Ashia looked up from her work and deep into Vyre's eyes.<span style="color: #404040">"i love you more. you made me a promise and you kept it and that means so much to me... i know our first child will probably be grown and have children of their own before your scars will ever let you accept that i really am devoted to you but that is one challenge that i look forward to. i would give you a hug but then i would get blood in your hair and Anna would pout and no one wants to see such a heartbreaking sight." </span>she held up her bloody hands and then resumed chopping meat.<span style="color: #404040">"is Chiren coming back for lunch or is it just the four bottomless pits?" </span><br/><br/><span style="color: #5900b3">"and i am recovering from the death of my husband so i have no patience for anyone else's problems."</span>her eyes narrowed a little and bared her own fangs.<span style="color: #5900b3">"i suggest you never say that to me again. i devoted my entire life to her and i will not be blamed alongside failures like Vyre and Ras. she didn't trust me to raise Cenarius. Ras didn't trust me to raise Relene. Ysera wasn't there to protect Cenarius and Ras failed Relene before she was six months old. what was i supposed to do when the child was in Booty Bay? i didn't murder her people, i tried to protect them. i did the best i could but unlike Vyre i wasn't given the power to fell mountains and topple gods."</span>she picked up her tea and ignored the wine entirely.<span style="color: #5900b3">"you are not a normal Troll. you are Timelost which means you haven't slaughtered my people and you are Ras which means you are beyond my power. being rude or hostile will only make my life worse."</span>she shook her head and set her tea down.<span style="color: #5900b3">"i have no intention to seek out either Eternal. Elune is gone, my time as her High priestess is over and so is my duty to her people. i am free to settle down and live here with Crimzon." </span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
