"I'm cursed but not like you, Lady, Kaira. My power comes from my family...they are with me always even though I can never join them," he said as he stared into the depths of the pond, the blood forgotten.

Alys was sitting by the creek, down aways from the two other's. She heard their voices but paid them no mind. Her own mind was buzzing with questions and thoughts. Who would this mansion go to, now that the Lord had died? He had no son's or daughter's to inherit it, though she worried that she might bear his child soon. So who now would take care of the mansion and see to it that it didn't fall apart? 'I guess time will tell' she thought sadly, looking at the flowing water's of the creek.

Maxxim turned from Kaira, leaving her with her thoughts as he turned to thoughts of his lost family. He walked down the creek almost in a daze as he remembered drawing the final rune...Dagaz, the crossroads and then the explosion of power surging through him. When he awoke, his home had been all but destroyed. His parents were lying at the steps, dead without a mark on them. He had lost his mind for a time as he learned what his spell had done. None of his line still lived. He had destroyed his family root and branch.

"Hmm...I see, my family....well who knows?" She shrugged slightly and then yawned softly.

He stopped, her voice bringing him back to reality. "What brought you here, Lady Kaira?" he asked as he looked around at her. "You seem to have plenty of style and grace. You would be well received in the outside world," he said as he tried to clear his head.

"I have no interest in the outside world anymore..." She shook her head slowly. "I have a dark side too....just not showing it at the moment."

"I came here to looking for a reason to live...even thought I don't have any other option," he said bitterly. He resumed his spot on the rock, as he looked at Kaira. "Would you care to tell me what made you decide to come here?"

"Longing I suppose..I feel at home here for some reason." She says in a domonic voice and her eyes flash a bright red.

He watched her eyes change along with her voice. He didn't feel at home here. He hadn't had a real chance to develop any feelings about the mansion yet. "Then that is as good a reason as any. Is this your dark side that you were speaking of earlier?" he asked, mildly interested.

"Indeed so...hmm someone else must be here." Her voice wavers slightly and she looks around with her red eyes.

Maxxim's gaze returned to the calm waters. It didn't matter if someone else was nearby. This person would either leave them alone or come closer. "Why would your dark side come out at the approach of another person?" he asked quietly.

She looked to him and smiled, "It just does...I've never been able to control it like that....or it's because this place is dark...like people's souls." She said as she stood up and looks to some trees.

He turned to look at her, his gaze as calm and undisturbed as the pool. "This place is dark...just like the entire mansion. It is all tainted but that doesn't matter either. I heard that the former master of the mansion is no more. Do you know anything about that?"

As Alys sat there, she drew her knees up to her chest and rested her chin in between the two legs. Her conflicting thoughts still continued as she sat there. Soon she would have to return to the mansion. At least she wouldn't have to sleep in the cages, which brought up another problem. She was no longer a slave, yet she wasn't a mistress either. Where was she to sleep?
