<span style="color: #666600">"Surely you haven't wondered why Elerona has no living offspring aside from Karrie and Karren? My first priestess, an Ancient Vrykul woman slays any woman Elerona impregnates. I had a lapse in judgement and told her to spare Karren and Karrie. They taught me I was wrong and Selma continued her bloody work. I have since released her from her duties."</span><span style="color: #ff0000">"I guess it's easy to call yourself a goddess of mothers and children when your mind slave is doing all the dirty work. I think I'll take my son back and see if Ophidian wants him." </span>Nyarien's arm was pulled outward and with a bright flash her son appeared coiled around her arm and cooing happily.<span style="color: #666600">"I don't like using force but... I don't know that I can let them suffer, either. I guess I'll just have to do it and get it over with, I still need to deal with your daughter. The only reason I haven't put her out of her misery is because Ashia cares about her and wants to help her, she just don't know how."</span><br/><br/>While Arlokk was helping Zelina try on new clothes Rayne suddenly appeared in the room beside them, still huddled in a ball but no longer pregnant.<span style="color: #006633">"Why now?" </span>Before Zelina could react she was locked in place and only able to move her head as The'kal appeared before them in her old Trollish body that Zelina would recognize.<span style="color: #666600">"I don't want to do this but I need to do this, so I apologize in advance. This is what's left of your mate, Zelina. Minus the children, I got rid of those. She doesn't talk, she doesn't move from this position, and Susan has to control her mind just to make her eat and drink. Arlokk asked me to look into what happened since Elerona is my daughter. And Rayne hasn't been in control of her own body since about a month after you moved in with my daughter. When she slapped you during your argument you were arguing against Elerona's desires, not your mate's." </span>She looked down at the Elf and lifted her into the air, the once strong Elf shrunken and nearly dead from starvation.<span style="color: #666600"> "The only thought in her head is your name, her heart only beats in hopes of seeing you again. Are you so heartless that you're willing to let her wither away and rot because a god forced their will upon her?"</span>Arlokk tried to interrupt but was teleported away and the doors in the room vanished around them.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
