- Nikolaj RH.: -He looked up at her from his seated position as she stood up with a sad face and body language.- "Why would he do such a thing to his daughter..? I hope I don't see him again." -Nicolas finished off with a stern look on his face. He then stood up next to her, after grabbing the sword she had dropped, to take her hand and lead her further into the villa.- "Let us get you cleaned up, Princess." -He said smiling softly-
- Gabriele looked at him him with a smile, " I suppose you are right... i have missed you Nicolas." Gabriele placed her left hand to his cheekand turned her body towards him. Just as she went to lean in to kiss him, a knock came at the door. Gabriele released nicolas and went to the door. She opened it and there stood a women, her head was covered with a blacken apparel kinda of how her mother head was covered when she worked with the healers on the island. The women knelt down and said,"... if it is true that the queens daughter is here, then please allow her servant to speak." Gabriele leaned down andd helped the women to her feet. " Please tell me what you want my dear. " Gabriele said kindly. The women touched her hand to her face and the gash that was in Gabriele mouth sealed. Gabriele touched her face and looked at the women, "... My name is Iya Princess, I and my healers found your sister washed up here on the island. HEr ribs were broken but now only 1. I need more time to work with her. But when we heard there was a chance the Princess had returned to her mother island, the elder healers sent me. " Gabriele said to the women," Please take me to her at once!" The healer nodded and waved toward Nicolas to follow . -15 minutes later- They arrived via foot to the home where Lilth was being keep. Iya stood at the door, gabriele gave a look to Iya and she nodded for her to enter it. Gabriele stepped into the room slowly-
- Lilith was sitting up in her bed reading a book when suddenly she heard the door to the house creak open and the floor creaked as someone walked across it .Lilith knew she was safe within the house so she looked up from her book slightly and greet whoever it was "Hello and welcome" her tone was weak as she spoke
- Gabriele couldnt help but smile. She said in a low voice, " Even in pain you are running this place sister. Do you know how many people i had to answer to ust to see you!?" Gabriele stood at the door looking at her sister lovingly-
- Lilith would smile as she heard her sister voice she places the book beside her and swings her legs off the side of the bed trying to sit up and walk to her sister. She slowly stands up and limps over to her siter not caring she was in pain then embraces her sister -she lets out a cry and buries her face into her sister "I am so glad to see you still alive sister-
- -Gabriele just buried her face into her sister and held her up best she could to not cause her discomfort. Gabriele thought it best she not strain herself and said to her,"..Lilth ... I'm so glad you are here...wait... where have you been !" Gabriele saw a chair near by and eased her into it.~
- -Lilith would smile weakly and sit then tells her sister of the wonderful land she was on then she begins to smile and tell her of the vampire she has fell in love with and how he has a wonderful sister her age and same hieght as she told the story she would smile each time she mentionted Lunarin's name. feww minutes later she got to the part when Ukyo saved every one from the beast and how she was so impatient to get home that she jumped out of the boat and began to swim letting the waves carry her home
- -Gabriele nodded because at the time that was all she could do . Such tales were so strange to her. But she had to try now, after everything they had been through and seen. Gabriele tried reallyy hard. Gabriele placed her hands on her sisters and said,"... perhaps I will meet them one day. Though other matters are left for attending to. Father wants to crown me Queen tomorrow. Oh what a glorous day it will be, since he forgot to tell me oh the lies and trickery he had keep me under. Hmmp... and then when i asked for him to be honest with me, he ..." Gabriele stood and looked away saying , " He struck me in my face. Had not your healer came touched my face the gash would still be there. How am i expect to lead people the way mom did? Its so much pressure Lilith."
- Lilith looks at her sister confused"what do you mean the lies Father kept from you and how is mother is she here with you and is the rest of the crew ok. her head was so full of questions that she just kept asking her sister so much differant things once she relized what she was doing she stopped and chewed on her lower lip nervously "sorry sister i been away from home so long i am full of questions" she chuckles
- ~ Gabriele looked at her with tears in her eyes," Caspian came with a letter while we still were on Pirendra. She wrote me a letter telling me she ...she didnt have much longer. Lilith ... our mother is dead!" she sucked it up and said firmly," That is why I am here to findout the truth about that Father of ours. He killed Caspian Father, and made Caspian the Arch Duke of Abalone. I want to know why mother keep us away all those years before she moved int that palace. .... I need the truth now!
- Pendogrin - She slowly began to stirr. She looked up at Zachria. Her body was weak, so she closed her eyes knowing she had been saved. All her makeup, everything that had desquised her as a man, all her spells and magic had faded. She was exposed as a woman. As she lay there she could hear the guards stirring over her they were yelling at the man who had saved her, yeah she was aware who he was, thought she said nothing just in case. She wanted more information. Just from listening to the guards, it seemed many of the people had survived and were being carried to care facilities that had been set up around the town. The took him at force, because by order of King Madres, all persons from the wreck had to be seen. Pendogrin laughed inside, she knew he feared an illness coming into the lands if it was not dealt with quickly. Suddenly she felt arms under her body. These women were daughters of the Elders. They brought her to the island of Kerithelial. The island of Queen Catherine. Pendogrin was cared for intensly. Eventually she was able to move around, Tho her leg was still sore and her arms from trying to fight the current to survive. One of the Elder healers named Iya walked into the room and stoo before her. " Listen to me, the daughter of Catherine is here, its because of answers that drew her here. We cant let this moment slip away. She will listen now. I think its best we..." Pendogrin snarled,"... what makes you so sure? What has happened since i have been away?!" King Jerumer is dead Victoria...." Elder Iya lower her head. Victoria Pendogrin eye filled with tears but she wiped them away just as fast at they came to her. "Tell me , has he spoken to her?' Yes Victoria. " Then take me to her."

- -He looked back down at Gabriele- Caspian will be alright. -He held her hand tightly in his- But no one else is taking your hand but me. -He sighed- We can just stay here... and not go back to see your father again, love.
- -Lilith shakes her head not wanting to believe the woman that has cared for her and took her in as her own was dead she breaks down and cries falling to the floor on her knees and hugs her sister tight as she was crying she says to her sister "what do you mean father killed Caspians father why would father do such a thing after all the years Caspian's father served him with loyalty and now Caspian is upset cuz of te lies father said to him and us. Why would father do such a thing. Lilith looks up at her sister tears falling WHY WHY would father do this to everyone.
- Elder Iya: Iya walked into the room as Lilith had said the close of her sentence. "... I believe we have someone here that can explain a lot more than that. Gabriele...Lilith what you about to hear will be the most difficult thing to take in. But i beg you to listen. I beg that Catherine's Heir will hear what is being said today. There has been so much keep from you Gabriele. All of it was to keep you safe. You need to know that your mother wanted only to protect you from the pain of your father. Catherine worked hard being a Royal Healer for King Quartz. Gabriele you were to young to remember your grandfather. You were just a baby when he left. But your birth was meant to bring the peace between the two lands. I dont know how to say this , Pendogrin, please come."
- Pendogrin: Victoria slowly hobbled into the door frame. She didn't want to come all the way into the room. She didn't feel excepted. Not yet. "I believe what she is trying to tell you is that ... i'm your sister Gabriele."
- -Gabriele turned aside to see Elder Iya standing at the door. "... what is the meaning ..." she listened to what was being told to her. Gabriele slowly sank into the floor. Some how she tried to prepare her heart for what she was about to hear. But nothing would suffice. Upon hearing the very name Pendogrin she grabbed her sword up in her hand and aim it at her. "...What the hell is this monster doing here? What is this you have brought to be Iya?" the very words she spoke was heinous.. deceit...tthats her game now that we killed her father. " So this is your game now come while I am weak to harm me and my sister?" she stayed her stance more afraid that her words were true....and those of her father-
- Lilith would look over toward the door confused then she weakly stood up and grabbed for her dagger on the nightstand next to the bed she slept. "How dare you come and say such lies to my sister after all she has been threw you come and spread these horrible lies," show us proof that you are truly Gabs sister or so help me god I will cut your lying tongue from your mouth." she stood up straight trying to hide her true pain
- Pendogrin- She looked at Gabriele sword and then back at Gabriele. At the same time hearing lilith words and said,"You can call me Victoria. Im not the one who has years of there life missing, so it would behove you to listen to me, that is ... since you have heard my father." She walked over to a chair and sat down." Strange, I fell more comfortable now... ~ looking up to Gabriele's eyes~ Before you were ever thought of Gabriele, my father and your mother fell in love and had begun a life together. She learned the art of healing from my father. Tho my father always told me that the gift was in her, something like he only brought it out of her. Your mother started the Royal Clergy of Healers. That is where she meet Elder Iya. Iya was one of the first taught by our mother to master Healing. It was around this time that Madres was falling for our mother. I was around 9 or 10 when this was going on , and it was very hard for me to see my mom being hassled by Madres. He keep trying anything he could to get her away from my father. All the while my father was going power crazy. He wanted abalone and he wanted my grandfathers kingdom. I was the only thing keeping them together. CAtherine got tired of my father rage for power and left him for Madres, thats when you were born. Your Grandfather Quartz, knew what had happened and begged Madres not to marry our mother because it was only pulling her into a conflict that had been waged for centuries. But Madres didnt listen and he married Catherine. But our mother wasnt a fool, she stayed away from Abalone, even as Queen, she stayed on this island....her island. I was the one hurt the most. The years slowly went by of utter madness. My father realizing he lost the women he loved became a monster! He took his rage out on every woman that was born in Afaregon, it didn't matter who they were... except me. He wouldnt hurt me. She wouldnt let him hurt me. But I lost my mother.... to you.... i went years without her. I lived in fear while you were able to grow up with her by your side." a few tears rolled down her cheek but she quickly wiped them away.~ " That sword you have, is our blood line. When ever a problem arose, that sword, always had the answer. My father use to tell me tales of how this sword unlocked doors and controlled things, but he never knew how to use it, nor did my grandfather. " She stopped talking and looked from Lilith to Gabriele ~ http://www.thekeeneredge.com/images/kit-rae-mithrodin-sword-image-dsc00030.JPG
- -Nicolas stood in the background listening to the women speak, and the vast stories from the one called Pendogrin. He'd never heard such tales about Gabriele's family or heritage. All this drama there had or could have been involved, it was not alike what had ever went on where he came from. Nico didn't say anything but then took his lovers hand to comfort her, and trying to make her put down the sword.- "Gabriele, please put the sword down... no one has to get hurt, Princess." -He held his hand out towards the sword but was careful not to get hurt himself-
- Gabriele slowly handed her love the blade but didn't take her eyes off the woman. Gabriele felt for a chair, never taking her eyes out of Pendogrins, she sat down on a table. Gabriele didn't know what to say ... what to do. Gabriele placed her hands to her temples, slowly massaging the sides of her head. It was a long silence before Gabriele finally spoke," I uhh.... this is ... this is a lot for me Victoria...." ~Gabriele paused to think on the times that her mother stayed on her island when the sea monsters would come. Gabriele used to think her mom was crazy. Everyone on the island had fled to the mountain areas except her mother. ~ " What is the reason you want me to know all this now... I mean... " Gabriele just looked from Victoria to lilth then to Nicolas-
- Lilith would look back at Gabs then to Nick then to Victoria "Well I still do not trust you cuz of the kingdom you came from. It takes alot to earn my trust and I will not keep my eyes off you or have my back turned to you. she places her dagger back on the end table but sits near just in case she needs to grab for it quickly she then sits back down on the bed and keeps her eyes on Victoria. By the way has Lunarin or Kyo showed up in town yet she would look to the ones who found her and brought her to the hous.
- Pendogrin- She shock her head at both of them," Im not here for your trust, i'm simply telling you what you have been incubated from. The funny thing is, I'm not the one you need to worry about. Fact of the matter is, Madres knew and he never told you. Here's some advice for the two of you. Find your grandfather, to do that , find the people who are loyal only to Quartz. There is so many secrets in Abalone, and its time you two wiser up and learn what they are before its to late." After she said this she stood up and left out of the room. Elder Iya was near the door as she past with a sad look on her face.~
- Eldedr Iya: " Everything she said is true my Lady. Please I beg you to be careful around your father. Lilith no one has been found but you. Ill tell the maids to come in and get you bathed." she bowed leaving the room-
- - Gabriele looked down and slowly stood up," I need to get back to moms house, I left some things there. In the morning I'm heading back to the castle. I see the only way to get answers I need is from inside, and that is just fine with me. Lilith you stay here and rest .... ill bring a horse for you. We leave early morning." Gabriele grabbed Nicholas hand mindful of which hand he had her sword in, and left the place that Lilth was being kept-
- -Lilith would nod her head with understanding then looks to her sister with concern and still confused on what she just heard she would look to Iya and see a sad look on her face. Lilith would then talk toward where Victoria was leaving and spoke "After telling me and my sister this becareful you never know who could have been listening or may be spying to go run and tell father everything you just told us. Lilith would quickly speak "this does not mean I trust you I just don't want to see anymore lives taken. Lilith would hear what Iya told her and sigh with sadness worrying about Lunarin and his sister "Ok' she would then quickly wipe away the tears that began to fall when she heard they was not found she would speak in a low tone that only she could hear "Please Let then be ok I cannot bare to hear of Lunarin dead nor his sister" she would snap out of her train of thought as Gab spoke of leaving in the morning "Ok Sis" after she heard the door shut behind them and she was alone in the house she would break down and cry what she was holding back.
