"what did you do?"<span style="color: royalblue">"i have diverted a portion of your empathic powers temporarily. i will return them all over time but im afraid that there is nothing i could do about that initial shock."</span>"cant you keep it this way?"<span style="color: royalblue">"only if i wanted to endure our combined powers forever and i have enough problems with my own."</span>Relene nodded and sighed. "thank you."<span style="color: royalblue">"of course. actually Ras in my natural form i am nothing but power with a consciousness, same as Elune. oh, i forgot that male, leaving the total number at nine. Sharindia and Amere are both carrying males."</span><span style="color: darkslateblue">"im pregnant?"</span><span style="color: royalblue"> "yes, Ras willed you fertile with the powers he has gotten from Elune and your... you two took care of the rest. you will be giving him another son but this one will be far more Troll then Elf."</span><span style="color: slategray"> "im getting a brother!? great!"</span>Kalian did a little jump of excitement and then smiled as he walked in.<span style="color: slategray">"sisters are nice and all but it will be nice to have brothers. can i have coffee?"</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
