"Hey you two, sorry I haven't been around at all today. Our friend Ashia was up to no good because she got herself tangled up with all the wrong people." He smiled to Sharindia and shook his head. "It's a long story and less of it I have to tell the better, right now I want get this lake water off of me and relax with you for a while. Surely you wouldn't be opposed to me joining you in the shower?" He nodded and rubbed Amber's head. "You're doing excellent, if you like reading I'll definitely go and get you some more books to read the next time I go out. Same for you Kalian, though I'd probably get you something that isn't math. Oh and speaking of which, you and Relene may start seeing the same tutor... I'll probably have to throw Elune off a cliff and make a break for it when I tell her, she will not be happy. It's an old orc, in case you were curious. Anyways, I'm filthy and I need to speak to your mother in private so Sharindia, my love, would you come with me? We have much to discuss and I feel rather disgusting."<br/><br/>The'kal frowned and held one finger over her lips.<span style="color: olive">"Oh hush, we're in a rather nice restaurant, let's not get ourselves kicked out before we've had our meal. Despite all the interference in Trollish lives by the Loa and surprising amount care very little about the daliy lives of trolls, but I'm sure there's a few we can earn the ire of in our time together." </span>She grinned a bit and shook her head.<span style="color: olive">"There are many women who want children without having to give themself to a man, even for a night. I bet in... oh let's say a month, you can have five women pregnant in five different parts of the world, without spending gold on anything but food and hotel rooms. If you don't, then we'll let you get a pet to keep around the house."</span>The goddess shrugged and smiled to the waitress when her glass was refilled.<span style="color: olive">"He's a fairly sensible man, still a coward, but sensible. But Vyre is staying with him for the time being, so be wary of her. She likes Ophidian and finds it easy to spill her her heart out to him... which makes her fairly unstable. And I don't think I need to tell you how dangerous she can be."</span>She nodded and took another sip.<span style="color: olive">"Good, I expect to meet her within a week. Or be told tales of how you put down a beast in misery, I really have no idea what a wyrmkin-troll mix would look like. Could be terrible and worthy of a mercy cleansing."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
