Ras stopped what he was doing and looked back at his son for several moments. "It varies from person to person. Some people are ruined by it, some people find a thrill in it, and then people like me who did it because it was their job and had to or else they'd be killed. I never enjoyed it, but a job was a job and it was my only option." Shaking his head he returned to their meal preparation. "I said the same thing about a week before meeting Amere, I never imagined I'd have this many women in my life or that I'd have any children."<br/><br/>The'kal sat up and folded her arms but remained straddling the dragon's waist.<span style="color: olive"> "Actually, Gretcha's soul is locked away and in Moya's possession. There will be no afterlife for her, but we aren't going to let her just go to waste, either. Her soul will be recycled and used to create new life." </span>The goddess nodded smirked.<span style="color: olive"> "Yes, my mate. I'm not making any claims, yet, but if you become mine Ras will never be able to harm you and you'll no longer have to worry about walking on egg shells around him. Terms? You sound like a real business woman, well, you and your daughter will have my protection, as will the children you have with Vyre. You will be free to do whatever you want, really, it's really just for the sake of adhering to the Trollish rules." </span>She shrugged a bit and smiled.<span style="color: olive">"I spent almost a full week rewiring your entire body, and besides, how is this any different from what you did with Vyre? The day you met her you were talking about knocking her up. Like I said before, I'm very pent up, I'm also the goddess of lust and fertility, I haven't had a child in... almost twenty years now? I want to have another, it's something that's always eating at me but I've never found someone able to handle my pent up lust and give me strong offspring. Think of it as you and being normal, you can live as you are just fine, but there's still that part of you that always wishes you were a regular drake. You are loyal, powerful, and your lust burns almost as brightly as a harpy's." </span>She laughed quietly and shook her head, her tail flicking a bit.<span style="color: olive">"I'm not, don't worry. I don't go into heat, I just figured you'd respond better to me being more direct with you so there was no room for confusion. So let's recap so you can get busy. You take Ras far away and leave him with Vyre so they mate, you come back to me and we mate, I grant you and your daughter my protection and we live happily, and lustily forever more."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
