The sun had nearly set as the snow continued to fall over over the land, sounds of music could be heard from a huge tent that had been set up near the home. It was the night on Christmas day and everything seem perfect, the families were all gathered to celebrate this joyful hoilday. Inside was more beautiful then the outside. It had been lit by fairy light thanks to the fairies Tinania had invited. In the middle of the tent was a fifthteen foot tree that sparkled from every angle as the lights seem to dance to the music playing. Each ornament was unique and some were even of the people within this huge family. On the top was a glowing silver angel that seem to watch over them all as the party went on. Under the tree the presents that went on forever. Each present was wrapped in elaborate paper, some were small and some seem to be to big to move. Along the right side of the tent was a long table filled with treats. Cookies of different kinds, turkey, ham, lasagna, wines, cakes. It was a feast fit for the kings. ~~~~~~~~ Krista was laying her head on Rinon's chest keeping quiet as she watched the family. Its was the first time in the longest time that everyone was gathered in the same spot. And for this is why she loved this hoilday, she looks at Rinon smiling before looking up as she heard giggling. Drac, Ren, Diana and Tinania were all gathered together near the christmas tree trying to see what everything was. Nani was holding her youngest child Anila who was trying hard to get free so she could go play with the presents. Comos and Kaelin were for once talking, but it was about this hoilday that seem to make their caretakers act very strange. You would have never guess that they never got along the way they were acting at this point. Michelle the newest child in the family was sitting by the tree. Every once in awhile she would look around before picking a gift up and shaking it. Leave it to a child of eleven to be curious. ~~~~~~~~~ Krista shook her head as she heard her sisters voice " Hey Kris, you okay sis?" Mel looked at her slightly confused. She had for once decided to be normal and dress up. More for Lenore's sake. She was in a long dark red silk gown with matching red elven slippers. Her hair was down for once which still shocked her sister. Its also had a sprig of mistletoe right above her right ear. Krista nods smiling " Yea I'm fine now, I was just thinking thats all." she blushes then brushes her hands on her along her dark blue gown " I was just off in my own world..." to tell the truth she was thinking the family was missing someone, but she had learned not to bring it up, not to hurt her sister. The music continues to plays and Mel smiles then turns to rest her head on Lenore's shoulder. She had a feeling she knew what was bugging her sister, but didn't wish to bring it up. She just wanted to enjoy the night.

Lenore places a hand on the small of Melantha's back, resting her cheek on Mel's head. Her eyes hold a hint of sadness, though, even with the happy smile plastered on her lips.
This time of year is supposed to be about family. Even if she hates the bloody holiday, she still wishes that Damien's mum were around, to see him.
She watches him, as he ignores Nani, and talks to Lucius over by the buffet. The sound of his laughter makes her smile even wider, though.
Her eyes scan the tent for more people. Katharina is off on her own, listening to her headphones, and trying to get Bellatrix to stop tugging at her flame-red hair.
Ernia is sticking close to her mum, Nyoka, who is talking to Aylana close by the tree.
Rinon is with his wife, holding her close to him. The sight of this makes her hold Mel a little closer, as well.
Ximena, festive in a purple, naughty Mrs. Clause outfit, is tending to Alasseo, making sure that the frail elf has everything that she needs.
She sighs, contentedly as possible. This is all she wanted, for the whole family to be here.
All she wanted for Christmas. But, they are still a few people shy. . . .
"I'm going to go get something to drink," she tells Melantha. "I'll pick you up some wine while I am at the table," she adds. She kisses her, briefly, and playfully flicks the mistletoe, before going over to the table.

Ala stood looking happily around the tent, she was blissfully unaware of the missed people, well ok she knew of one, but she'd never met her so it didn't make that much of an effect on her, there was already more new faces there then she had ever met at once before. Dressed for once in a dress, an oriental dress, she sits just to one side of her friends, she eyes the members of her own family who were there, particularly her husband who looked somewhat perplexed at the whole idea of christmas. She was proud of all she had helped Krista prepare
Surion stood beside Nani one arm around her waist "All this is truely something I've never seen before.. and this is celebrated every year?" he asks
Aylana stands with Nyoka her long hair tied back elegantly and she wore a festive but black dress

Bring out your dead,
lay them long, lay them low.
Bring out your dead,
here we go, soft and slow. She cannot help but hum a part of one of the many tunes, if they could be called such, that she had endured during the last few months from that detestable woman within the confines of the celestial tree she had stumbled into helping create. 'That's the last time I try to interfere with nature magic,' she grumbles in her head, hearing a soft ressonance of agreement from the large jaguar padding less than two feet from her right side. Her rash actions had caused more grief for those that now traveled with her than she wished she could remember. If not for the fact that it would only make things far worse in the end, she would ask... no, beg... for Eilistraee to take all memory of her from this world and take her home where she would cause no further damage. 'Yeah, like that would solve anything,' the old familiar voice comments in the grousing moon elf's mind. 'You would slowly wither into nothing without your family, and no matter what your goddess willed, Lenore would remember you. We both know that. What of Shina? She's nearly died twice bec...' The shadowdancer visibly winces, and the Shadowkin swiftly changes the subject. 'Itzel could not survive without me, and where you go, I follow. No, we stay.''I don't suppose that Lucius would have anything to do with that, would it?' Ahlian cuts into the mental conversation, 'Do stop reciting the obvious, Alimus. She knows we aren't going anywhere but home. Rubbing it in doesn't help matters.'The soft sound of sweeping wings overhead alerts all three conversationalists at once. Elf, Shadowkin, and Doggin watch in silence as the majestic forms of Shina and Vinyn pass over them, the two sisters matching one anothers pace as they start to get ahead of those on foot. Eirnae simply smiles at the sight, though the corners of her mouth tighten to show where her true thoughts reside. How could she ever make this all up to her family? A vision of Lenore smiling in her arms fills her vision for a pleasant moment, the two of them surrounded by their loved ones. A light touch on her arm brings her back to reality, as her once near twin that is her adopted daughter, Arlath, quietly points out the lights from something large in the distance. She nods to Arlath's inquiring look, and the gathering of those once long asleep starts toward the tent full of party goers at a renewed pace.

Mel simply nods watching Lenore walk away from her. Brushing her bangs from her face she frowns. This was somethings she would indeed have to get use to. She was half tempted to braid it but knew better not to. She turns to Ala placing a hand on her shoulder "You and my sister did an amazing job. I have never seen such a grander party then this one."
Krista laughs then shakes her head pushing her pale orange hair from face. She looks up at Rinon running a finger along his bottom lip "Enjoying the party?"
Tinania leans in brushing her lips against Surion's cheek "Yup, see I told you this was a great hoilday. It brings everyone together." she winces when Anila pokes at her neck "Okay okay Ani I'll place you down." she bends foward alittle placing Anila down. The little pae instantly runs over and wraps her arms around Kaelin and Comos's legs.
Boths pae glared at the child before just laughing as they kneel down to hug the younger child. That only made Tinania giggle as she leaned closer to Surion.
Ren and Drac were still deep in discussion talking about what they believe that had gotten. Every once in awhile Ren would glance over toward Ernia trying to get her friend to join them.
Michelle had finally stopped looking though the gifts as she stood to heading to the buffet table. She looked at all the food licking her lips. Reaching up she grabbed herself a cookie taking a bite from it.

Lenore looks at all the food that she cannot eat. For once, she does not frown. She's over her ache for tea, and cookies. Musketeer bars, and fruits of all shapes.
She puts her palms on the table, and leans on them. She blows her bangs out of her eye, only to have them cover it once more. She looks out at the sky, and smiles. Reaching up, she pulls the dark glasses from her eyes. Her eyes sting a little in the remaining light, but she is used to it by now.
She then goes about getting her and Mel's drinks.
Rinon is pulled from his thoughts, and his starry, night blue eyes move to Krista's. "Of course," he replies, smiling now. "I am with my family. What more can be better?" he asks.
"Want food," Bellatrix tells Katharina. The girl rolls her gray eyes, and sighs. The only reason she is tolerating the pae is because Lenore asked her to.
And, she only respects Lenore because of who her father is. . . .
So, she gets up, taking Bellatrix's hand, and steers her toward the buffet.
Ernia finally catches Ren's eye, and excuses herself from the conversation her mum and Aylana are holding. She slips away without much notice.
Hello, Ernia signs, inclining her head a little. Of course she is dressed to the nines, a sparking silver dress in her usual fashion, with matching stiletto heels. Her crown is on her head, and she is glittering with various, amethyst-encrusted bits of jewelry. She smiles at Ren, now, and holds her arms out for a hug.
Lucius and Damien are putting there heads together at another table, now, glancing at Mel and Lenore as they talk in low voices.
Ximena makes her way toward her brother, and her sisters-in-law, and Ala. "Hey," she says, for once without a cigarette in her mouth. She does have a glass of bourbon in her hand, though. "Nice digs," she adds, pushing her long hair behind her shoulder. "I love how everything turned out. And, thank you, whoever got the liquoir. I don't think I could deal with this much family without something to boost my spirits." She jokes.
Rinon rolls his eyes a little, in a good-natured fashion. "Don't listen to her, she loves this sort of thing. . . ."
Ximene merely narrows her purple eyes at Rinon, before shrugging and grinning again.

Ala smiled "Thanks Mel" she too is proud of the work she has done with Krista. She blinks having gotten used to the scents of all the people there she picks up more her eyes though not her head look towards the side of the tent where the main opening is
Surion wraps his arms around her waist kissing her cheek softly "Love you Nani, I'm glad to be here with you for this"

The grey winged Fa'e, Shina, and her Crystaelis sister, Vinyn, alter their course into a slow loop. The latter calls upon the wind to power both of the women's already pumping wings to keep them aloft and hovering as Shina calls down to the still walking Eirnae, "Mother, please convey my love to everyone for me. Vinyn and I are going to the manor to collect a few things before we brave the tent."
Eirnae looks up to smile at her eldest, quietly admiring her daughter's inner strength for a long seeming second before she nods in agreement. "They will wish that you came with me directly, Shina and Vinyn, but if they've waited this long... they can wait a short while longer."
Vinyn twists her lips into a faint smile, but the echo of grief of the time that's been lost is reflected on the young Crystaelis' face, as it is on all that move towards the glimmering lights in the distance. Shina's smile is only a bit brighter as she flaps her mighty wings to turn herself around in Vinyn's warm drafts, the two sisters gaining altitude as they head in the direction of the far side of the large manor that sits forbodingly in the semi-dark of the evening.
Such reminds Eirnae of something she feels must be done, and so she adds a bit of speed to her steps for a bit before turning to address those who are with her. What is said is soft, but with authority, and the meaning isn't hard to guess when all but Eirnae herself gather into groups of two and scatter into the surrounding woods. Now alone, and with a determined glint in her sea green eyes, the shadowdancer runs to the nearest shadow and seems to leap into it.
~~~~~~~~~~
Not much concentration is required for her to go from shadow to shadow, seeking out the sight of Lenore amongst those who are reveling at the party. So many faces that she doesn't know are here, and her curiousity tugs at her insides, but her true goal keeps her grounded, even when she spots folk who are dear to her, memories of sisterhood and friendship filtering past her sense of guilt like sunshine into a cold room.
Then she catches the sway of bright green as the sound of a forceful breath touches her ears. She almost laughs at how close that rush of air had been to her cheek, she'd gotten so close to the source. 'Always under your nose...,' she reminds herself as she adds a couple of feet of distance between her and her intended target, letting the shadows slide from her leathered form slowly as she whispers in elven, "Mela..."

Krista nods to Xim arching a brow before she laughs as she leans up to Rinon to kiss him, but she stopped when she saw the black clothing, then the hair, she knew that color way to well. She steps away from Rinon watching it until it steps up to Lenore. It was when she heard the voice that her knees gave way out from under her and she hit the ground. Her hands were on the ground as she just watched. She shook her head also speaking in elven loud enough in hopes of catching the person attention "Is it really you?"
Mel smiles to Xim then turns as she heard her sister hit the ground. She turns wondering what had cause it, thats when she looked up seeing Lenore with the person she knew from the only picture she ever seen in Krista's part of the home. She stood there as sadness filled her eyes, but she quickly hides it as she removes all emotions from her face just watching. She didn't move nor did she speak.
Tinania giggles curling close to Surion then gasps seeing her mother hit the ground. She pulls from Surion running to her mother "Mum you okay?" she place her hand on her mother's shoulder worried about her.
Ren walks into Ernia's arms giving her friend a warm hug. She pulls away then sniffs the air before turning, its was a familar scent but she couldn't place it. She looks around then her eyes widen as she saw who it was. She hadn't seen her since she was young.
Drac was already staring her tail flicking across the ground, was it really the woman who she always heard her mother talking about. Diana was looking at both of her sister really confused.
Michelle had by then rushed back over to sit with the pae'il, they were all now sitting there looking around at the presents. Giggling without a care in the world. Nor did they know what was going on.

It is the smell that gets to her first. Vanilla, leather . . . mint. . . . Her head snaps up, and her eyes fall on the ghost of her past.
She feels her heart beating, loud and fast, in her chest, and her eyes fill with blood tears. She drops the glass in her hand, letting it fall to the grass and spill all over her shoe. Her hand goes to her chest. . . .
Rinon hurries to Krista's side, glancing over at the woman who seems to have appeared from the shadows. "Krista, are you alright?" he asks, worry in his eyes as he looks back at his wife.
Ximena whistles softly, and sips at her bourbon. Her purple eyes don't leave the back of her half-sister's head as she lights a cigarette. She has a feeling she might need it. . . .
Nyoka, her brow furrowed, looks around to see what has everyone's tones so changed. The sight that she sees before her makes her eyes widen. Her jaw clenches a little, as an unexpected flare of anger ignites in her. She quickly is shaking her head, to clear it, as the shock of who she sees in front of her sinks in.
Ernia looks around when Ren pulls away, and sees a familiar woman as well. She looks at Virendra, questioningly.
Damien, on the other hand, has risen from his seat so hastily, that the chair falls back. He leaves it there, as he cannot move. He can't believe his eyes. . . . "Mum?" he asks, softly.
Lucius, too, is watching the sight before him. It isn't long before his blue eyes are scanning his surroundings. He takes this opportunity to duck out of the tent. Once outside, he sniffs the air, expirimentally.
As Damien takes a step forward, he hears Lenore asks, softly, "Eirnae?"
It is then, that she faints.

Ala saw the chain reaction of events almost as if it was in slow motion, she didn't know this woman at all, obviously everyone there did as she heard the echos of "Mum" and "Eirnae" move through the nearly dead silent tent. standing up her wings flared but folded against her back she walks forward after Lenore fainted "Who are you?" she asks plainly as she approaches her fainted friend, after all the eyes of the others may be imagining it's hard to say in her mind
Surion follows after Nani moving to help her mum "Who is that?" he whispers in Nani's ear after having caught sight of the newcomer
Aylana had turned at hte same time as Nyoka, and hte present she had been holding fell to her feet with an audible 'tickle' as whatever it contained shattered and she stared

For those trained to study beings of great speed, their eyes will be able to follow the outline of the darkly clad elven woman as she darts to the side a few inches, but then all sight beyond the supernatural will be lost to view her form as the darkness of the nearby table's shadow swallows her whole. In a blink, she reappears kneeling in a position that will allow her to easily catch Lenore before the vampiress is even halfway through her fall. Out of reflex she cradles the paler woman against her chest, her whole world now found in the details of the face she had feared she would never seen again.
The voices all around them interupt her reverie, and she tears her attention from Lenore's still form to look around at the fuss that she's raised. Oh hells... She really should of thought this manuever out more before executing it. She slides an arm underneath of Lenore to arrange it semi-comfortably in the nook under her knees, the other supporting Lenore's back as she carefully gets to her feet, suddenly not wanting to be on her knees in front of so many people who she has no viable explaination to offer to without sounding a fool.
She scans the visages that are turned her way, her eyes reflecting her emotional reaction to each, the majority being that of a quiet longing for words to come to her, and a warm love that she wishes she could express aptly in front of so many who vied for a meaning to this event. Finally, as her eyes settle on Damien and widen as she takes in his height, the tears come. She has to bury her face in Lenore's hair to keep from breaking out into sobs, gratefully inhaling the scent of her love's shampoo and not caring that it is now intermingled with the faint scent of death that she somehow knows will now always be there.
She regains her composure, though her cheeks glisten like rocks by a waterfall as she says in reply to all of the questions at once in an emotion wracked voice, "My name is Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar, and I am a lost star trying to return from the earth to its sky. I was taken from it unjustly, and for far too long..." She has to stop, to gather air into lungs that quiver with the effort to prevent a deep shuddering sob from escaping her lips. "I need time with Lenore. There is much I wish to say, to all of my family," Her eyes travel to each that she knows and loves, projecting a sincerity that comes to one when they are at the cutting edge of guilt and loss, "But I must say such to her first." She then waits, letting them stop her if they must, but praying with all of the faith she has retained that they will let her go and have the private discussion that she is longing for.
~~~~~~~~~~
There is a soft swish of leaves in the wind to Lucius' right, as if an animal prowls there and is undecided if what they see if worth the trouble of leaping out at it. An answering rustle of grass in the opposite direction announces that whatever the first was, it likely wasn't alone or was being stalked as well.
Of course, the loud mreowl of a war cry from a dappled youngster as she rips out of the grass confirms that both are likely true, as a ball of fur, claws, teeth, and tail collides into Lucius with a playful growl, soon joined by a larger form of sleek fur and a soft, feminine rrrumbling purr. Itzel squeals as Latria noses her flank teasingly, Zephirae and Sentinel both full of joy and thus playful at the sight of the male who Itzel lovingly calls in the language of the humans she couldn't master while a toddler, "Daa-aaddy Lucius!" as she wraps her arms around Lucius' neck and hugs him as tight as she dares without choking him.

Krista leans against her husband as she stood, her eyes blinking rapidly as the tears fell. Long she had believe her sister and dearest friend had left them. And now standing in front of them all she wanted much to race to her and hug her never letting the woman go. She covers her mouth just locking her eyes with Eirnae's for a moment to welcome her home. She knew she would have her chance but for now she knew this is what was needed. Tinania looked up her mouth jumping just slightly. She knew the name, glancing towards her brother then back toward the woman she just stared at her. That was Damien's second mother? That meant is was her aunt also? She shook her head watching her mother as she leaned against Surion. She was so confused and didn't know what to do at this point. Ren looks at Ernia signing the word mother before pointing to Damien. She glances back looking around. She was curious if it meant the other child was also here. Had she grown as well? She turns only when she feels Drac hand on hers. She knew her sister could feel the confusion running though her. Diana was standing behind them both still not to sure of everything and that made her slightly scared. Michelle looks up as well as the paeil as the woman speaks. Michelle tilts her head arching a small brow before going back to shaking the present. She was sure someone would explain later. Right now she wanted to knwo what were in her gifts. ~~~~~~ Mel steps back away from the crowd as she turned her head. No matter how hard she tried a single tear slipped down her cheek. Moving quickly she slipped from the tent as she shifted forms. Her body growing white fur as she fell to all fours. She was ready to take off running away from the manor as well as the estate when a black raven flew out of a tree landing on the ground. The raven watches the large white cat before its form changes. It grew bigger as the wings shifted to human arms. The feather changed to long raven black hair cascading down the back. Dress in all black dark forest green eyes looked down at her. " Come on Melantha you knew it wouldn't last...." Mel shifted back to her form choking back on a sob before falling into the woman's arms. The woman holds her close running a hand though her hair " Its okay dear come on, we should get you out of here, we still have a plan that must be worked on...what do you say..." Mel looks up at her nodding, then buries her face back into the womans's shoulder. " Okay April." she looks back towards the tent making sure no one see them before the crack is heard as they both vanish from the outskirt of the tent. ((The rest of Mel storyline will be taking place in her journal...))

Rinon hugs Krista closer to him, stroking her back as he does so. Over her head, he looks at this Eirnae. She has the same name as his half sister, so he has an idea of just who this elf is.
Damien's other mother.
But, he doesn't allow himself too much time to think about it. He is busy comforting Krista, trying to stem the flow of tears. He can only imagine what she is going through. By the way that Krista reacted, Eirnae and her must have been close.
Because Eirnae's sob tugged at his heart strings, and because he somehow knows, even if he has only known her for a few months, that it is what his sister would want, he nods to Eirnae. His old, wise eyes are full of nothing but understanding. He knows that Lenore would want time to compose herself. And, he doesn't think that Lenore would fall for anyone who didn't present an aura of strenght. So, Eirnae would need the time as well.
Alasseo, who had cried out when Lenore fainted, is being told by Ximena to sit back down, not to overwork herself. For once, the woman shows signs of strength. "Leave me alone," she says, as Ximena grabs her around the waist and holds her in place.
"Leave them be." Ximena says, in elven. "Leave them alone. Look at me." When their purple eyes meet, Ximena nods her head firmly. "Lenore will be fine, and she will be back in a moment. I will explain things while they are gone. With the help of anyone that wants to. Please, mother, sit."
Alasseo nods, her sad eyes turning to Lenore. She drops shakily into her seat while Ximena kneels down beside her, taking her hands in hers.
Nyoka and Damien had both rushed forward when Lenore started falling. Now, though, Damien is holding onto Nyoka. He is not as strong as her though, and he skids a little toward their mums before she stops.
Nyoka's green eyes move to look at Damien's face. She blinks when she sees tears glistening there, and he shakes his head. When his lower lip quivers and tugs at her heart, she is reminded so strongly of him as a younger boy that she gathers him to her, her initial anger forgotten completely. She is reminded of how he, too, must have mourned for a mother that wasn't dead, and how he was just better at hiding it than Lenore. She strokes his hair, before she looks at Eirnae. "Go," she says, her own voice full of emotion.
"Just, hurry back," Damien says in a soft voice, hiding his emotions and the shaking in his voice the best he can. He can't seem to say anything else, and he doesn't want to take his face out from where it is hiding in Nyoka's shoulder.
"Yes, we need to hear what you have to say, as well. . . ." Nyoka says, still stroking Damien's hair.
~*~*~***~*~*~
Lucius's knees loosen, and he rolls back onto his back. All else is forgotten when he holds his little girl in his arms. He laughs, oblivious of the emotions swirling around in the tent behind him. All he can say is, "Itzel," as he rubs his cheek against hers. He hugs her to him as tightly as she does, mindful not to hurt her.
"Daddy Lucius," he says, trying to become familiar with the name, "Has missed his little cub so very much!" He reaches out and scratches behind Latria's ears with affection, as well. "You both are sights for sore eyes," he says softly, before he scans the surrounding area.
Alimus, it follows, has to be lurking somewhere nearby. . . .
Instead, he sees Mel. He is about to call out to her, hoping to talk to her, but she is met by another, and then they both disappear. He shakes his head, a little sadly, before he turns his attention back to Itzel and Latria, and trying to keep an eye out for Alimus.

Ala slowly nods understanding dawning upon her as she realizes that she must be the missing member of the family, the one she'd heard about a couple times over the past year... She nods her agreement to Nyoka and Damien's telling her to go but hurry back.
Surion holds Nani close and firm, his eyes watching the elven woman holding Damien's mother. Or rather... Damien's mother holding Damien's mother... ok that concept is confusing to him, but he deals, more concerned that Nani is ok as he runs his fingers comfortingly along her back
Aylana moves to her sister's side trying to help comfort Nyoka and also Damien, Her eyes are full of concern, confusion, shock and tears... Tears that have yet to overflow and reach her cheeks as she tries to stay strong, if only to give support. She watches the pair of women, her aunts... "Yes... Hurry back, there is much to be heard and told... from all sides" she says quietly her voice filled with emotion
