Welcome to Gaia! ::

The white harpy listed towards the left, scanning the mountains below for signs of a large lake. The baffles in her nares sensed a change in air pressure, corresponding to the presence of a large body of fresh water. The avian looked farther west, and spied the lake beneath the clouds. She folded her wings, entering a low-grade stoop. Once over the lake, the harpy pulled up, laboring in a hover while she looked for the manse. Turning about in a circle, she finally spotted the grand edifice at the northwest corner of the lake, carved into the mountain range. She wheeled, gliding over the lake before landing softly before the great stone portal.

Draeken laughed and shrugged. "Alright alright. You win. I can't compete with your affection or your sense sometimes." Kissing her forehead as she nuzzled against him, he smiled to himself.

T: "It may sound pathetic, but I can understand and know well your feelings. Then shall we head away from here for a time? Just point the way." He looked around the area and noticed a newcomer, but ignored them for the time being. They were'nt what was important.

Aethi: Laughing, Aethi began to pet Ari's hair after she had laid her head down. "Awww come on! I love you too, but that doesnt mean I wouldnt explain something to you!" She grinned then blinked as she saw a rather strange looking creature approach the mansion and drop below the roof and hence her line of sight. "I think we have a guest. I wonder if Draeken has noticed or if we should go say hello?"

Following Athaele, Truinthil walked with a smile on his face. Perhaps he did not have the life he once did, but that didnt bother him at all. No. Not one bit.

D: "Light! You're burning up. Are you okay, love?" Looking at her with concern Draeken reached for a blanket to wrap around Phia. "How you're not showing it on your face and in your eyes I have no idea, but that is one hell of a fever."

Aethi: "Alright then. We can save your show and tell stuff for later I think." Laughing she stood up and simply ran towards the edge of the roof, doing a swan dive and allowing herself to free fall for a breif second before rolling into a tight ball, flipping and landing lightly and gracefully on her feet.

Draeken shrugged and shook his head, eye wide with confusion. "Well, it's your body and your the medical genius around here. I can only use a bit of healing magics to patch up a few cuts and bruises...Not much good for diagnosing what ailes you." He grinned sheepishly then scratched the back of his head. He really had no idea what would make her have such a fever.

T: Tilting his head and smiling back at the woman, Truinthil laughed. "What's on your mind, if I may ask?" The way Athaele was looking at him now made him think there was something on her mind.

Aethi: Shaking her head at Ari's flyby she muttered the same thing that had been said of her, without knowing it had been said. "Well. Now that at least one of us is down here, perhaps we could greet this guest...If they are nice that is."

(Pokes and prods at the new guest person thing* Heloooo )

((Okay. Seriously. I'm tired of people making an entrance then not replying to my attempts at acknowledging them. Sure, sometimes I take a bit of time. I have a job and am often working 8 hour days that destroy even my own rather abundant energy supply.

Also, in referrence to the time jump, please, if anyone other than myself and Phia are reading this right now, look to the thread that our guild leader has set up pertaining to the time skip and 'break the world' scenario. Give your input. Help the guild get back on its feet activity-wise.

And to Phia, sorry but that's all I have for tonight. I'm really not in a good mood right now.))

Atha looked to him leaning over and hugging him tightly, buring her face into his chest.

Phia kept her eyes on her books, not moving for some time from her desk, she didn get up for a few times only to retireve more books, she kept reading for a great deal of time, not noticing that D was there, she paused for a moment before looking up to the window, it was dark out now, she looked back seeing D's reflection.

"I got pregnant before you were split with D...right? Well... what if that effected the child? What if when the Aethi got rid of the evil...it didn't leave...what if it was transferred to this child?"

A soft "I know..." was mumbled into his chest, Finally she pulled away from him, her violet eyes searching his, a small smile of gratitude upon her lush crimson lips.

"Well...evil doesn't just disspear, it has to go somewhere, sure in a lesser form but it needs a place to go.... maybe...it was transferred to this child, infected it, made it sick and that's what's been effecting me...because...this never happened when I was pregnant with Aria..." Her lip trembled she put her elbows on her desk and her face into her hands. "Oh...I don't know but I'm scared D..."

She looked up to him, her eyes very determained.
"Let's go somewhere anywhere...I don't mind where I just would like to be with you, on our own without someone snooping on us...Please..."

Phia couldn't even look to Draeken. "We both know that it doesn't just dissapear...it turns into something else...like Truinthil was created from evil... or it manifests within some elses, posesses them..." She bit down on her lip hard, red welling from around her fang, she set her hands on her swollen stomach protectively, staring down at it, she didn't want this child to have a conflicted life. But that's what it was for them, for this family. When everything was starting to go well it got turned upside down.
