" You are right the child is my assurance ... and I will be its primary teacher. Surely you didn't think he would have a hand or you.. in its upbringing."

Phelan stepped around the corner and glared at Nikkii.
" Go then, just remember you live because I let you. I gave you your life. I promise you, mercy will not be shown to you again by my hand. You ungrateful, heartless, selfish wench. Do what you wish, but if you push me, if you take away all that I hold dear you will unleash something that you can't imagine. There are depths to my heart that you cannot fathom, so go on and continue in your arrogance, treat me as you have been and take my child from me, there will be wails from the O'seths house that have never been heard ever in Neriak, nor will be heard again. "
Phelan's words lingered in the cold icy air, like a forboding darkness creeping slowly forward. Phelan flashed a wolflike predatory smile and then helped Adaun through the gates to the village. He knew that Nikkii would need their help in some way weather she would admit it or not. He had to get Adaun healed and then be on his way to Neriak.

Nikkii was becoming more frustrated with herself as she thought about her last confrontation with the denouncer. This time he would be expecting her to come in all alone and attempt to expell him from the church. Powerful as she may be she knew the guards would prove too much in the numbers they held and the spell casters could kill her if she was reckless.
" Wait... time is growing shorter and I will need you."

The gaurds readied themselves for their departure, they was the most seasoned of guards but the two spell casters would make up for their inexperiance. Among them was the guard that stood with Phelan on his first day as an O'seth. The denouncer gathered his remaining casters.
" Naldany's pregnancy must be sped up I want her able to birth out my great-grandson within 5 weeks. I will be taking the other Naldany with me to the counsil meeting."
He reopened Darlena's door and awoke her. She rose up and put on a evening dress and took the Denouncer arm as they walked to where the counsil will be gathering.

Phelan walked on with Adaun as if he hadn't heard Nikkii. Somethings had to be taken care of first. Then there was still Kalysta, what to say to her? What to do? He thought as he walked back to the healers place.

" Don't you walk away from me like that.... Please listen to ..." Nikkii stopped herself when she noticed that she had said please in the first time in many many years. She walked back in behind them and found a place by a fire and sat silently till she could find a way to regain her self composure.
" The time I spent with humans has made me weak... no man could refuse anything I said.... no matter how subborn he was, Nikkii your getting old."

Adaun looked over her shoulder at Nikkii. She could see the frustration plain on Nikkii's face as Phelan continued walking. She was suprised at how callous Phelan was being all of a sudden. I guess he has a right she has treated him horribly, she thought as she looked at him.
"Phelan... Listen to her, we will need her help. " Adaun said quietly, Phelan just looked to her and smiled.
The healers looked to her and smiled, they began chanting and a blue light surrounded her. A chill ran through her, she shuddered. As soon as it had begun it was over and she felt great. Phelan turned to her and spoke.
"Stay here until I get back, I have some things to take care of. When I get back we will leave. " Phelan said to her.

Nikkii watched Phelan and she waited till he left Aduan to get up and follow him. She kept her arms folded as she walked up behind him.
" Phelan will you speak to me ... in private."

Phelan stopped and turned to Nikkii, his jaw set and clenched. He wouldn't let her continue treating him as if here were nothing more than an insect. She would either respect him or not talk to him anymore. He sighed wearily before he spoke.
"What would you like to speak to me about Nikkii? "

Nikkii takes Phelan and slides her arm under his gently. She smiled at the confused warrior and took him out of view from everyone.
"I ... am sorry for the way I treated you... It has been years since I have trusted any man. "
Nikkii ran her hand along his chest and shoulder ,then leaned him forward.
" I have never really hated you.. I just wanted to see your true behavior... I am starting to like what I have seen ... but how did I get here? You throw out blame to me but no explanation why. You are far to quick to anger maybe its because you never was taught to apprieciate a woman of my house's standing... Naldany pretty as she may be pales to me in beauty, grace in skill. Time is short for her so you must help me get her back.... but first."
Nikkii pushed Phelan back and kissed him.

Phelan drew back away from Nikkii keeping her at arms length. Phelan lowered his gaze on her. What was she thinking? Phelan thought.
"Nikkii I am Naldany's husband, does that mean nothing to you? " Phelan said in a disgusted tone. "If all you wanted to do was grope me, I have more important things to attend to"

" What are you attending to? What do you have planned I would like to know."
nikkii took his hand and guided it down to her waist then brought him back closer.

Phelan snatched his hand back away from her and took a few steps back. He shook his head. " I am going to deal with Kalysta, then Adaun and I are heading to Neriak to deal with your father and get my wife back. I have no idea what happend to you but I know you were under some sort of spell and some how I dont' think that you are feeling yourself yet. " Phelan turned to leave.

" A spell.... then how was it broken and why did you allow me to think that I was in the wrong and how will you defeat my father without my help?"

" I don't have time for this. You are still acting as if you are the only one important on Norath. I know I can't defeat your father without your help, but I will try anyways because Naldany needs me. " Phelan said as he walked to the tavern
