licking the place she had burned before using the running water to ease the discomfort. By that time, Brom had reached her side.

"Ahh, child, you musn't push yourself like this .. I will help you, then you will sleep." he said with a kind smile. Turning the water off, he spoke the words of healing before drying her hand. Not giving her the opprotunity to protest, he picked her up and carried her off to her room. After lying her on the bed and covering her with a blanket, he kissed her forehead, realizing she had already fallen asleep. "Rest well, my child." he said peacefully to her, closing her door as he exited.

David remained downstairs, not wanting to get in the way.
Nexum landed on David's sholder. "I think there's something wrong with Ziven..."
David looked at him and replied, "I know, but this is an issure her master should take care of."
Nexum blinked, then said, "I believe that he is more than her master, I believe that he is her father."
David nodded at this. "Ah, so I'm not the only one who thinks this..."

Finally with the water ready, he brought everything down on a try and set it on the coffee table down where David and all were there. As he knew Ziven would like, he served tea to David first, being more of a guest than he was, before taking his own. Realizing there were three cups finally, he stared at it for a moment, hoping she would return to good health soon. There seemed to be question on David's mind. "Please, ask what you like. It is quite difficult to offend me."

"You're Ziven's father, correct?" David looked to glaedr and nodded. "Also, it appears that Feldspar is a bit uncomfortable, and I was wondering if the two of you would allow me to cast a spell on her to help her feel a little less out of place..."

"Aye, we are kin. I found this out only recently though." he said with a nod. A moment later, he arched a brow to his next comment. "Feldspar is well. Simply curious and feeling a trifle out of place being in someone's home. Usually the places we go aren't able to accomidate for creatures much larger than a humanoid." he said with a grin.
She rather purred softly and moved her head, speaking to them all again."Indeed, I am well, simply feeling out of place. Before my worry was due to Ziven injuring herself. When I can't see what happened to her, I worry terribly. She is my Little One after all, I must watch out for her." she explained, closing her eyes to show she was alright but still concerned for Ziven.
