Novakon sighed as he sat on the wall of the palace couryard. He overlooked the gardens and smiled to himself watching his queen tending to the garden there. But something was troubling him and it was getting under his skin and in a bad way. Something didn't feel right at all. He looked around and then stood and walked the wall slowly. The axe clinked softly at his waist as he walked makeing a familiar and soothing sound. Maybe...he should head out for awhile, train himself and get to know the land once more. He had been in the palace far too long and wanted to increase his abilities. But...to leave her behind to run things so soon after their wedding wasn't something he wanted to do.
He ran one hand over his face as he jumped over a conecting stone and landed on another section of the wall. so much to think about, so many problems and not enough answers. He sighs with a growl growing in his throat. He hated this to no end and it often leads to him blowing something or someone up in a bad temper. He shook his head and with a flare of energy he took to the air and landed in the private training circle he used when in these kind of moods.
Here he began to fight against a series of practice dummies. This was really annoying. He struck out quickly and with full force. So many problems, not enough answers, and no way to bury them or solve them. So he was left with dealing with it this way. He needed to get out and do something, but still the problem was he didn't want to leave his wife to deal with his duties, and he wasn't sure if she would want to go with him.

As he worked over what bothered him so greatly he continued to fight. This was absolutely ridiculous and it ticked him off greatly. Why was he haveing such a hard time with this? What was getting under his skin so badly that he couldn't even decide to go to the one person he could turn to? He spun and with a backhanded swing smashed through the thin training metal that the dummies used.
He growled and with a spin kick, took out another and as he came around he focused on one in the distance. Energy began building up as he took aim at the target. Maybe...he should just go to her and see what she would say. After all, she was brave enough to take him as her husband and was well capable of takeing care of him in more ways than one.

( ill be NPCing Novakons wife )
Novakons wife lifted her head at the sound of her husbands clanking axe her hands holding a watering can as she stood upright and turned slightly towards the sound. Her long white and orange draped dress rippled slightly as she did so and her right hand lifted to brush back her redish orange hair. She saw her husband quickly disappear from her line of sight but she knew he was troubled, perhaps because of her state of condition. She set down the watering can and started to move forward, soon finding him training and he did in fact looked troubled, "...Novakon..." She said letting her soft voice ring out to him as she stood a good distance from him. "...Novakon are you troubled my dear?" She asked. Her health had begun to deteriorate though she had kept it 100% hidden from him in hopes it would keep his worries down.

As his energy built he placed his hands at his right side and formed a ball of energy. His focus remained on the target, but his mind swam with all the questions and worries that have been hitting him lately. Even now he was worried about her. Something wasn't right and he didn't know what was wrong since she was able to hide things so well. Hearing her voice calmed his mind and he lifted his hands and then threw the attack.
The target burst into flames and them blew apart as his energy levels returned to normal. He breathed in and turned looking to her. If he said he was fine, she would get onto him about lying to her. If he said he wasn't, she would get worried. He sighed and shook his head as he walked over to her. " Not really. "

She knew him well, well enough to know when he wasn't being completely honest with her, and yet she hadn't been completely honest with him either. "Novakon I can see it in your eyes, an from how you hold your composer... something is troubling you... is it about this war?" She asked and as he approached she reached out to smooth the wrinkles out of his clothes, a habit of always trying to keep him looking nice and presentable to anyone. "You've not been yourself for days and I'm starting to worry about you... even last night you barely slept"

He managed a smile as she smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothing. She wasn't easily fooled and that was a good think. He sighed softly and reached up caressing her neck. " The war and so much more is bothering me. I just don't know anymore. A war I can deal with, but something about this one has me worried....and something about you is off as well and that has me worried. "

She looked up into his dragon slit like eyes as she did so with her own, hearing him tell her that she knew she wasn't fooling him anymore then he was fooling her, "Novakon... your worry about me... your suspicions about me and something being wrong is all true. I didn't want you to worry anymore then you already are, and stress you when war is at our doorstep, and the Divine is still missing. The fact she hasn't been reborn tells me shes still alive..." She looked down as she gently placed her hands against his chest, but she was trembling, her strength wasn't was it used to be. "I am not well dear... sometimes I'm in constant pain, sometimes I'm not... other times i struggle just to get get out of bed every morning. I had hoped you wouldn't notice my lack of appetite or my weight loss."

He looked back into her slitted eyes with a soft smile and then held her close. He breathed her in and enjoyed it as he slowly let his breath out. Listening to her speak made him feel at ease but still, the words she said rang true enough. " This is true. I'm worried....that this war will soon hit our kingdome and i'll loose you and it. Since you took me as your husband my dreams have changed and with you getting ill......." He sighed and simply held her. If she left him, he would never know a family of his own, and he would loose most of his drive for fighting.

She sighed ever so softly, she knew how he felt but didn't want him to feel as if she was the only thing worth living for, "No dear... don't speak like that. Even if I become very Ill... and I leave this world, I would want you to be strong, and live on. To fight and thrive in my name is more then I could ask for... and being married to you is the greatest joy in my life. I'm still here, and I plan to be for as long as I can, but what we do, we do because it's our ways. Promise me if something was to happen to me, you wouldn't give up, you wont give in, and someday when your ready you will meet someone knew, marry and love again."

He sighed and closed his eyes at her words. A promise he couldn't keep, no matter how hard he tried or wanted too. " Kitiara, you know that's a promise I can't keep. It took me too long to find you, and I know there isn't another out there that could match me like you. The best I can do is promise to always be strong, to keep trying to live if something did happen to you. A family with you is all I want now, i would forsake this kingdom just for that. "
(( i'm gearing this thread before the war actually hit them and they have yet to have their first child.))

( I understand )
She didn't seem to be happy about his answer, and it seemed to have mad her depressed, "I don't think... I'll be strong enough to give you a family Novakon... but you will find someone, not right away I know but in time, that's what would make me happy" She said putting on a small smile for him before she turned away and started to walk away to let him go back to his training, not wanting him to argue with her.

He let a growl escape his throat as he saw her reaction to his words. When she turned to walk away he placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. Sure he was being stubborn but it was his nature. " Kitiara please. Don't be upset with me for what I say. There can never be another that has been as good to me as you. I will find a way to help get you better. And I can only promise to keep liveing if the worst happens. But i'll never be able to love anyone like I do you. But if it makes you happy, I promise to try if it comes to that. " He let his hand move away from her shoulder and sighed. Damn this war, and damn it all that wasn't fair. But hey, he survived his parents, and the many battles that he shouldn't have.

She didn't want to tell him she felt that it as severe and make him worry more, but him stopping her and turning her again by her shoulder, she looked up at him with a brave face. His words where moving and it made her heart flutter the way it did the day she met him; she couldn't help but smile. "I understand... and I'm glad you promise me this my love. It does mean a lot to me that you will go on if something was to happen to me. I need to know that you wont push away love if it happens upon you again. It makes me feel at ease knowing you promise" She said leaning in and put a gentle kiss on the corner of his lips.

He smiled softly seeing that she had lightened up alittle. At her words he nods. " I will promise that as well. Now you go rest and i'll be in shortly. " He smiled and kissed her softly in return. He waited till she had left before he turned and walked back into the training circle.
This wasn't going to be fun, or easy or enjoyable. He knew she was ill now and it was going to effect him greatly. he didn't like makeing those promises for the fact he knew he could never find another that would be able to put up with him like she could. But to see her happy made him happy. But it was time to releive alittle stress and start thinking on where and how to find the medicinces needed to help get her better. He was going to need her at his side if these rumors of war became a fact.

He wanted her to go and rest but the last thing she wanted to do was live the remainder of her life feeling weak and be inside. Rather then going back inside to her room he went back out to her garden to weed her garden, and tend to the leaves that had turned brown. It was mostly a hobby she had to pass the time but it was just the sort of easy effortless tasks she liked to do. She knew in her heart Novakon was going to stress now, and she wondered if she had made the right choice by telling him she wasn't well.
