Everyone was out. It was noon. Anna had taken Rose and Sam out for the day, after her fatal wound healed up a bit, she decided to actually do something nice and allow Erikk to have a nice, relaxing day off. Sylas was in the SY world like normal, just out and about doing whatever he pleased. He just was going to sleep the day away, but he couldn't just do that.
He wanted to do something productive, like move around some of the furniture in the living room. Hah! What a joke. He didn't do that. He waited out the day and was lazy for most of it. At around three in the afternoon, he decided he would try and put up a nice picture that he had bought at the flee market a few days earlier. He had actually bought that one.
It was big, bulky, and it would look perfect in his room. He had to drag it from the living room, where it was sitting, to his bedroom. "God this painting is heavy! What did they paint with! Pure gold?" he said, trying his hardest to lift the painting up to the nail. He hadn't realized that the frame was actually pure gold. He put it above the head of his bed. "Phew..." he said as he laid down for a few seconds to rest.
What happened then was rather scary. The painting fell off the wall, and the heavy, pure gold frame collapsed on his head, knocking him out completely. It fell to the floor after that and it lay beside his bed. It looked as if he was sleeping too. Everyone was still out, and would be for the next few hours if everything went according to plan.

The spirits were quite glad that they hadn't had to do much defying of physics to get this man knocked out - that'd have been annoying. All they had to do this time was heal his body, fix the picture back up right - cause they're nice like that-, stick the body in a bed on Feejhu's ship, and bond his spirit. Soon enough the man was waking up wearing a strange little silver necklace that was completely unable to be removed or broken. The most odd thing was what he was facing, though.
A young pregnant woman in her late teens sat on a comfy chair in front of him. She had six arms and was in the middle of watering her plants with two sets of them and eating with the main set.

Erikk awoke with a startling figure before him. "AHH!!!!!" he screamed. It wasn't like him to do that, but everything seemed out of the ordinary with this. It was some kind of fairy tale. Six armed woman? That was rather scary.
"What are you!? Where am I!? What happened? And what is this necklace!?" he asked, all at once. He was so shocked he couldn't think straight. He couldn't take the necklace off, it was as if his head was to big to get it off, and it wasn't breaking if he tried to pull it apart. What was this place?

"I am a reborn life goddess. You're temporarily on my ship so I can explain that necklace. You got knocked out for a few moments so that you could get bonded to a deity. That necklace houses the soul of another reborn deity which you shall be caring for." Feejhu said, taking another bite of her soup. Babies were hungry and it was one of the only things she could keep down.

"Wait a second...so that picture fell on me on purpose? And I'm here because you're giving me some kind of thing to take care of? How does that even work? I'm taking care of some kind of 'deity' that you have placed in this necklace? Well, I guess...just go ahead and explain. Because I'd sure like to find out what this is all about..." he said, all at one time. He was confused, but willing to listen now that he had calmed down a bit.

"Well I wouldn't know how the spirits chose to knock you out - I'm not involved in any of that. And yes, they sent you here because for some reason they chose you to be a guardian and you needed to be informed of that. You shall be caring for a reborn god baby and raising them, yes. Their soul is housed in that necklace since it has to be close to yours to remain in the world of the living instead of the dead until it's regained it's body." Feejhu explained.

Erikk nodded, actually somehow understanding all of this. He was surprised at it though. Why they chose him was beyond his understanding. He already has to care for 3 children as is, and Anna being the 'motherly figure' wasn't all that great either. But he was glad to accept yet another child. "Alright, that's okay. I can deal with having another kid. But, how long do I have to wait for him or her to be reborn again? And, how exactly will I know when they are? Do they just appear, or what? How do I obtain the child?" he asked. Though he was alright with this new situation, he was still rather unsure of some things.
He then began to think of how Anna would react to having ANOTHER child to care for. She wouldn't be to happy. She was fine with Sylas, and she got a bit annoyed at Sam, and then when Rose came along, she was even more annoyed, and now what about this child? He might even lose her to his kids if this kept up.

"You never really know how long it will take. Could be a couple of days, could be a week or so." the girl said with a shrug. "However, it won't be hard to know when they're reborn. You have a dream, go in, touch the body, the soul version of the relic goes back into the body as a soul, the old body reforms the soul and the old relic becomes the new body. It's complicated but you'll understand better when it happens. The relic won't be there anymore and you'll have gotten the kid."

Erikk nodded. He hoped that his understanding would become more apparent when it did happen, as she said it would.
He didn't really have anymore questions for this woman. It was just all still rather new to him. Nothing like this had EVER happened before and he didn't know how to take it. He smiled and said, "Alright, well, what do I do until then? Are we done here?"

"Get ready for another kid, that's about all you can do." she said with a final shrug. "Yes we are. If you would please go stand on that metal plate on the floor and close your eyes, you shall be home shortly." and with that, he was.
