Ras took a firm hold on Sharindia's chin to make her look at him as he shook his head. "I am a parent too, and I would expect nothing less than for you to come after me like a banshee if I did anything permanent to her. If the conversation got to the point where flaying her mind would be the only option I would know it had been a lost cause long ago and leave, as much as I hate it she cares for Ibara better than I can and I won't take that away from her." He released her and let out a sigh. "I'm going to try sitting down and talking to her like an adult, her answers will decide whether or not I give Ibara the son she's so badly desired. Your... journal entries about Vyre when she was younger have left me with questions about her, questions I want her to answer for me."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
