Jetta stood on the porch to the one house NO ONE wanted to go near, the one house everyone was happy to stay away from but her? This house was the family home, technically, this house was once her grandmother and grandfathers home and she wanted to see what she had been missing out on all these years and if she was even going to be welcome into the family so she straightened her bag, took a deep breath and knocked on the door and waited.
"Yes..." said a female disembodied voice.
"Hi, I am Jetta, I came to talk to Shadow, Raven and Lore" she said, starting to feel a little nervous.
"And may I ask what this is about?" Said the voice once more.
"I am their niece, I wish to..." she didn't finish the sentence when the door opened and she was standing there looking straight into the face of a pony that had blood dripping from her eye "er...are you alright?" She asked as she pointed to the blood "that doesn't look good.
"Oh, I am fine, this is normal, can I ask what you are doing here?" She asked as she sat down "you say you are their niece? But my mother, Aunt and Uncle don't have family and I know you can't be wanting to see them to get through to my father because his family has all disowned him and want nothing more to do with him after his awesome mass murders he caused way back in the day with the help of the devil himself, so what do you want with my family?" Rapture asked, not taking her eyes off this apparent new 'cousin' of hers.
"Well" Jetta went on, trying to not feel intimidated by this pony "my father, Order, he is the fourth and final child of the Stoneheart family, when Aunt Shadow started showing her true colors as a child, showing power she should NEVER have had as a child, she was taken away from the family, Aunt Raven and Uncle Lore didn't know much about that time as they were too young however what was going on behind the scenes was that my father, having just been born, was also taken away, adopted out, Morgana's mate...our Grandfather, never wanted him to turn out like Shadow or be like Raven who, after she was born, he took a bit of her saliva and ran a magical test on it, showing that she was going to end up the same way as Morgana. So when the final two children were born they were always told that they had a little brother, not brotherS but brother, they, in secret, told the nurses to adopt the other one out...at least Grandfather did, Grandmother objected but she was sick, she lived till a certain time after this pregnancy but in the end her illness was too great and it consumed her.
During that time she had been defeated and had NEARLY died, Grandfather was the physician at the time and he was sent to make sure Grandmother had died but, at the same time, he had grown to actually LIKE this woman, the raw power, the beauty of her actions, the way she worked, he was against what she was doing greatly, he had never hated someone as much as he hated her and her actions and yet at the same time he couldn't help but love the way she worked, there was art her how she worked and he had started falling for it and the artist herself. Grandfather announced she had died when he felt there was a tiny bit of life left in her and the Elders who had assumed had killed her turned and left and told Grandfather, since he was the doctor he had to take the body away, they didn't care what he did with it, she was dead, that was all they cared about, what power she possessed was no more so they didn't care what happened to the body just that they wanted a pint of her blood for testing purposes and a full report in the morning.
Grandfather took Grandmother away and brought her here, a safe place the Elders didn't care about, if they did they didn't show it, to them, this place was primal so they stuck to their own world but Grandfather had a home here, family, he was from this world but his great great great, great, great, great, great Grandfather was a magical pegasus, he had ties to the Magical Realm and for generations they did not, That family never had a single magical pony in their family, they knew of the history but they never produced any other magical ponys until Grandfather came along and so he accepted it with open arms and his parents allowed him to go study in the Magical Realm and well...you know the rest of that story. So as he ended up being one of the top doctors in the Realm and ended up saving this womans life, he brought her here, made a home for them both and nursed her back to health, they started talking, enjoying each others company blah blah and, in the end, Morgana and Athan had fallen in love and wished to spend the rest of their lives together.
However, what Grandfather didn't know was that whatever the Elders did to Morgana had taken it's toll on her, she was weakened but she had always wanted a family, always wanted to have children of her own, so they proceeded to do just that, he wanted to make Morgana happy and so he helped produce four children, two girls and two boys, two sets of twins, Shadow and Raven were the oldest and out of those two Shadow was older then Raven by two minutes and as for Lore and my father, Order, was the younger one. Order was taken away as requested by Athan and given what he saw of Shadow he asked that his new parents named him Order as for one day he will need to seek out his family and start playing his part in it, he will be the one who can reign in his sister, Shadow, in, I don't know how exactly he knows this and I don't know how it can be true but apparently Grandfather foretold that Order will be Shadow's undoing just like he, in the end, was our grandmothers as after she had nearly been killed she turned over a new leaf...not completely, she was still the evil, b***h that she always was but she was a little kinder towards others, she even got a best friend, Arachna I think her name was, they became basically sisters, within the year she was alive those two did EVERYTHING together, you couldn't pull them apart.
Arachna watched her friend be the mother she always wanted to be, helped her grow a little as a pony and helped out with the children and it was her that took, Order, away when night had fallen so Raven, Shadow and Lore didn't know or see Order, they grew up, got separated and now they are back together and my father wishes to come and see the siblings he never knew about. "
Rapture looked at her as she told her tale and wondered how much of it was true so she conjured up a glass of water and a truth potion and tipped it into the glass and mixed it up "I want you to drink this, don't worry, it won't harm you, unfortunately, but it will make me see if you are telling you the truth" she said as she pushed the glass over to her.
Jetta was used to her fathers potions, this would be no different, but what if this potion was made differently? Oh well, she picked up the goblet and took a mouthful and swallowed it down and looked at her, after a few moments she was in a trance.
"Right, now, I just want one question answered, simple enough, you can't lie as it would be impossible due to how potent that potion is, was everything you just told me about Order and this family correct or a lie?"
"It was correct" Jetta replied.
"Well then" she said as she conjured up another goblet of water and gave her it to drink "drink this" she said as Jetta picked up the goblet and drank it, returning to her old self.
"Well then" Rapture said as she stood aside "come in, let me just..." she stopped when she saw Raven standing behind the door and Arachna standing next to her "er...well...I see you wanted to hear the full story up close" she said as she gestured toward the pony who had just walked in.
Raven looked at the other and sighed "I REALLY didn't want another brother..." she said, sounding a little put out "but come in, take a seat by the fire, just watch out for any blood, not sure if our maid has finished the cleaning of it down there yet" she said as Rapture walked over to the fire.

"I think it is time the family had a meeting" Raven said as she looked to Rapture "go get your father and siblings please" she said as she looked to Arachna "can you please get Shadow and Lore? Lore is in the Magical Realm and Shadow is being Shadow and has gone off to kill some pony, last I heard it near the castle, use the mirror to go through to the castle, she should be around there somewhere, just follow the screams of the pony shes killing" she said as Arachna nodded and left after Rapture.
"Revenant, get in here please!" She called as a grey male pony came into the room, blood all over his face, body and hooves "yes, my lady?" He asked as he bowed.
"Revenant, please can you get everyone something to eat and drink, we are having a family meeting and so that means we are going to need A LOT of food and wine, if need be, just conjure up a spread, it may be easier and quicker" she said as she pointed to dinning room "and do it in there, just make it an afternoon sort of spread and also make sure that besides the wine there is normal orange juice and lemonade as well and please, go clean yourself up, we have company" she said as Revenant bowed.
"Yes my lady" he said as he turned and left.
"Right, now, while we wait, I want to know more" she said as she sat down beside who apparently was her niece and looked at her "I never knew I had another brother, we all didn't, not even a hint of it exists in the Magical Realm records and if my mother did in fact survive after her ordeal then even the smallest hint of her being among the living, even here, would of been on record, how is it that none of this was recorded?"
"Your father had paid greatly for the records being doctored, he wanted to make sure that no word was mentioned about your mother, he did everything he could to keep her a secret but when you and your brothers and sister were born THAT was when they found out as your mothers power, due to her nearly losing her life, was weakened greatly, she could do magic still but what she used to be able to do was no longer able to be done and so they couldn't keep track of it anymore, when someones power is so weak that it is nearly non existent then that is when they don't care anymore and given they thought she had died then they cared even less. But the thing is, it is genetic so even though her power had weakened the genes were still in there to be passed down so when Shadow started showing signs of great power she was removed from your life and Lore was sent away because when he started to show some signs of alchemedic power they, the Elders, didn't want them mixing with you because they thought he could do better alone and grow up to be a good pony and use his powers for good.
And you, Raven, had great power also as Grandfather found out however you were now alone, you saw a few days or weeks of your siblings, got close but soon, once they had left, had forgotten about them, you grew up not remembering them because you didn't spend long enough with them to remember them, you were a child and whatever you thought you knew about these two ponys were probably just fragments of memories that you cared to ignore after a while, thinking that they were not important and given you were going to be powerful in your own right you had other things to worry about. So you grew without them, they without you but in all of this your powers were within you and the Elders could foresee that one day a powerful magic would come back to the magical realm but they had to stop that before it happened so they tracked where it was coming from and found that four children had been born with great magical power and that is when it lead back to your parents, they had realized that Morgana lived so they broke the family apart for safety reasons and whilst this was happening Morgana was getting weaker and weaker and soon, due to the heartbreak of seeing her family be torn apart and the sickness she incurred when she had nearly died thanks to the Elders she just ended up dying but the Elders kept it as a 'she died in battle' sort of thing and so that is what the records say."
"Then how do you know all of this?" Raven asked curiously.
"My father and your brother, Order, he is an Elder of the Magical Realm, not just a small time Elder in Training or whatever like Lady Coven, he is one of the 120 Elders that take care of the Magical Realm and make sure what happened never happens again, Morganas own son is helping protect the Magical Realm and he does a damn good job at it as well" she said, having sat up straighter and looked at her, she was proud of her father, she wasn't going to let this female make her feel anything but, even if she was going to hate it.
Raven sat there, looking at her, blinking, shocked, not sure what to say, her brother was an Elder!? Wait...Raven shook her head and pointed to the bag "proof, must have some in that bag of yours, give me reason to believe what you are saying is true."
Jetta opened her bag and pulled out several documents and handed them to her "this one" she said as she moved several aside "is the Stoneheart family tree, a tree that, when a magical realm citazen has a family it gets created and no one can tamper with the trees, they are magically kept safe by the Archivist and he is the only one who knows how to put on and take off the spell, it is a spell he created and no one, not even the Elders themselves, can break that spell. This Stoneheart family tree goes back millennium, it is one of the oldest families of the Magical Realm which means that it is a founder family, you are a family that has roots in that world so as you can see it is documented, everyone and you now see that Order is there, along with myself and my siblings and mother and" she said as she took out a picture "this is my father" she said showing her a picture of Order, side on full body shot and face on "this is his profile picture he had to have done, I took it just so I could show you.
As you can see he looks EXACTLY like Lore, even the marking, however, Order, my father, uses magic with his Alchemy, he has found a way to fuse both his Alchemy and magic together to make wonderful and powerful things to help the Magical Realm and he has been taught by the masters and so, in the end, it was only time they accepted him as one of their own and so when one of the Elders retired they asked him to be the new Elder and he accepted, he had proven himself to be a wonder asset to those who Govern the Magical Realm."
Raven looked at the picture, she was right, besides the fact that the pony in this picture had both wings he and Lore were identical and she couldn't say the tree was faked even if she thought the photo was, if she know that Archivist he was nothing but thorough, he made sure 200% that when the trees were updated he updated them perfectly, no mistake made, she heard Coven saying something about it ages ago to Lemonade so all she could do is sit there, staring at the two of them, trying to figure out in her mind...well, everything.

Arachna arrived back as Raven was looking over the documents in front of her and she still couldn't quite believe what she was reading.
"Raven, your sister is back but Lore? I couldn't find him, I asked around and even went to Harmonia but nothing, but who I did find was him..." She said as she gestured toward the area where she came from and walking down the stairs, in robes, was the spitting image of her brother...well he IS her brother going by the documents but still, it wasn't Lore, THAT was what she was getting at "wait, back up, why are you here?" She asked as Jetta ran towards her father.
"Daddy!" She called as she ran up the stairs and over to him, nuzzling him "I have missed you!" She said as Order stopped and smiled at his daughter and nuzzled her back.
"I'm sorry, Princess, I just have far too busy these days but I promise it will just be another few days and we, the Council, will be able to go back to our famlies" he said as he looked to Arachna "you were lucky to have caught me, it is my turn to have a two hour break, what we are working on is tedious work we all only are allowed a two hour break a day but I wanted to spend my time alone and at home with my family, I was going to pick up cake and take it home to my mate and daughter so you were just lucky I was walking the streets" he said as he looked back at his daughter "so, how is your mother?" He asked as he walked down the stairs with his daughter.
"Mom is fine, misses you like crazy though, she just wants you to come home soon" she said as she looked to Raven "Raven, meet your brother" she said as Raven just stood there in shock.
"Y...you are...Lore is....HOW can this happen!?" She asked as she looked to the stairs, having heard a crash from up them and down came Lore, covered in dirt
"you are going to need a new venus fly trap...sorta just killed that one..." he said as Raven looked at him after having come out of her stupor and looked at him with a grin on her face "so you ARE a murderer" she said as he nodded.
"What can I say? I Hear it runs in the family" he smirked as he stopped short and looked at the two on the stairs "so umm who are these two?" He asked as he looked at the male, realizing he was an Elder and bowed "Sir, I am sorry."
"It is quite alright, Lore, we are family, no need to be so formal with me" he said as he smiled at the other.
Lore backed up and stared at him as the other turned around "Lore, I am your identical twin brother...at least I would be but I see you had an accident, what happened to your wing?"
"First off, WHAT!? I don't have a twin! My sisters and I are the only Stoneheart family members left, we don't have any other siblings, it has always just been Raven, myself and Shadow..."
"Shadow finally turned around and spoke to the Elder "so it is true" she smirked "when you lot had locked me up in that prison I kept hearing from the guards that there was a Stoneheart on the seat of council, I ignored I, passed it off as them having misheard or something but no, apparently it was true, Raven, myself and Lore have finally gotten to meet our long lost brother and to think, he is just as much an a*****e as that whole government is."
Order glared at his sister "don't start, Shadow, you were taken away because of your powers, we HAD to lock you up, you are nothing but a threat and a danger and I am, like with anyone in the council, meant to capture you and take you back to that room of yours, you are NOT meant to be out and from the looks of things you are far from being reformed."
Shadow smirked "it is a good thing you can't do anything about it then, you lot can't stand this place so you let this place do whatever it likes and since I have come here I have killed many, all this family has except for a couple, Lore included" she said as Raven spoke up.
"Alright, alright, wait!" She said as she got up "Order was it? Come down here, Jetta, the food smells like it is ready, go start helping yourself, everyone else, you are giving me a headache! Now, please, lets follow Jetta and we can talk while we eat" she said as she wondered where Rapture was, surely it didn't take this long to find her siblings and father.
Shadow walked over and into the dining room, following the punk princess and sat down at the table and waited.
"Mom! Daddy is missing!" She said, standing on the second floor and looked down over the railing and her siblings all filed past her "I don't know where he is but he isn't in his usual spots, the babies are asleep so we can leave them but dad isn't around and nor is he visiting his old friend the Devil, it isn't that time of the month, I just can't find him in his usual places, I just can't find him anywhere" she said as she looked at Order "oh sir, please, can you help?" She asked the elder, not really caring if she wasn't formal with him or not, she just wanted her father found.
"I think I can find my own mate" Raven said as she conjured up a mirror and and started looking for him, mumbling a soft spell as she went and finally, it stopped on what looked like and saw that he was laying injured in the forest around by the castle "SHADOW! What have you done!" She growled at her sister, making the mirror disapear and ran after her "what have you done with Phantom!?" She asked as Shadow looked up at her sister and smirked. "Why, whatever do you mean sister dear?" She asked as Raven glared at her "this has you ALL over it!" Raven screamed at her sister as she she turned and looked at Lore "you, come with me and you" she said to Order "are going to be staying here and taking care of this place with Arachna till I get back, touch anything, go through anything and brother or not, I WILL kill you" she said as she ran off out the front door with Lore.
Order sighed and looked at Jetta "remind me again why I wanted to meet these ponys? My life was better without all of this" he said as he walked over to the table and sat down "I guess, since I am here and Raven is not, I will tell you my story and how I am part of this family" he said as he started getting what he wanted and placed it on his plate.

As Raven teleported her and lore to the castle as they ran she conjured up a mirror and looked around for Phantom again, finding him in the forest and ran in the direction the mirror was telling her to go and finally stopping when she met up with him, laying there, an inch from death "oh Phantom! Darling!" She said as she fell to her knees and nuzzled him "please, don't die" she said said as tears started to spring to her eyes "please, we will get you to Harmonia, let a healer take care of you" she said as she conjured up a mirror leading straight to the healers house and levitated Phantom gently through it. placing him on the sofa once he was there. "I am sorry to come barging in but he needs help" she said as she conjured up a blanket and placed it over him "I don't know what happened exactly, all I know is that my sister did it" she said as she knelt down next to him.
The healer was fine about her barging in the thing she wasn't fine about was the fact that the one who barged in was Raven Stoneheart, the daughter of the woman who took her family away, looking Raven over she just turned her back on her "leave" she said, saying nothing more, she wasn't going to forgive this family ever! She lost her family so maybe now Raven can know what it feels like and lose a family member, she didn't care, she just wanted Raven to leave and leave now! Because as far as she was concerned she didn't exist and that means she wasn't going to work on this woman or any of her family because even Raven and that sister of hers had taken over her mothers evil ways and she wasn't going to have it.
Raven looked at the woman, tears falling down her face "please, I beg of you! He is dying and I don't know what my sister has done to him but all I know is that I want this fixed! So please, heal him" she begged once more as Phantom screamed out in pain, something was going through his body but Raven (and of course nor did Phantom) know what that was.
The healer turned around and walked over to the male "I will tell you what is wrong but for fixing him you will have to do that yourself, your father was a great healer here so let us see what you can do for your mate, I will let you use whatever you want here but this will be a test to see if you posses the powers your father did, even a little, lets see if there is even a small remote amount of goodness in you" she said as she checked the patient over and mentally took notes at what was wrong before stopping and looked at Raven. "Raven, your sister has used the same thing the Elders used on your mother, the poison that is coursing through your mates body is set to kill him within the next 12 minutes HOWEVER you can heal him in three minutes if you know what you are doing and given you are part Athan you can do this.
What he needs is an ancient poison remedy and that can only be made out of some of the rarest ingredients which I have here however the boiling for potion is pivotal and the mixing and everything has to be accurate as well so you can do this in time you just are going to need concentration, determination and the knowledge of poisons which I am more then certain you have the knowledge of and the antidotes for them but the Realm has many different poisons and antidotes for many things, as you know, so the name of the poison is Dark of the Night and and it is such an old and ancient potion that no one knows about it anymore. However the thing is those who do are those who come from an ancient family which you do so the knowledge of this potion should be in your memory right?" She asked Raven who nodded "good, it would of been one of the first potions Arachna taught you, she doesn't come from here but she knows her poisons and potions, she has been a friend to the Realm for many years, far longer before she even met your mother, not that she would ever tell you that, but anyway it is now time to try and remember what she taught you."
Raven tried to remember what Arachna told her, she had told her about the poison but did she tell her about the antidote..."got it!" She said as she remembered "but whilst I know what ingredients are needed she never did teach me how to go about brewing them together" she said as she looked around the healers house and grabbed what was needed and placed on the table next to the healers cauldron and she threw a fire ball into the fire to heat up the cauldron, placing in three pitchers of water and went back to getting what else she needed before she finally settled the last of the stuff on the table before the healer handed her a piece of paper.
"Here, the recipe is on this piece of paper, you can do the rest" she said as she walked back and looked at the table "you are missing an ingrediant" she said as she walked over to a cupboard and looked into it and found the missing ingrediant and pulled it out and walked over and placed it on the table "mint, it will take away the horrible taste of the potion, it isn't on the list of stuff you need but your father figured that mint wasn't going to do anything to the potion and so you can add that for little to no effect on the desired outcome of the potion besides it tasting nicer when the patient drinks it."
"Thank you...wait, there is a woman at my house now, Jetta, she said that my father may have saved my mother but the potion slowly killed her anyway, at least, the damage did, will that mean Phantom will..." Raven shook her head as tears began to fall "sorry, ignore me..." she said as she started making the potion.
"It is true, your mother was finally killed because of the damage of the poison even when it was healed but this wasn't what ended her life, your mother was a woman who never believed in trying her potions out on others, she could care less about the world in which we live in but she never, for some strange reason, would get another to drink her potions, she would always drink them herself, she would line her insides with an absorbing potion and then drink the potion so she would get the effects of the potion and yet not suffer any actual side effects of it however she did that a lot and that slowly but surely started to eat away at her insides. The potion to line her stomach worked and it worked great but even her body couldn't take that much torture to it and after a while it slowly started to get the effects of the potions and was starting to slow the body down but because she was bent on destroying this place she never noticed how bad her body had gotten and so, after the last lot of barrier potion and potion she had was about six or seven months before her final onslaught the damage had been done, the potions were already slowly killing her, the barrier potion wasn't as strong as what she first had it all those years ago.
The Elders had come up with a plan, drink the poison and mix it with their magic and then shoot her down that way, only one Elder could do this but they all came up with the plan and hence how your mother was shot down, she wasn't meant to survive but she did, anyway, in the end, your mother died because the potion mix that had slowly started eating away at her and the poison reacted badly, she knew what she was doing, mixing those she knew were safe to be mixed, at least for the most part. However, the poison was too much and so yes, she died HOWEVER if it wasn't for that mix she wouldn't of stayed alive for the length of time she did either after your father saved her" she said as Raven was half listening and half doing the potion, she watched on and softly smiled as she looked over at Lore "Lore, sweetheart, how are you doing?"
"I am doing fine, I need to come see you more often, I am sorry I have been neglecting you."
"You are a Stoneheart, I know family comes first" she said as she smiled at him and conjured up a cloth and a bowl of water "try to keep his body cool" she said as Raven worked.

"Can you please check this?" Raven said as she gestured to it.
"Sure" the healer said as she walked over to it and looked in "perfect! Now, here" she said as she gave her the mint "just three or four leaves should do it" she said as Raven took them and dropped them in "now, put some into this cup" she said as she handed Raven a cup and watched her spoon some into it "a couple of mouthfuls will do it."
"That is it?" She said as she put the mint back and levitated the cup from the healer who nodded and watched Raven go over to her mate and stopped her brother as she lifted up his head and gently pushed the cup to his lips and tipped it up and watched him drink some before placing him back on the sofa and waited.
"Raven, you go back to our guests, I will take over here, I will bring Phantom through once he can move by himself" he said as he looked to the healer "is that alright?"
"Sure, for you, of course, Raven you have a VERY important guest at your place, you best go be with him" she said, winking at her.
"H...how do you know!?"
"How do I not know? He visits me on a daily basis, he IS my grandson" she said as she opened a portal "now go!" She said as she levitated Raven through before closing the portal before she asked anymore questions.
"This would of helped you know, telling her that you are Orders grandmother"
"She will learn soon enough, I am not related to her anyway, her father was my teacher but Order is the adopted son of my daughter and her mate which means that yes, he is your brother, as you just found out today because you happened to end up being in the same place as him at the same time, but other then that, you are new to this learning thing also, you met your twin brother for the first time and you spent two minutes with him before you left, you couldn't even wait, but I know, you just needed to stop a wound from bleeding, I know, but that means you shouldn't be here either, you should be spending more time with him."
"Late, lets just deal with Phantom first" he said as she nodded and let Phantom rest.

Raven arrived back on her front step and opened the door, walking in she started heading over to the dining room where she levitated Shadow from the chair she was sitting in without even realizing it and threw her straight against the wall as fast and as quick as she could and then looked straight at Order "you want to take her in, by all means, do it, I don't care anymore, whatever you and the other Elders want to do with her is none of my concern" she said as she used a gravity spell to keep Shadow right where she was.
"RAVEN!" Order said as he got up and pushed her back with a wave of a hoof and yet kept the gravity spell on Shadow "I will take her in but when I say it should be done, I do NOT take orders from you!" He growled at her as he looked at Shadow "what did you do, Shadow?" He asked as Raven conjured up a mirror and showed him what was going on with Phantom "ask your grandmother, shes minding him now, a grandmother that I would love to hear about when you have the time by the way. Shadow must have done what the Elder did when he used Dark of the Night, she took it thinking she could have it mix with her magic and Phantom was the target for her to use it on for some reason. Either way, your brother-in-law is now recovering from a poison that ended up killing our mother and I don't know about you but right now I want her out of my sight and, if possible, I want her magic taken away from her as well! As the head of this family I want any and all power she has stripped from her body! leave her as a shell of her former self! The other Elders never did that before well now I am saying do it or I will, I know the spell to use and the potion to go along with it but by law I am not allowed to use it, I will happily break any and all magical laws but this spell will end me up getting thrown in jail, regardless where I live and I would rather stay out of that place thanks."
Order growled at Shadow "I don't take ponys in from this realm, you know that Raven, I hate to say it but Shadow is perfectly in her rights to do that HOWEVER considering she DID use a forbidden poison THAT is enough to get her sentenced" he said as he opened up a portal to the jails in Harmonia and levitated her through them and into the nearest one that was open, shut the door and locked it, mumbling a spell in which the lock could only be open by him and then shut the portal. "Now, where were we?"
"Thank you, Order" she said as she walked back to the table and sat down, making the mirror vanish.
"She may be in jail but that doesn't mean she won't get out, you know what she is like"
Raven sighed "I know but at least she is out of my sight, if you left her she would of been killed" she said as she poured herself a glass of wine and drunk it down in one go before grabbing a scone and took a bite out of it.
"Right, as I said to the children, I explained who I was etc so now, I guess, is just the bombardment of questions from you and Lore at least."
"I don't have any" Lore said as he walked through a portal behind Raven and Phantom slowly walked after him "he is going to be fine but the healer did say he needs to be in bed for a day or two just to be completely rested and relaxed and just to make sure his body will be able to start to fix itself after what happened so, Raven, care to take him back upstairs?"
Raven nodded "sure, I will go put him to bed" she said as she walked over and placed a hoof on his and teleported them both up to their bedroom.
Lore let the portal close behind him and went and sat next to his brother and looked at him "I guess it is nice to see one of the siblings make a GOOD name for themselves, apparently our father said that you were to bring down Shadow, so your grandmother has told me, then that you must have the same powers as what Shadow has, our mothers powers, it is actually nice to see a Stoneheart IN the Elder seat then one of us causing trouble, our father was right to send you away" he said as he watched Order get up and smile at him and then walked over and wrapped his legs around him and hugged him. "Not a day has gone past I haven't wanted to meet you, you are my twin, we have A LOT of catching up to do" he said as he kissed his brothers cheek "our father sent me away to keep clear of all this doom and gloom stuff and I am pleased he did but as I grew my mother and father told me what happened, the basics anyway that Arachna told them, it is nice to see that he sent me to a place that was connected to you lot as I was able to keep tabs on you, learn the history more easily etc and the fact that there is now a Stoneheart in the power seat...well, it makes this family needing to behave more then they ever have" he said as he went and sat back down "you Lore, are like me, the only good one but it is I who is meant to be able to reign in our sister so lets see how that goes" he said as he took some food and started to eat.

Raven had placed her mate into their bed and made sure he was comfortable before getting in beside him and snuggled into him "are you feeling alright? Well...I mean, as much as you could be given the circumstances."
Phantom smiled tiredly at his mate as he snuggled against her "you know how I have always teased you about not showing any emotion when it came to you and I? How we may show affection toward each other but at times it feels a little strained, like I know you love me but you go around this place as if nothing effects you, like you have no heart" He said as he saw Raven nod "thank you for today" he said as he kissed her softly. "Thank you for showing me you do have a heart" he said as she softly yawned and closed his eyes "I know you like to think the world should bow down to you and treat you with the same fear your mother had shown toward her but sometimes it is nice to see this softer side of you, you know I love to kill as much as the next member of this family but I also would like, if only between us and the children, that you actually show me that you care for me as well.
Unless we are...you know, it isn't easy getting affection out of you and it does, at times, make me wonder if I should even be here, if I should even bother about you, I don't want you to show you have a heart all the time just more then once every six months, it was such a beautiful sight seeing you cry, you are my dark one, I could never leave you but some thoughts you just have going around in your mind, it isn't easy to live with them and if I follow through with them I know I would miss you and the children greatly." He said as he kissed her nose and opened up his eyes and smiled at her "I will always love you" he said as he closed his eyes once more, yawned and slowly drifted off to sleep, leaving Raven just laying there, cuddling into him.
Raven softly started to cry, thinking of just everything that has happened, nearly losing her mate and more as she just pulled the blankets over them both and laid there just for a little while, deciding that whatever was happening downstairs can wait, she wanted to spend time, if only just for a few more minutes, with her mate.

"Raven?" Someone said, speaking her name softly, making her stir from her sleep and looked up "yes?" She asked a little groggy as she sat up and looked around, noticing Lore was standing over her "hi, Lore, whats wrong?" Lore just smiled at his sister as he held out a hoof and helped her out of bed carefully as he straightened the blankets and left Phantom sleeping "Order has to go but he wishes to see you first" he said as she nodded and straightened herself up before walking towards the door and stopped, looking back at her mate "I will be back my darling" she said softly as she looked at Lore "come, let's go see him" she said as she turned and left with her brother following behind.
Raven walked downstairs and saw Order waiting "you know, this house is beautiful, if there is one thing to say about our mother she had impeccable taste" he said as he smiled at Raven "as for Shadow she will be taken care of but just remember that it won't be much, she didn't do this in the Magical Realm so it will be a small punishment" he said as he saw Raven nod "understood" she said as he opened the door "I am sorry to hear about Phantom but from what my grandmother says he will make a full recovery, you did a fantastic job at brewing that potion, even reccomends you to try more advanced stuff. You don't do advanced potion making do you? You tend to stick to the ones that you know work and that is it" Raven nodded "yes, how did you know?" She asked curiously "because my Grandmother said you told her that Archana didn't teach you the remedy for that poison when Arachna did, Arachna has a tiny bit of magic, not much, she has enough to make potent potions but that is it, this is more a hobby to her then anything more.
She is also not allowed in the Magical Realm because her powers are not strong enough to grant her access but she had lived without it all her life that she didn't care but she did teach you the remedy which means that you just didn't want to keep it inside your head because it was too advanced and, at the time, it was and you didn't want to remember it either because you didn't want to remember the poison that ended up being our mothers final nail in her coffin and that is understandable but my Grandmother said you would be a great potions master if you put your mind to it, you made that potion flawlessly where most who were not at least at my Grandmothers level would fail greatly. My Grandmother wishes you would study advanced potions more because it will work out for your plans as well, meaning that she is against the potions being used in an evil way but she knows our family and knows that your potions would be more effective if they were advanced so study and learn because you have our fathers ability in you as well if you just care to embrace it" he said as he walked out the door and opened a portal to the council "I best be going but I will be in touch, my daughter is talking to Dante, she will leave when she is ready" he said as he looked at Lore "and we will have to catch up later also" he said as he walked through "goodbye" he called as the portal closed.
Raven looked at Lore with a smirk on her face "so, care to help me try out some potions?"
Lore opened a portal and ran through it "sorry, got stuff to do in Ironriver! Back later" he said as he closed the portal.
