Phelan chuckled at her remarks about the jewlery. Phelan placed the rings on his fingers and put the charms on under his armor.
"I will be as delicate as I can be, but she has to realize that this was something I had to do. I came face to face with the Dark Father, Innorruk, she can't harm me any worse than he did, I am not worried. I hope that you find Darlena, when will you be leaving? I shall miss your company." Phelan said flashing that smile of his, but it was no longer boyish, the scar twisted it and it now appeared predatory.

Nikkii tried to contain her laughter at first but then thought of something as she looked down at the now sleeping child.
" How is that possible for a lowly soldier to meet the dark father let alone live to tell the tale? .... Hmmm was this the first time ...... or did you see him prior to your son's conseption."
Nikkii picked up the child and tucked him into his crib before turning back towards Phelan. She stopped and leaned Phelan down a bit to examine his scar.
" I can fix this you know, but to answer your question I'll wait till you matter with your wife is conclueded, and Lilyth is no longer here to do damage. After that is done I'll go after that disobediant girl unless you want to brave travel in the elven lands."
She pulled a bit at the scar and went to her bed again to sit.

"First off what makes you think that I am just a lowly soilder?" Phelan said with a sneer. " How soon you forget though I may seem to be from humble origins I am from the house of Seladria, That house was one of the more powerful houses in Neriak, I am heir to that house. As for my scar, leave it, it serves as a reminder to me." Phelan said raising his chin a bit.
" I 'braved' the elven lands before coming here remember, it isn't as if the elves compare to any Tier'dal." Phelan said twisting the word braved. "If you would like me to go with you or just go get her I shall, but as you say I need to deal with Naldany first." Phelan said, not waiting for a reply he turned and left.
Phelan wandered back to his room he walked inside the room and sat in the chair in the corner. He rested his helmet upon his knee and awaited her return. A darkness seemed to cling to the corner where Phelan sat, though the room was well lit.

Naldany's patence ran out as the Fenn'dal house had finally unnerved her. She thanked the servants and asked to borrow a shirt of Patryas to which the servant humbly lowered his head and said he could not without his masters permission but would ask and send word to her personally. He walked her out of the door and the guards saw her safely back withing the church walls.
The hour was getting late and she didn't wish to wake her aunt or tell the strange visitor Lilyth that she didn't get a piece of clothing. She went towards her room trying to avoid any contact even from the guards that she told to keep an eye out for Phelan. She took her sword out from her sash and carried it in hand to the door. Not really noticing that the door was opened recently she took a deep breath and started to break down and cry as she walked though the room.

Phelan knew it was Naldany before she stepped in through the door. Great she is crying, Phelan thought with a roll of his eyes.
"Since when do O'seth women cry?" Phelan said quietly from the corner. His helmet still on his knee and cloaked in shadows. Phelan truly hoped that this wouldn't come down to combat.

Nikkii would have surely been angry if she would have seen Naldany's total lack of composer and inablity to detect she wasn't alone in that room. Naldany knew this as well and focused herself a bit, soon she was able to gather she wasn't alone in the roomand unsheathed her sword and kicked the door shut.
" Ok so you wanted to catch a peek at my body well I'm going to fill this room with bolt of lighting if you don't show yourself and leave."
Her hands started to glow as she gathered power to unleast the area effect spell.

"I will take a peek, but I have already seen it before." Phelan said with a laugh as the lightening was gathering in her hands. He stood from the chair and left his helmet on the chair.
"This wasn't quite the welcome home I expected.."Phelan paused and rubbed his chin in thought for a second and then continued. "..on second thought this is exactly how I thought it might go, unfortunately. You don't even recognize my voice?" Phelan said as he slowly walked toward her.

" Stay back you coward... I mean it." Naldany let a bolt fly at him and it missed him barely. She let another fly at him that caught him squarely and pushed him back a bit. To her surprise there was no damage done to him, as he stood there quietly.
" That's impossible how are you even standing? Are you just a figment of my imagination... or a ghost? I'd rather our son not no his father left his mother in their hour of need. That Loveless would have killed me if not for his aunt. I was ready to drop my house name and become a Seladria at your side."
Naldany then pointed her sword at Phelan as a magic aura surrounded her and became multiple sharp shards like before.
" You better defend yourself.... my love." Tears still fell as she sent the shards at him but at the last second they split away hitting around Phelan.
" Say something ..... I'm going crazy to know why you left me.... you will not be a martyr here, no...." She dropped the sword and began to chant her detonation spell.

"I left because I had to, I had to heal, I was losing my mind and thought I might hurt you and the child." Phelan said.
"If you let that fly, then it was all a waste. I stand before you a Tier'Dal, Head of the house Seladria." The room trembled ever so slightly and shadows seemed to decend like fog.
"My wife, we can fight, but I tell you the Dark Father is on my side. I left for you, to be the husband you wanted, you needed. Your Aunt approves of me now and you do not? That is rather Ironic if that is truly the case." Phelan said as he walk toward her still.
Nothing had changed except that Phelan was preparing himself for the worst. His gate turned into something graceful and predatory accented even more by the scar that twisted his smile. Phelan waited and hoped that he would not have to fight his wife.

Naldany palced her hand together and the spell fizzled away with a hissing sound. Her hands appeared to be burnt slightly from the spell but she put er hands behind her back and allowed Phelan to come closer to her as she avoided looking him in the face as her tears dried.
" Thats why my spells didn't work... your wearing my aunts charms, arent you? I don't thinnk I could kill you anyway look at me I'm nothing like them..... Darlena is much stronger and can be as cold as ice if she wants to and Nikkii is much more ruthless and smarter than me. I'm kidding myself to think I would lead this house .... all I am is a spoild princess and would be too weak to lead this house. I wish Darlena was here I sure she would know what is best."
Naldany crossed her arms infront of her taking care not to hurt her hands in the process. Now that Phelan was standing infront of her she felt only fear that he was going to finish her for her attack on him.

Phelan caressed her face and kissed her.
"You don't belive in yourself, that is the only thing that you lack. Confidence can make you powerful, like Nikkii, or lack of confindence will hold you back, like I used to be." Phelan said as he held her in his arms.

Naldany summoned a light breeze that blew out the candles, making their room dark. She started hugging him and kissed him.
" Show me how to be my love.."

It was now the middle of the night and Phelan lay awake still sweaty from the passion that had swept away the rest of the day and the night. Naldany still lay in his arms quietly sleeping, Phelan couldn't sleep.
All Phelan could think about was how good it felt to be home. For the first time ever, he was comfortable in Neriak, this was home to him now. Phelan kept thinking about his son. Phelan knew that his son would be a danger to many people in places of power around Neriak.
For now he must be kept safe, with Aramis in my house, it will put the rest of Neriak on thier heels for awhile. Under the tutledge of Naldany and Nikkii he would be a tremendous asset in house Seladria. But if he ever got to be a nuicsance he would have to be dealt with. Phelan thought as he stared at the blackness above him.
Phelan soon was sleeping along side his wife as the night hours kept grinding away to morning.

It was nearly afternoon and Nikkii began to wonder why Naldany had missed his studies and not been around to see her son yet. The child was now taking his first steps and displaying remarkable strength for a toddler. He was able to pick up the end of a broadsword but no more than that. Nikkii attempted to make Aramis gather engery by doing it infront of him, but he would just put his finger in his mouth and look away. He turn away from Nikkii and use a fire spell to set the curtains on fire and giggle. She put up with his behavior until she needed a breather from him. So she scooped him up and went to Naldany and Phelan's room, knocking on the door before pushing it open she peered in to see the two asleep still.
" Well I see things went well ..... I am finished with your son for today if you two are done you may collect him from my room.." She commented with a smile as she shut the door .

Phelan had slightly turned his head and opened one of his eyes enough to see who had opened the door. Nikkii had said what she wanted to and shut the door. He could imagine that she would need a break from the child, he leaned over and kissed Naldany.
"Wake up, my love, your aunt needs a break from Aramis and I have to go take care of some buisness now that I am back." Phelan said in a quiet whisper in her ear.
Phelan hoisted himself out of the bed and looked for his clothes, they seemed to be tossed about at random around the room. He stepped on something sharp and cursed loudly as he stumbled into the chair in the corner. well at least I found one of my many daggers he thought with a chuckle as he cradled his foot.
