Nailah hugged Tyler tighter to her and said "Thank you very much for telling me Kisshy. It's important that I know these things. After all they affect any decision I might make."
Tyler squirmed a bit in her arms. "Not so tight Mommy! I can't breathe."
Niah's arms immediately loosened and she felt the little boy shift in her lap.
"Hi Miss Kitty. I like Mr. Cynammon too and he's a real good learner." the little boy gave her a lopsided grin.
Niah's heart filled with love for him. She loved everything about the little one. His grins, his adorable way of messing up everyone's names. His big blue eyes. She loved him so much...almost like he was her own child. She would do anything for him. Anything at all. "I'm being treated like I always am. Some people love me and respect me. Others don't." she shrugged. "It's as simple as that."

Pheaura sighed and began making breakfeast, "What would you care to have for breakfast guys?" She didn't know if she should say anything about what has come to pass. Her friends might agree that she is no good. She was stupid, thus she opened her mouth. "Taig was my friend, or so he played out he was. He took Aura's essence becuase I let him in this place. The Ryo broke off our relationship..."her tears began to fall again. Each time she thout of him, "you and Kellendel were hurt and there was nothing I could do. Rand hates me. I have screwed up everything and I am no good. I finally started a harmless fire yesterday. Its didn't burn, it was an illusion. I put it out as well. Then when I went to bed I passed out. I used more energy than I thought."
She paused to make sure she had covered it all. "On top of that I passed out on the stairs and got a bruise on my head. I must leave for a few days to go after Taig. I may not return. There is nothing here for me. Besides, Kellendel told me that you guys were going home once Bastet and Nelphean had their child."

"I like you too little Tyler. we also heard that Cymarron gave you a special marking...and that you are watched over by the Hawk. I would want to tell you how great an honor that is. in our culture, only the children of very important people are granted such things. like leaders."
He smiled, mussing Tyler's hair, before turning his attention back to Nailah.
"I think I've told you everything I can about him...except one thing. he's making something for you. something that he's even keeping hidden in his own mind from the rest of us. I think it's something very special..probably something we woudl consider a dowery level gift. you'll let me see it when you get it, right? and is there anything you want to talk to me about, get off your mind about this big ball of fur while he can't eavesdrop?"

Kellendel looked at Pheaura, and sighed. He messed up big.
"We live just down the road at Nelphean's billionair's estate." Rain said, "ANd I am under orders to keep watch over Nelphean for my mother..."
"Your mother frightens me." Kellendel said after a moment.
"She frightens everyone... Except Nelly." Rain found that interesting, Nelphean even flirted with Rain's mother... He shook his head not wanting to think about that or those words...
Kellendel laughed, knowing exactly what was bothering Rain. "That was a long time ago, back when he was hunted by Ke'Nel, Sylly and Taria."
Rain looked at Pheaura. "I think you should come back."
"I agree, Xail would be lonely without you." Kellendel smiled, "Not to mention the other single men here."
"You are not much older than a child." Rain laughed at Kellendel.
"You're just jealous because I am an archmage and you are nothing more to your people than a captain." Kellendel was interrupted by Rain's fake cough. "A captain of the Warwalkers..."

Pheaura tilted looked at the ground, "If the only reason that I should come back is to fill the lonlies fantasies than I shall not. That is not good enough. I screwed up to many times to be forgiven. I would have come back for you, but you are both leave, so what reason is there for me to stay?"

"I can think of four reasons. Elias, Raven, Cymarron and Aurahkah."
The spirit just watched, with slight interest, the elves. and wondered as to the tea cymarron had given them before.

Pheaura turned to the spirit, "Elias doesn't need me, neither does Cymm. They are all about their sister since she came to the manor. We barely talk anymore. And Raven hates me. I have tried apoligizing and being nice, and being civil and nice, but it doesn't work. Aura is almost dead becuase of me, thus she would be better without me around. I am an angel but I do not help...I cause problems." She quickly finished the pancakes and laid them at the table. "And Kellendel and Rain pretend like they are interested in me. They are great friends and I wouldn't want to be withiut them, but they flirt with anything on two legs and breasts. My only hope of a relationship or love ever again is lost. I give up on everything now. All that matters is Taig's death so Aura can be restored."

Tyler grinned happily and then ran his hands back through his hair trying to get it somewhat in place. "Cara does that too..."
Niah looked at Kisshy for a moment. "Making something for me? Of course I'll show it to you...when he lets me see it." She got lost in wondering about what it could be and finally she pulled herself from her thoughts. "No I dont' think I have anything else to ask you about him. Thank you so much for talking to me Kisshy and I hope we talk again really really soon. Now if you'll excuse me...this little one needs a bath." she said grabbing Tyler around the waist. She lifted him as he was still light enough for her and slung him over her shoulder.
Tyler laughed and shook his head "But Mommy..."
"No buts. You promised to do it without a hassle. Remember?"
Tyler thought for a moment and then he did remember. "Ok. Bath time. And then I have to practice my writing right?"
"Yes." She said as she carried him into the bathroom.
"Bye Miss Kitty." he called out.
"Bye Kisshy." Niah echoed and they disappeared into the bathroom where the sound of running water was heard moments later.

Rain nodded. "Friends are often all we have when the dust settles."
"When the last spell is cast, and all that remains is oneself. We wonder was it ever worth the effort to learn in the first case." Kellendel refered to the fact spell casting takes years of experience, but often can leave the wizard helpless when the invintory is empty.
"If you don't come back, then we will never see you again. Nelphean is my friend, he lives here, and wont leave anymore. Which means, if I wish to see my friend and teacher, I must come here." Rain said with a slight lure.

Cymarron's head nodded..and a light shift in poise, balance..and a flickof the ears, and Cymarron was himself again.
"She sure can talk.."
He heard running water..and stretched lightly, before moving over to the bathroom door. Was Nailah bathing? or was Tyler getting a bath? he smelled them both...but sat by the door.
"Nailah..are you bathing..or is little Tyler getting a bath?"

Bastet sat playing with the frayed end of her tail, picking at the end of it as it twitched trying to get out of her reach. Repeatedly, she ran her hands down it to try and smooth out the fur, only to have it poof out again. With an angry sigh she sat back, still where she had been for quite some time just silent and ultimately content. A smile went to her companions Nelphean and Aurora as she silently watched them.

"Don't stop playing with your tail on my account, not that I was watching..." Nelphean said after Bastet stoped figeting. "How are you today?"

Nailah heard Cymarron's voice and looked at Tyler who was splashing in the tub. The front of her dress was already soaked and he hadn't even been in for five minutes.
"Mr. Cynammon.: Tyler splashed happily.
"Get your hair wet and stop splashing Tyler! Look at me."
Tyler did and giggled. "Mommy is all wet. IO'm just helping you take a bath too."
"It's not time for me to take a bath yet sweetheart." She turned towards the closed door and said loud enough for Cymarron to hear. "I'm just bathing Tyler Cymarron. You can come in if you want to.Btu at your own risk. It's a war zone in here...and you'll get soaked."
Tyler splashed again and shook his wet head, droplets of water spraying everywhere.

Pheaura put the pancakes on the table, "Here you guys go, last breakfast made by me for a while, or ever." She sat at the table and helped herself. "Why is it I always have to ask after you then?"
She didn't know if she wanted to get into the cause of all this, she really didn't feel like talking about love. How she was brought up on it, and soul mates. Thiings she was now learning were ideals. She was brought up believing that she would fall in love and be loved in return. But now she knew love was a flase hope

Bastet's ears flicked in Nelphean's direction to acknowledge him. Once more she tried taming the tail with a mind of it's own, but she lost. Turning her whole head to Nelphean's face, she tilted it to the side, "Oh sure, like you would not watch me," She smiled and said tail flicked at him, "I am not tired anymore, which if anything is a miracle. And I was trying to fix my tail thank you very much. How are you Nelly?"
