Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Nana looked to the park bench, then nodded back to Thanatos*

--.--;

Yes, it was quite distressing. One of Mastema's allies..... tried to kidnap Micha...!

--_--;

I'm just thankful Mastema stopped Micha from being taken from the citadel. The ally, for some reason or another seemed to be fixated on the bracelet you'd made for Micha. It was broken, and currently is sitting on his side table back in the room.

*Nana continued with the tale of how Truinthil had tried to take Micha from the citadel. He would see the damage done to the bracelet later, the damage done to Micha had mostly healed now*

--_--

Someone by the name of Truinthil. It seems that he could come and go from the citadel, reguardless of the barrier's presence. That worries me, since that means its possible for him to try and take Micha again.

>_>

This, Truinthil came under the guise of being an ally. I don't know specificly if it was the bracelet he was after, but he was trying to take Micha aswell.

--.--;

He ended up getting hurt a little, Mastema tended to his injuries though. There was a bandage on his arm for several days. Micha was attacked in the library, when he was alone.

*Simply from that, it would be easier for Thanatos to see why after such an event that Nana would be far more cautious about "allies" and her children being alone with them. There was a new ally too, Orias, and Thanatos had yet to hear more about the man or see him yet*

--_--

I think, I might cast a spell of no entry upon the library. I saw the spell briefly in an book. Only those whom the caster will allow by name would be able to enter the structure. At least then, I'd feel a bit better about leaving the children alone in the library.

--__--

*Nana turned to Thanatos and gave him a hug, his voice seemed distant like he was off in thought but sad. She would keep Thanatos in the hug for a good minute or so. Once Thanatos did finally see the bracelet, then he would see the extend of damage done to it. That would probably make him wonder just how badly Micha had been hurt aswell. There was still skin flakes and flaked blood on the bracelet*

--__--

I hope it doesn't have to serve is purpose either. Hmm? Your father said it doesn't matter how powerful you make the barrier, that man would still find a way inside. No one else has managed to get through though, not without your father's approval at least.

*Nana finally releases Thanatos from the hug, and looks back at him*

o___o

Your barrier is a sight to behold, and it does work. We'll just have to more dillegent here on the inside. If that man should appear again, I won't let him near any of them.... not one of the children will be felled by that man's presence again.

*So Thanatos had finally said it, he had finally accepted Nana enough to finally call her mother. The mere word sparked a shine in Nana's eyes that had't been there a moment before, she was happy. She would continue to support Thanatos, be his lent ear. Nana was proud of the lad, and she would let him know about it too*

o___o

If you believe you can better the barrier, then you have my support. There's really nothing you can't do if you really put your mind to it. I have faith in your abilities, and Thanatos...

--__--

I'm proud of you... I'm so very proud of you...!

*Meanwhile back in the central tower, Micha had left the room. Trilla and Eecheb had gone from idle chatting to arguing, so Micha left to find a little peace of his own. He starts up the stairs, after having closed the door to the room, one could still hear Trilla and Eecheb. Just how loud where they? Apperently Eecheb had gone to get something from under his bed, when the end of a cane poked out from the end of the bed. It was the same cane Trilla had left in the elevator so she could go all the way up and down the tower. As one could imagine, the two immediately started to argue over the item, and thusly Micha left*

Micha: . . .

Trilla: It's mine!!

Eecheb: No it's mine, I found it!!

*Nana shook her head lightly to Thanatos, about having failed, and tries to be possitive again*

--__--

There was a human man I remember, several years ago he went by the name of Thomas Edison. Do you know what he did? He created the light bulb. But you see, before it as ever perfected, he had ten thousand prototypes that didn't work. Think about that for a moment. Ten thousand non-working prototypes. Do you know what he said about that? He said "I have not failed, I have merely found ten thousand ways that don't work.".

*Hopefully Thanatos would understand. He hadn't really failed, he'd only have to try something else until everything worked out. Once Thanatos had mentioned Eecheb, Nana opens her eyes and looks over to the boy*

>_> ?

Hmm? Like what?

*Micha does stop momentarily to look at Fenton. Though he probably wouldn't like where Micha was going at all, to the mind and possibly Mastema. The mind was the highest point inside of the citadel that he could reach, and he could look out over the rest of his home from that place too. It didn't matter to him if Mastema was there, the boy seemed non-chalant in that respect, adopting Mastema's overly calm nature when it surfaced. Fenton seemed free to come and go as it pleased so it was up to the small whomper, whether or not it chose to follow Micha or not*

Micha: . . .

*Proto, Zenogais, and Orias? My my, that did place an odd image in Nana's mind. All three of them were at one spot. Proto must have been attending to Eecheb, like Nana had asked of the automation. "If one of them should want to leave the tower, could you accompany them?". That was what Nana had asked of Proto, after Orias had joinned the Citadel's ranks*

>.>;

Well, now I know why Proto wanted something heavy to beat the man senseless with. What kind of gift exactly?

*Nana blinks at the lighter for a moment. Orias had given her son a lighter?! What was he thinking? Was he thinking? Was this how he was getting information out of them? Offering small trinkets n exchange for things like names? Nana didn't look at all too pleased. Nana wasn't too happ with Orias before, but now she was really ticked*

.__.

He gave my son a lighter? .................................. T___T

*After reaching the mind, Micha wandered to one of the windows again and staired down to the dim lit streets below. Eecheb and Trilla were still yelling at eachother, luckily only yelling at eachother. Aside from Zio and Proto there was no one in the tower to watch the children. If something happened, then hopefully Nana would be alerted, or Mastema if he was nearby*

*How dare Orias do such a thing. Not only would she speak with Zenogais, but now Orias aswell. Even if Orias was an ice demon, he'd probably feel a slight chill where ever he was, right about now. Nana continues to stare at the small metal incased Zippo. Still for Thanatos she'd keep an open ear*

--_--;;;

I'm listening...
