He snorted, before shaking his head. "I didn't, Jennu. I just couldn't visit. I watched, and still do, and if you need me, just touch the amulet and say my name to activate it. When I answer, I am free to talk. If you want me to visit, ask, and I will be honest about it. Harder to say no when someone is asking."<br/><br/>He left her the bottle, before tilting his head to the side and nodding. He stepped out of the door, and looked up at his two daughters, considering his words for a moment, before speaking, just for a change of pace. "I know it won't mean much, if anything at all, but I am proud of both of you."<br/><br/>He bowed slightly to his daughters before heading out to the wilds, only going a few hundred feet before meeting up with his constructs, who hadn't headed back like he had said, not that it surprised him, and portalled out, back to the domain. The emergency was minor, but did require a command decision to either leave the growing taint, steal the amulet, or kidnap the user and steal the taint. After a moment, he decided on the third, though in the night, and an avatar would be nearby to scan their memories, to determine what the taint would be used for. Once they found it was a child, wanting a playmate, they returned the child, who didn't wake at all during the ordeal, and confiscated the amulet, replacing it with an empty locket. That done, he settled back down, and waited for the next emergency.
