Phelan growl got their attention and two of them turned to face him while the other still remain occupied with Naldany. Her owl flew in first and started clawing at Naldany's attacker.

Phelan charged forward striking the first priestess in the stomach slicing deep through her soft flesh. She started screaming in pain as he swiftly retracted the sword and she fell in a heap. Phelan spun to his right letting his arms lash out in a wild arc as he did so. The priestess narrowly escaped his blade but she didn't see the folly of her manuever until it was to late. Phelan hadn't intended to hit her with the blades he merely wished to back her up to trip over the corpse behind her. as she fell Phelan plunged a blade through her neck. He then darted back toward Naldany who was laying the third woman to the ground as Phelan advanced. Phelan wiped his blades on one of the squirming bodies dresses and sheathed them. He ran to Naldany embracing her.
" Are you alright my love? " Phelan said as he visually inspected her for wounds.

" Only got one cut .... hurts a bit more than I thought they would... quiet a family huh? Naldany got up and walked over to one of the bodies, she wasnt dead yet. Naldany put her hand on her head then drew her sword. She then rolled her over to look her right in the eyes. "Some family .... You wasn't counting on him showing up did you?" Naldany plunged the sword into her finally killing the woman. Then what she did took hold of her, she took her first life, with her bare hands. The thought sicked her and her head swirled from the sight. She went pale and collapsed, her owl fell to the ground and turned into a puff of smoke that went back to her. Nikkii and Aduan came around the corridor to intime to see her fall. Nikkii rushed to Phelan.
" Phelan what is going on here... " Nikkii looked at all the bodies laying around.

Nikkii talking to him almost made him miss Naldany falling, but he caught her at the last moment. and scooped her into his arms. He turned to Nikkii.
" This rable was trying to kill her something I will not let happen, ever. So I helped take care of it. She has only a minor cut but I think the excitement has caught up with her. " Phelan said to her and nodded to Adaun as he walked closer to them.

" I don't want her out without an escort anymore .. no doubt these harlots wanted to gain power from her death. Phelan please take her back to her room and watch over her."
Nikkii looked him in his eyes then to her niece's arm.
" She will be ok.... and I will take care of this mess in the morning. Adaun we are off to the armory then your new room. .... Oh Phelan check the room to make sure their is no danger in there one of them loved hidden poison traps in poeple's chambers."

" Yes, Lady Nikkii " Phelan said inclining his head indicating a bow. He turn and carried her toward the room. He kissed her as she lay unconcious in his arms. He set her down gently across from the room and opened the door ever so carefully, nothing happened.
He walked around the room glancing about, but he knew he had been in here almost up untill she was attacked. Phelan went back and gently lifted his wife and carried her to the bed. He painstakingly changed her into her nightgown with out waking her and tucked her under the covers of the bed.
He smiled as he stood over her looking at her, he kissed her forehead and blew out the candle next to the bed so it was dim in that part of the chambers. He pulled up a chair near the door and sat watching Naldany.
He hoped that she could handle what had happened, he had no idea if she had ever killed anyone before. It is a hard and somber thing to have to deal with and to do. he thought, reflecting back upon his battle with Aramis. He smiled as he sat there watching her, she would be ok.

He nodded to me? Why? What an odd man, maybe he has accepted that his death is soon coming and there is little he can do about it. Maybe he is still trying to act like he understands. She thought as she followed Lady Nikkii down the hallway.
Soon enough. First she would take care of those that had wronged her and they were right here all of them, under one roof. She saw all of their faces as plain as day, she felt the tears that rolled from her eyes from the pain and from the fear. She remembered waking up and vomitting repeatedly and feeling dirty no matter how much she cleaned herself. Oh yes, they would all die and then the biggest trangressor of all would pay, Phelan.

" I should go to that girls home and kill her child and husband that way there won't be any revenge seekers .."
Before long they was at the armory and the night attendent was about to fall asleep at his post. Nikkii informed him of what was going on. He nodded and took out armor ment for a female's use. What made this stand out more was its blue hue and cape attachment. Adaun took the armor from him and followed Nikkii. Nikkii only went a few doors down from the armory and opened the door.
" This room belonged to your predecessor... The family dinning hall is down the corridor and to the right, only the upper members of the O'seths dine there. I will come collect you in the morning for breakfast till then enjoy your night."
Nikkii slowly closed the door and left her to her new chambers. Nikkii went back to her own chambers and went to sleep.
Morning came and she had her duties to do as the head priestess of the house. She dressed herself and fixed her reddish hair. When she went out the youngest ackolytes was standing ready at her door. They greeted her as they are suppose to and followed her outside to begin the morning ritual outside the church. Nikkii gave them there instuctions on how to perform it them watched them do it themselves. After it was over she sent them back to their quarters where the lower members ate their meals and slept. Nikkii remained outside a bit longer looking into the water surrounding the church.

shalandra watched Lady Nikkii and the acolytes in there studies.
why is she dealing with these children, isnt there others who can do that for her. she thinks to herself.
once she sees that they have all gone she approaches Lady Nikkii.
" Good morrow Lady Nikkii, i do not wish to take much of your time so i will be brief.
i have this scroll that you may be interested in and if i am correct you will be able to do something for me.
if you can do this you may keep the scroll, if you arent interested then i will have to find another to do the task. "
shalandra steps closer to Lady Nikkii and holds out the leather pouch with the scroll in it. she makes sure that there is a respectible distance between her and the Lady.

" Let me see that then."
She took the leather pouch from her and looked the scroll over. A smile came over her face as she looked to Shalandra.
" This is a ressurrection spell but not an ordinary type.... I'm interested but what is its purpose?

" i know of a body that needs to be resurected, it has been dead for awhile now, my question to you is will you and that spell be able to do such a resurection.

and in exchange for this resurection you get to keep this spell and i get to bring back someone that will be of some help to me"

" Very well child ... You have a deal .. bring me this body you have and the items that will be required."
Nikkii puts the scroll back into its pouch and hands it to Shalandra.
" You know where to find me."

she is smiling as she aproaches the coach.

Adaun barely slept, she was up far earlier than she intended to be. She decided she would meditate and sat on the stone floor with her legs tucked underneath her. Adaun came out of her meditation feeling refreshed and confident. She stood and dressed in the armor that had been given to her. She polished it furiously so that it shined and the cape was crisp and straight. Adaun had taken another bath before she dressed and had brushed out her hair and tied back her golden hair with a blue strip of silk. She sat waiting for Nikkii as she had been instructed to do.

Phelan had remained diligent almost all night, in the wee hours of the morning he fell asleep in the chair in front of the door. His hands still resting on the hilts of his swords.
