<span style="color: #666600">"I know, and I'm sorry but this is important."</span>The'kal blinked in surprise at Elune's reaction and sighed quietly.<span style="color: #666600">"No, I want less Eternals. I want to make our race extinct, but I also don't want to lose you. Even if I mean nothing to you I still care for you and your well being. Your memory hasn't been butchered, it's very much intact, I promise. But you've been through so much trauma in your life we had to block off some of the more damaging memories so you can recover. It's only a temporary measure."</span>A searing pain ripped through Melody's very being as The'kal glared at her with a barely restrained fury. She moved over and placed on hand on Elune's shoulder.<span style="color: #666600"> "I am her friend, not her owner! Please, Elune. Hear me out, I know I haven't been the best to you and your family. Nobody is going to breed you like some kind of show horse, I have... I have a plan for that and when we reach that point we can discuss it, but it's my hope that you can have a child with Sahra or Muse, or both. And in doing so you'll never have to risk losing them to old age or mental decay. Let's work on your people's afterlife for right now, we can work with them to make sure your people are still taken care of after they die and I'll talk to Order about seeing if we can prepare your mates to give you Eternal children."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
