Lonnie waved Order off and stopped to look back at the house.<span style="color: #b3b300">“Leeta, I don’t know if you can hear me, but we’ve left your house. And nobody will come back unless you ask for us.”</span><br/><br/>Ras tilted his head just slightly. “I cannot be blamed for what happened to Kitori, but I can tell you that she’s welcome in our house and has taken to cuddling with all of the children. She has made drastic improvements and I couldn’t be more proud of her. And I’m going to ignore the irony of you calling anyone else a monster, especially a traumatized child like Relene.” He glanced past her then back to her but didn’t seem bothered. “Nobody is persecuting you, and you’re putting a target on your own forehead and crying victim. I haven’t taken any children from you. I can’t be blamed for your son’s behavior, I can’t be blamed for you inability to take care of Chiren or her siblings.” Ashia would detect terrified cries from many of the people in her village, but no obvious source could be identified. “Get out of your life? You’re sitting on my land, your children come to me, Vyre would happily take her child and ever see you again. I don’t ever interact with you unless it’s through Chiren so stop acting like I’m some kind of boogeyman always out to get you. I don’t even think about you. But you misunderstand my intentions, I want peace with you because I don’t want our children seeing us feud like this.” Ras lifted up his cup of coffee as the table buckled under Ashia’s weight and the fire consuming it. “You seemed to enjoy my mother’s cunt until she got bored of you.” He sipped his coffee and and stared into her eyes. “I would love to see you try to fight Rachel. Even I fear her powers. I forget that you’re a child still… I have not put myself into your children’s lives. They come into my house and I watch over them until their parents pick them up. That is all I’ve ever done so stop acting like I’m doing something nefarious. You want them to stay away from me? Be a better parent, make them want to stay home with you. You’ll only earn their spite if you trap them in your home. And I let Rachel know you’re plotting to take her son away. So I hope you know how to harvest wood for your village. I can’t imagine she’ll be too cooperative with you in the future. I stay off Northrend, you stay out of Mulgore. Chiren, Belith, and the other three are free to come and go as they please as they’ve formed friendships with my children. But no more hatchlings will visit my house. That’s what I’m offering you. We never see or speak to each other again and I’ll try one last time to talk some sense into Vyre to make her see that you’re the best thing to ever happen to her.”<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
