He sniffed the air around Bastet, smiling lightly at her words of comfort. before turing a gaze to Nelphean.
"we would be most interested in that meeting."
Noting the concerned look from Nel he smiled lightly.
"Kisshy acted the same. became very easily tired, lethargic. We think it is natural to the process of pregnancy. Go on ahead, and be with her. you have both given us much comfort in your presence..and we see the worry of a father to be. Perhaps we will make you something as well. a soothing tea to help a worried mind...if you don't mind it, that is."

"Oh that sounds good, but we should hold out, I have a problem with such things... I compulsively consume them. Lets wait till I am biting my nails. " Nelphean lifted hand, "Still only chewing on one." THe elf chuckled.
"I think you can beat this Beast, he is only part of you, while you are the whole." THe elf smiled, "But alas, my heart years to watch my mate, so I am sorry to part with you... In case you are wondering, Ecara has been in a deep, peaceful sleep for a while, drained from the out put of the magic she dabbled in. She will rise soon." The elf offered.
"Well, I shall collect your gifts, the finest furs I assume, as I don't believe you would give us any less." The elf winked, " Again if I snap at you, it is nothing personal, I am just geting defensive." The elf bowed, and hasitily walked from the room.
((I am dead too... Sorry Cym))

He nodded lightly, and gave the elf a warm smile.
"Until then. we are grateful for your words, and your company. and we are looking forward to seeing the kits again. we thank you for the fish, and for your confidence in us."
He watched the elf leave, and looked to his hand, exending his claws to thier fullest. they beleived in his ability to best the Beast. to be free of all former masters. and this was a master. a colder one, born of himself, and it held the tighest chains.
Then come to me, Cymarron. Come face me in the dark. I am stronger than you. more powerful than you. adn you will not be rid of me. you will hunt for us both. feed me as you feed yourself. there is no answer to your Riddle.
"we will see, Beast, who holds the true strength. they believe in us. Brightsaber, Nelphean, Bastet. Nailah loves us, in the ways that matter most. Raven loves us, our sister in the Hunt. Tyler and Ecara love us. even Elias calls us brother. We will protect them from you."
But who will protect you, from me.
That was a question he couldn't answer..as he moved to his den leaving the half empty bottle of liqour on the table..to dark dreams and the Beast within.

Tyler rolled out of bed and jumped up. He was ready to go. Mommy was still asleep though so he let her be. He wanted to see Mr. Cynammon so he walked slowly out of Niah's room and headed outside where he knew Mr. Cynammon lived. He peeked inside his Den and said softly "Mr. Cynammon? Are you in here?" He wandered inside Mr. Cynammon's den and looked around. He still didn't know why he had made it so much bigger. Tyler saw him curled up and dreaming. He was about to turn around and leave when he realized it must be a nightmare. He walked over and looked at the cat-man thrashing around. Then he gently laid a hand on his shoulder and shook lightly. "Mr. Cynammon? Mr. Cynammon wake up..."

His tail lashed around, snagging tyler by the waist....and his eyes opened wide and dialated before going back to normal..and his claws that had left marks on the stone of his bed resheathed...his ears, then the rest of his head, turning to Tyler..to which he gave a large feline yawn and a warm smile.
"hello, little Tyler. We are very pleased you come to see us. We've missed our kits of late."
and of course, without Raven living in his den, he had gone back to his usual sleeping habit of nudity. the pants often got tangled and uncomfortable when he slept in them.

Tyler jerked in surprise then giggled. "Hey Mr. Cynammon. You were havin' a nightmare so I woke you up 'cause that's what Mommy always does for me when I do. Wanna tell me what you were dreamin?" He was curious and he tilted his head and looked at Mr. Cynammon. "If you don't want to it's ok. I know I'm little but maybe I can help?" he asked hopefully.

"we dreamed of darkness. the beast within. protecting our pack, and those we care about very much. like you and Nailah."
He reached out his hand, and mussed tyler's hair, blinking some of the sleep from his eyes.
"You help us very much, Tyler. We've been lonely with no kits to see us. you are liking your tunic we made, yes? woudl you like us to make you other things?"
His tail moved from the boy's waist, and he crouched on the bed, stretching and letting the fur and muscle ripple from the claw tips to his tail.
"How are you feeling this morning?"
He got up, digging around for his pants in the pile of fur and leather near hsi bed. he'd washed them as well during his trip to teh hotspring to get the blood off of them...and when he found them, he put them on, doing the morning routine jig to get that blasted tail through the hole in the back for it.

Tyler sat on Mr. Cynammon's bed and watched him try and put his pants on. He giggled. "You're so funny Mr. Cynammon." Then he pulled his knees up and wrapped his arms around them, resting his head on his kneecaps. "Cara is still sleeping. I miss her too." he sighed. "And Relda hasn't been up for a while either. I wonder how come everyone is so sleepy now?"

"We wonder the same. Ecara and her family we know have been through a rough time..but nelphean assured us they will be waking soon. we don't know about esmerelda."
The tail finally cooperated.
"funny are we?"
and he stalked over to Tyler, grinning lightly and tickled him some before picking him up and holding him at eye level with him.
"Soon at least we both will have our playmates back. How is your mother doing? and now that we are awake, what would you like to do?"

Down by the vaults, the shadows moved. Malik stepped from the dark, in a tight fitting black leather outfit, the bracers lined with lockpicks and vials of chemicals.
"It has to be here. I must have it back."
At his side was Ebon, the shadow to Malvolence..as he started with the first vault he found, and began to pick at teh lock, ready to use the corrosive chemicals he'd brought to eat through the locks if need be. his eyes were bloodshot, and he occasionally had to stop because of his hands twitching in spasms. especially the right, which had a bitemark in it.

Malik, what are you doing? Why did you not kill those fools when you had the chance, my puppet lead them straight to you...
You are here for the sword, the one that you so callously threw at Cymarron, the one that is as malevoient as I...
I know where it is.

His head lifted, hearing Fenix..and he licked his lips lightly. he didn't know how to communicate back without the blade..but if fenix was in his mind, then he should be able.
Kill what I aligned with you to attain? the only one of that trio worth killing was that serpentine fool. the Conduit I want..and that dog..it's bound to the woman. kill it, I might kill her.
I threw the blade hoping to finish what my fathers work. trap that beast and all the souls in within the sword..all it needs to to drain him of life. but the Conduit's demons made the blade miss..I need it back.

Well, I guess you should try the correct door. Find the five door that are physically seal, it is the one that is least secure. Careful, the elf wizard was bored and trapped the room.
Watch out for the clay golum and the fireball trap.
Then, take that sword and leave. If you leave it here again, it will be destroyed.

Malik began teh hunt, looking through the catacombic area for the doors Fenix mentioned. staying to shadows, moving swift and silent. always alert for others, or now that fenix mentioned it..golums. But his thoughts always moved to the sword. He must have it back. He needed it, longed for it...crabed it in his hand again. Ebon was just a placeholder, a useless thing. perhaps a depository for a soul or power, but that's all. it was nothing compared to Malvolence.

In due time..he found the five doors Fenix told him of. now which one was the least secured. so he picked the five vials he had with him..and tossed one at each door, to see if there was any reaction to them. if that didn't get anywhere..well..maybe the sword or the lockpicks to see how secured these doors were.
"Come on now...give me the one I'm looking for.."
