Perplexed by this youth, she took her hand and helped her up, "You don't seem to understand child, I am Goddess of the Underworld, I can't decide who lives or dies, I can't even take someone as my slave. You seem to believe I am some evil witch or something, my duties are important to me, they protect and remind me why I must not be part of my destiny, I'm sorry but your father death must happen and nothing you can say will stop me."<br/><br/>Rubbing the girl's bare flesh she had a thought, "This I can do though..." slowly a glow of white came from her hand and as it touched the bruised flesh the cuts slowly healed over leaving nothing, "I can't do anymore than that, child."<br/><br/>Walking over to the father, she lifted his head, "Arik you can rest now for good, your daughter apologizes for your suffering and I understand."
