"I think I'm getting a pretty good idea, you may be a lot of things but you're not very good at hiding your emotions from me." Ras watched closely as she removed her shirt and was all to happy to tend to her chest. He slid his hands from her butt up to her chest to massage each breast slow while covering them in kisses. "Mmm, tell me. Will these get bigger with your pregnancy or do harpies feed their chicks like birds?"<br/><br/><span style="color: purple">"Well, maybe a bad spell or something that will hurt you in the future? I don't know, it seems weird that she would come here to kill my children then give you your old body and leave without conflict."</span>She shrugged a bit and smiled.<span style="color: purple">"As long as you're happy I'm happy."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: olive">"She's a mortal, technically. You have no right to interfere with her and her motives are... not evil. She's a zealot, but when she's not slaughtering my descendants she's a priestess... was a priestess. Was one of my first priestesses, before I learned how much power was too much to give." </span>She shook her head slowly and created a small orb of energy then let it roll down the mountain, carving a clean path in a snake-like pattern as it went.<span style="color: olive">"I can't, I can't even look at her without being overwhelmed with guilt and pain. I know what I did was right and it saved her, but it still hurts as much now as it did when I first did it. Elerona would forgive me, and I'm sure she'd happily accept me into her life but she has parents, I hand crafted them, they raised her and cared for her, I couldn't convince her that I was her mother." </span>She nodded and stood up to put some space between her and the new path she made in the mountain. A large basin appeared and began to fill with dimly glowing water that eventually began to trickle down the path in a slowly moving river.<span style="color: olive">"Then feel free to observe her, and you have my permission to subdue if you find her getting too bold with her powers."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
