Oh the reaction out of the divine pissed him off to some degree. She was a guest and nothing more in his home. For her to assume she would be giving orders when she had no standing whatsoever in his home poured more anger into his body. But he let the blade be moved and sheathed it. He didn't care that the shackles were broken instead of put on. Talon was going upstairs and that was what he wanted. Since a doctor would be there as well to help. When Talon was out of sight he spun on his heel and stared at the divine.
" Let me tell you something Lady Divine. There is only one person alive that has any authority to give me orders. And that is not you but my wife. And understand this, my faith in you died with Kitiara so don't insult me by speaking her name. I have no reason to beleive in you because of what has happened in my life. And as such you are a guest only in MY kingdom and nothing more. So don't ever think you give any orders in this kingdom. Now we have....."
He staggared alittle and he held his head. He began breathing hard and he slowly sank to his knees. He was suddenly very tired and weak. Feeling as if he had been using his power for prolonged periods of time. Why did he feel so weak. " Why.....if you are so powerfull....so holy did you allow such thing to happen? Why if you are so strong would you allow this kind of devastaion to happen to this world...to my life? " He was breaking as the anger had taken its toll. And his control had fought that anger in full. " You tell me...why should i beleive you now? to trust in what you stand for when nothing but death and pain and suffering has been my life no matter how hard i tried to make it otherwise? The one good thing i have left in my life is Willow and my daughter. So why? Why should I beleive in you? "

“I am not to blame for Kitiara’s death. And your frightening your child! You didn’t lose faith in me, you lost faith in yourself and needed someone else to blame. Kitiara was a strong, loving, understanding woman who I loved and you weren’t the only one saddened by her death. But she gave you a daughter, whom Oberon plotted to have taken away by Talons Father, to make it look like it was Talons fault and it’s clear from the plea’s of your child that she was loved and cared for by him. He returned your daughter to you without a scratch and with more confidence then she had that day we saw each other at the trial. You should be grateful that he risked his life to protect hers and your anger isn’t justified. Yes I am the Divine… and I have to warn you… and all the other lords and ladies. Oberon is going to take this world by force… he wanted you dead because your not easy to control anymore. He wants the domains and this world to be his under his rule.”
Willow whimpered, “Novakon… he did save Rose… and look at her… she’s scared. She obviously spent so much time together that she loves him and your breaking her little heart. We need to trust the Divine… I’ve given my life and faith to her and she’s never lead me astray. She’s not here to bully you… she’s trying to guide us… to save our domains and our people from evil. Why do you resist it?” She said as Rose was to fearful of Novakons unhappy anger to even look at her father. She was trembling slightly, she was scared for Talon’s safety and wasn’t used to this sort of anger from her father and all she wanted to do was be near him but he didn’t hear her pleas.

Talon opened his eyes as he had slowly began to stop absorbing. He took a deep breath before standing. He popped his neck before taking a deep breath. "Finally..." He stretched his arms over his head before twisting. He groaned a bit as his back popped. He looked at his body before seeing the bruises were not as dark meaning they had healed in his time here. To Others the climate wouldn't help but to a Drathir being in their element meant that they would heal minor stuff quickly. After all, it was survival. He still had bruised muscles, and fractured bones. He had been wrapped in a first aid wrap around his ribs. He shook his head before he began unraveling it slowly. "Avalon...I am finallly back...."

He simply shook his head at what Avalon had said. " No...i don't blame you for what happened to her. That is my fault.....everything in this kingdom is my problem. But you....are supposed to bring peace and strength to those that beleive. I don't beleive in you...and haven't since that time. So why should i trust you? " He forced himself up to his feet. He was tired from what has happened. He walked to where Willow and Rose were still seated.
There he knelt down and gently took his daughter into his arms and held her close. " Never fear me Rose. I'm sorry if I scare you so. " He kissed her gently on the forehead. " Tell me that you weren't harmed and what happened. " He manuvered so he sat against Willows leg, easy enough for her to reach out and touch him if need be. He needed to be close to her now. He needed her strength to help steady him.
The more he heard about what was happening the more he understood. He didn't like alot of what he heard and the anger floated freely around him but it remained tempered. " Love...you say Talon wasn't the one that took our son....and attacked you. I have no reason to doubt you or my daughter. But the divine is right in one thing......." He sighed deeply and looked down. " I am a failure in everything that I do because i have no faith in myself. "

Avalon shook her head slightly, "You can not blame her death n me or say you stopped believing in me because of Kitiara's death. I am not responsible for that but I am but one woman and I was not as strong as I was. If I could have protected her I would have. If I could have protected myself I wouldn't have needed a guardian but I do. I'm here to bring peace to the world, I can't perform miracles like preventing homicide from happening but I can at least unite the world and it's domains." She turned away from him and started walking towards the door. "As far as I see it Novakon... you are a guest in my world." She said before leaving. She made her way back upstairs heading towards the room that was prepared for Talon, knowing her son would need that relief. He started to cry in her arms and she was doing the best she could. The door was opened for her and she stepped into the bedroom looking over at Talon. "....Talon..." She said softly to him. "I understand... if you do not love me anymore. You have no reason to because of how I judged you."
Willow didn't really want to let Novakon take Rose when he was this upset. Rose sniffled as he pulled her into his arms, "The mean ice man took me from my room and dropped me in the snow. Talon found me and saved me. He gave me his clothes and made a fire to put me in just to keep me alive. He's been trying to bring me home the whole time and others kept attacking us so we had to hide. And then the man who took me showed up and beat him up and said he was going to kill me like he was told to do..." Willow looked at Novakon, "She's the Divine Novakon... you don't talk like that to the Divine. She's struggling to make this world peaceful for us. It's not her fault for what happened. I don't think Rose and I should be near you when your this upset. We've been manipulated by the Acid Lord... and I will put an end to my alliance with him."

Talon's eyes moved to his lover when she entered the room. He was moving to her quickly even before she opened her mouth to speak. He was careful of his child as his hand moved around her head. He tangled his hand in her hair and pulled her close to him as he kissed her lips deeply. He held the kiss, keeping it going and deepening it for a full few moments. He had done it right after she had spoken so not to cut her off. He pulled away and put his forhead to her forehead. "Nothing could ever change how I feel for you....nothing..." He stroked his hand over her cheek pushing her hair behind her ear.
Talon looked into her eyes as he smiled and looked down to their son. "May I see the child now my love? I am just happy to see you both safe and sound...." He said before smiling a bit. "All the while I was away from you...I wanted nothing but to be near you....to see you and hear you..." He was tearing up as he stared at her. "I missed you so very much my love...never leave my side again..."

He smiled softly at what he heard. So she admitted she was merely mortal and just as normal as anyone else. HE remained silent and let her speak what she wished. Her world it would never be. It would only be a place for her to live untill she died and the next would come. But he watched as she left and he listened to his daughter. And he listened to Willow and his heart sank more.
He had thought she finally understood how he worked. Even when they left for those few months. " Willow....have you forgotten that without you near I can't control my anger. This...is nothing compared to what i am capable off. Beleive it or not its the tamest i've been when angry. You provide me the strength i need to retain some control over it. " He smiled and he pulled his daughter into his arms completely and held her. " I'm sorry i failed you Rose. I am glad you are safe and back home. I'v missed you so much. " He kissed her softly and he let all of his anger fade away finally.
" Lets go get cleaned up and rested. Tonight we will meet and see what to do. Oberon will not be happy she is gone and I'll most certainly sever my alliance with him. " He relunctantly let go of Rose and smiled. He had one last thing to take care off. The gaurds had stepped out of line. He stood up and walked to them. " Everyone of the gaurds that brought Talon here in such mistreatment is stripped of their rank. They are to be returned to the academy to re learn everything they should have already known. their pay is to be reduced to a servants pay. And each one is to be given ten lashes. " With that he turned and went back to Willow and Rose. " I have my verdict. It seems to be simple with such perfect witnesses as you two. "

Avalon almost didn't get to finish before Talon rushed to her and being careful of the baby leaned in kissing her deeply. It was the first real loving kiss she had felt since learning of Oberon's lies. She closed her eyes, she had missed him as much as he had missed her. When their lips parted she opened her eyes and looked up at him. She'd changed since the last time now having new elements from her second transformation. She had to admit that when she kissed him, she felt all the sparks of love. She smiled a bit before very gently placing her son into his arms, "...Talon... I'd like to introduce you to your son, Orion." She said to him. She wanted to tell him about his little twin but wasn't sure just yet how to tell him but thought she would need to soon. She pulled back the little blanket to reveal to Talon his sons head.
Willow sighed deeply, "Novakon... you drew a blade in the Divines presence... we are lords and ladies we are supposed to be her support. She and her guardian have higher power then we do. How could you say such awful things to her..." She said forcing herself to her feet slowly, putting one hand on her stomach. "I believe strongly in the Divine and our children are going to as well. I wont let you put your ridiculous feelings on her when it isn't her fault." She said as Rose sniffled and started to cry again. She'd come so far and hurt so much just to get home to her daddy. "Daddy!!" She screamed almost bloody murder when he tried to let her go.

Talon smiled and held his son looking down on him. When Avalon mved the blanket off his head Talon's eyes widened. What he had laid his eyes on was a two tone drathir baby. He didn't have much hair but what hair he did have was a deep green and a snow white. He smiled softly knowing for sure this child was his. "Orion Silvershadow..." He mumbled before kissing his son's forehead. "He is handsome...." He said before looking to Avalon. "We made this...we made this little child...a child of our love..." He kissed her forehead before holding his son close, but gently, to his chest.
Having had time to think it over Talon sighed. "I think, as the Divine you need to remind Novakon who has given his family their position as Lord of Fire. The First Divine after the transformation to humanoid form gave the order for all clans to have a leader and a leader was picked from her choice. Thus, the family lines were created. Novakon seems to think this world belongs to the Lords and Ladies when in actuallity this world is only here and stable because of the Divines and by the laws of the Drathirs he is to obey a Divine. Guardians are but vessels to protect and messengers to send word. I have no power over him but neither does he over me or yourself. At dinner I will bring this up to him." Talon said matter of factly. As Avalon had grown and been able to pull memories from her divine past lives he was able to pull knowledge from the laws and the rules her past lives had made.

He instantly pulled his daughter close when she had cried out. He helped Willow up and walked with her. " Willow please understand. When i lost her i lost my faith. and because of that she lost all purpose to me. Its the way i am. But seeing just how normal she is right now, how vulnerable makes me see her differently. I bow to no one save you and that is the only way it will be with me. My parents hated that when I told them as such as well. "
He breathed in and out slowly. " But now seeing her as she is and guessing at what she is going through....i think i can beleive in what she is trying to do. And as such i'll support her completely. Talon as well....is innocent of everything that he has been charged for. I wish i had listened to myself during his trial. At dinner tonight i'll give my loyalty to her. " He leaned over and kissed her softly.

Avalon watched Talon with Orion and how amazed he seemed to be over seeing their son was a duel element but knew with the ice in him, he was his son. Avalon smiled a bit when he said that Orion was their love child. "I was... afraid when I learned I was pregnant... that I might be carrying you're son. I know you're probably... are upset with me for what happened... and it doesn't help that... I'm married to Oberon" She said looking up at Talon again. "I couldn't let him see Orion, he'd of killed him." She told him. Now all of Avalons pain and illness made sense, Talon had shared in physical pain with her pregnancy and what she was going through. "Oberon is going t be coming after me..." She said to him. "I'm still his wife... and I regret it." She said though then felt like she might have just admitted to regretting Zarius but she could never regret her son.
Willow looked into Novakon's eyes as he deal with Rose who panicked when Novakon had tried to let go of her. She reached out and stroked the back of Rose's hair and nodded slightly, "You shouldn't push something that doesn't ned to be pushed Nova. Right now we need to deal with Rose." She said starting towards the bedroom, wanting to get cleaned up while dinner would be prepared. Rose clung to Novakon and held her arms tightly around her father's shoulders. "Daddy don't leave me again" She said just so happy to be at home again with him. "Were is brother? I want t see him."

Talon sighed and nodded. "I forgive you for marrying that...that imbecile. Lord Novakon can remove that ritual and even marry us. As a Lord, and Lady Willow can be the witness, he has that right." Talon blinked before looking to Avalon. "Did he have another Lord or Lady present when the wedding was happening?" Talon asked before smirking. "If so it is a weak marriage. Lord Novakon wouldn't need Willow's agreement to nullify it. He would just remove it as a Lord of the Fire Domain." He nodded before rocking his son. "Besides...it is easily fixed my dear...trust me. I know every law of the planet..."

Novakon smiled and nods. " your right my love. " He walked with her and held Rose in his arms. They were in the hallway when she asked for her brother. He stopped for a moment...trying to figure out how to tell her. Within afew moments he sighed and gave her the answer. " Brother...is with mommy now Rose. " He held her close. He wondered if she would understand it. If she did....how would she react to it. " He resumed walking and soon they all were in their bedroom. " I promise Rose, i'll never leave you again. But you still have to grow up. But always remember, when i'm not with you i'm still there as long as you feel my love and see my face in your mind and heart. "

Avalon lifted her hand and gently stroked Orion's head gently, "I love him Talon... just... not the way I love you. He's not the boy I remember. I thought he was at first but after we got married everything changed. He was abusive and demanding. I didn't have a say in anything I did. I couldn't stop thinking about you, worrying about you, and wondering where you were. Somehow I knew... I was carrying your child. I learned of him shortly after my wedding..." Avalon wanted to tell Talon about Zarius but then she worried about him not seeing her like he used to. He said he'd always love her but how would he feel if she knew she had a child with Oberon. Her heart sank into her stomach and a few tears escaped her eyes and rolled down her cheeks, "I couldn't let him be harmed... Talon I feel s guilty... I feel... so dirty and no mater how I wash myself I can't ever seem... to wash that feeling away."
Willow groaned softly rubbing her stomach and then looked at Rose. She asked if she could see her brother and even Willow didn't know how to handle it. Novakon told her he was with her mother and Rose's face saddened. "Oh... so brother has died then..." She said understanding death much better now that Talon had explained it to her. "Talon said that it's okay to die... that they go to live with all the other Divines. But sometimes they stay behind t look after us... do you think brother will stay behind like mommy did?"

Talon moved to the bed and sat her down. He stroked her head before gently handing their son back to her. He knelt and put his hands on her knees. He looked up to her and smiled softly. "I love you Avalon and I want to be with you for the rest of this life and the next. I don't blame you for what had happened. Oberon was sneaky and even had me believing it at one point. But the fact was I wasn't on this planet and the idea of my harming some one just because I have the power...would go against the Divine and my own laws as Guardian." He reached up and stroked her jawline before putting his hand on the bed.
He stood up and smiled softly. He took her free hand and placed it on his chest where his heart beat under her touch. "This beats for you and you alone...all the while we were apart I felt your pain, your suffering, your worry and heard your thoughts..." He said admitting that they were becoming more and more in tune with their connection to one another. "Oberon will pay for what he did...one day before his time is up he will pay..."
