Lulu smirked as she said," Oh calm down dear brother I can't read your mind, but I could guess what you were thinking. I had the same thought when I saw Rev play with the triplets." She set her hand on his shoulder and said," If that is how you feel then why not tell her?"

Rye looks back towards Diantha and smiles softly. "It's just me honestly. I'm just nervous about being a father and raising a child." He feared that his child wouldn't like him or that he would do something wrong. What if the child wanted to move to the city and not live on the farm? "So much could go wrong!"

Lulu frowned as she said," I wont deny that it is scary brother, but look at Sprig." She herself looked at her son as she said," So much could go wrong as that little boy grows up. He could leave me and Rev and we never see him again, or that he could destroy everything me and his father wish to build. But you can't focus at that, all you can do is live and enjoy the time you have."

"I suppose you are right." Rye said thoughtfully. He takes a deep breath then slowly exhales. "Suppose at this point, I'm just making excuses. I really want to be similar to dad if that is even possible. Guess, I just have to wing it right?" He created a successful farm with the help of Diantha and a few others even though he had no idea how. How hard would it be to raise a child?

Diantha grinned as she made Slrig laugh more and she continued to entertain him as they walked. She already loved the little toddler, glancing up at her beloved husband with a big smile plastered on her face. She hoped that she would be able to have a child one day, her own child to love and raise with Rye by her side. She lightly tickled Sprig again then blew raspberries on his tiny belly.
Nova continued walking with his big brother, not really paying attention to the conversation his big sister and Rye were having. He just watched Diantha and Sprig, smiling the whole way.
Rev came up and caught up to Rye and Lulu. “Don’t forget raise our children the best we can love. It’s never guaranteed to be easy. But we do our very best to bring Sorig up in a loving, strong family.” He said.
Scover watched as all their classmates lined up and he looked to his dorm mate. “I’ll help where I can. If you feel tired I can support you.” He offered, looking back to the huge line of other kids.

Lulu turned her head and asked," Which are you talking about, are biological papa or the daddy we grew up with?" Honestly she could only picture Jay when talking about her father. Her blood father was barely a blur to her since he died when she was so young. She then smiled as she hugged her elder brothers arm and said," Anyways, no matter who you are talking about I am sure you would do great."
Valex gave a quick nod as he moved the sash off of his eyes and began to go through the students. As they reached the half way point he recovered his eyes and said," I need a break, my eyes are starting to hurt from the strain."

Rye blinked as usual forgetting that Lulu didn't remember much of their biological father. "I'll say both." He decided. He notices her taking hold of his arm and smiles. "Thanks Lulu."
Sprig continued to laugh and occasional squeal as Diantha played him. This had to be the best day ever!
After a while, the group reaches the dining hall and Luna motions a couple of servants forward. "Inform the cooks my son has arrived and we would like some food to celebrate! Nothing to big or fancy, just something we can enjoy." ]
"I want chicken and cookies!" Hawke exclaimed. "Oh can we have cake and pie momma!?

William sat crouched on the top of the road that led down to where their enemies were encamped. He studied them, patiently bidding his time as the men settled down for the night. He sat there for a few hours, eyes never leaving the camp, watching and studying, like a predator stalking his prey. Once William was sure that everyone but the few guards, six he seen, were deep in sleep, he began to lay his trap.
William motioned for a half dozen men to sneak around the perimeter of the camp, and for each men to sneak behind one of the guards and quietly dispose of them. Once that was taken care of, he then ordered a few men to pour oil from large barrels all around the camp, all the while remaining quiet, as well as making sure not to pour the oil near the hostages or the men’s horses. After that, the men returned to him, and they all formed up in two lines to block the road, William at the front of their ranks. He glanced up to where he knew Paul was sitting, and imitated a loud birds whistle, that was his signal. Paul was now supposed to order the archers to fire flaming arrows into the oil, then order a few men to collapse the other end of the road with rocks that they had stacked up, and then let his archers fire at will at the men in the camp.

Paul had waited with the others though he couldn't help but grow impatient. He eagerly wanted to fight and teach these rebels a lesson. However, he kept his position and bided his time. "Sir may I ask you something?" Paul turned to see a younger looking man looking at him. "Speak your peace." The younger man blinks and begins to speak. "Why are we following the orders of this William? He shows up and comes up with this plan and we just go along with it? How do we know he ddoesn't have bad intentions?"
Paul remained silent for a moment before speaking. "Well kid the thing is we don't. He could be working with our enemies and plans on wiping us out entirely. However, I don't get that from him. He's a strange one and that has me interested. Just curious to see where things go." They remained quiet until Paul hears the bird call. He raises his hand then points to the camp. The archers light their arrows and send a volley of arrows at the camp and igniting the oil.

Lulu smiled as she said," Your Welcome big brother." As they walked into the kitchen she chuckled at the boys and said," Wow was this what I was like when I was their age?"

Revelation just smiled as his wife and Rye continued to talk. He was so glad Rye and Lulu were still on good terms. He then glanced over to where Diantha was still entertaining Sprig and he grinned upon hearing his delighted squeal. “Awww.” He said happily.
Diantha laughed in delight as Sprig laughed again. “Awww you’re such a cutie, Sprig!” She said happily. She then looked up as they arrived at the kitchen and she looked back to Sprig. “Are you hungry, big man?” She asked the toddler.
Nova moved back to Hawke and looked up at his big siblings and his parents. “I’m hungry too!” He said happily.

Lulu looked at her mother and chuckled and said," Yeah that sounds more like me." She looked at Diantha and asked," Would you like to feed him, or do you want to give him to me?" She wanted to make sure her new sister-in law was conferrable and not being push to do anything that she didn't want to.

Diantha looked over to Lulu as she spoke to her and she smiled, lightly bouncing Sprog a couple times in her arms. “Oh I think I can feed him, as long as he lets me.” She said happily. She’d occasionally visit their neighbors back home in the Elf kingdom and some of them had young children so she’d occasionally help with lunchtime. “Unless you would prefer to.” She added, looking back to Lulu.
Scover nodded softly as Valex said he was getting tired. “I’m sure the teacher would be okay with that. How is your magic supply? I can give you some of mine if you can’t expend any more.” He offered.

Luna walks over to one of the chairs and sits down. She knew the cooks wouldn't be long and hoped they were stressing over what to make. "Come and sit everyone. I don't think we will have to wait long."
Hawke quickly climbs over to his seat and settles down. He motions for Rye and Nova to come over. He couldn't wait to eat something sweet!
Sprig nodded his head eagerly and looked around for some food to shove into his mouth. Mom and dad said that was bad but it was so much easier!
Rye walks over and decides to sit in a open chair next to Hawke. He leans back and glances over to the doors that lead to the kitchen. He could only imagine what delicious foods the chefs were making.

Lulu chuckled as she said," Oh no I will let you get to "enjoy" what it is like to feed my child. All I can do is give you my condolences and best wishes." She then walked over to one of the seats and smiled at Diantha.
Valex shook his head and said," I will be fine, but I will need a couple of minutes for my eyes to feel better." With a groan he then said," I still can't believe we have to do what should be the teachers job."

Jay walked over and sat down beside his wife, kissing Luna softy. “I hope so too love. I’m sure everyone is hungry.” He said happily, watching as Revelation walked over and sat down with Lulu. “This is so nice, love.” Jay said softly.
Nova laughed happily and ran over with his two brothers, sitting on Rye’s other side. “I’m hungry…” the boy said as he leaned on Rye.
Diantha playfully glared at Lulu as she walked over and she sat down. “Ohhh he won’t be that bad. Right Sprig? You won’t be bad for your big auntie right?” She asked, lightly tickling Sprig again.
Scover nodded softly and he just shrugged a bit. “Well I’m guessing not even they can get accurate readings as much as you can. And together we can negate dangerous spells or spells running rampant. There’s very few negation spells and even they’re not perfectly effective or as quickly Cast.” He said gently.

Lulu chuckled as she saw Diantha and stuck her tong at her playfully. She then looked at Rev and asked," SO darling, what are you feeling like having when the food get here."
Valex looked at Scover and said," While you have a valid point, I must disagree in one place. We are students, not teachers so it shouldn't be up to us to act in the capacity of one for tasks such as this."

Revelation smiled and gently hugged his beloved wife close. “Hmmm well we’ll have to see what is brought out. I could really go for anything right about now.” He replied, lightly nuzzling Lulu’s neck. “What about you my love?”
Scover huffed and just nodded. “I know but think about this. Maybe the teacher will give us extra credit or something. Plus all teachers usually have student volunteers help occasionally. This is just our time for today.”

"This is very nice." Luna said leaning back a little more in her seat. She loved seeing her family together once again. "I'm doing my best to remember this moment to remember later when things are tough."
Sprig nodded his head and giggles once more.
"I'm hungry too." Rye said and impatiently strums his fingers against the table. "Give it five minutes and we will be chowing down on the best food in the kingdom!"

Lulu smiled as she said," You know what I always want dear, well that and some apples." She then gave him a small wink as she chuckled. She hoped that the younger members at the table wouldn't get what she was saying.
Valex let out a sigh as he said," That better be the case or I am really going to be annoyed." He took the cloth off of his eyes once again and said," I think that I should be able to finish it up if we hurry."

Rye overhears his sister and does his best to ignore it. "So boys!" He said looking over at Hawke and Nova. "What have you and your sister been up too? Learn anything new or preformed any magic?" He needed a distraction and was eager to catch up with his younger siblings.

The camp erupted in a fury as men scrambled from their tents, either they or their possessions burning. The men frantically tried to escape as the fire raged and the arrows rained down upon them. They cried out in dismay when they realized that the way they came was sealed off, and that the rock wall along the sides was too steep to climb. So, they did the only sensible thing they could think of. They brandished their weapons, and charged towards William’s group, since that was their only way out.
“Hold fast!” William shouted to the swordsmen that were gathered with him, armed with shields and spears. The spears were more wieldy in the narrow confines of the road than a sword, and had better reach, so the soldiers had no problem holding their ground and taking out the panicking raiders. William stabbed with his spear, and bashed men with his shield, an immovable force to be reckoned with. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a sword blade slashing towards the man fighting by his side, and he knew that it would slip past the mans guard if William didn’t do anything. He bashed the man in front of him, that he was fighting, with his shield, then turned his spear and took out his comrades attacker.
William pushed the man by his side back, and pulled another man forward to take his place. “Fight hard, and when you get tired, have a man replace you.” He commanded while still fighting. As the battle progressed, the odds continually increased in their favor. The bodies of the dead raiders lay piled up, giving William and the men with him an even greater advantage of height as they stood atop of the piles. It became impossible for the raiders to win. “Surrender now, and there will be no more bloodshed this night!” William yelled, his voice echoing within the confines of the rocks.

Marcus had been sleeping soundly until the sounds of yelling woke him up. He races out of his tent and looks around in shock. All around him were men running around and fighting some men he could just barely make out. He narrows his eyes and goes back into his tent to grab a few things before racing back out. He lights his sword on fire and starts walking forward. He used the nearby fire to attack the soldiers and strike down anyone in his way.
He could hear a man yelling out orders and figures that was the leader. He growls and follows the sound ready to kill. If he must die, then he would die on his feet and to send send as many of these intruders to the eternal flame.

Revelation laughed lightly and nodded. “How you haven’t turned into one of those still amazes me. If Sprig takes after your sweet tooth our sugar supply will be in serious trouble.” He said with a playful smirk. He then looked over as Sprig and Diantha continued to interact. “She’s so good with him.” He said with a smile.
Diantha grinned as little Sprig giggled and she continued to hold him so he could see everything going on. “You’re such a little cutie, Sprig.” The elven woman said, smiling as she lightly kissed Sprig’s head.
Nova smiled up at his big brother and continued to hug him. “We’re learning a lot in school! We learn lots of letters and number and it’s haaaard.” The boy complained. “But Hawke always gets it really quick! He’s smart!” The boy said.
Scover just nodded and watched as Valex revealed his eyes again. “Ok, let me k ow if I can help any other way.” He said, looking over the remaining array of students.

"Don't fret Nova." Rye said placing his hand on Nova's shoulder. "Everyone learns at their own pace. Learning magic and doing math were pretty hard for me until I got older."
"Nova is faster and stronger than me!" Hawke said piping up. No matter how hard he tried, Nova always won whenever they wrestled one another.
Sprig leaned back against Diantha's chest and watched the other members of his family. After that he stares down at the table and tries to grab at the empty plate in front of them.

Nova grinned as his big brother reassured him and laid his hand on his tiny shoulder. “Thanks Rye!” Nova said happily, breaking into a smile. He then leaned over and listed to Hawke talk. “That’s true. We’re both good at things!” The boy said with a grin, holding out a hand for Hawke to high five.
Diantha looked down as she heard her plate move and she chuckled. “Hey there little man, be careful. You don’t want to cause a plate to break.” She said, letting Sorig hold the plate but also keeping two fingers clamped on it just to make sure he didn’t try to throw it.

Rye turns his attention to his wife and nephew. "What are you up too?" He questioned. "You can't eat the plate little one. Trust me, it doesn't taste good."
Sprig looks up at Rye. "I wanna eat!" He said simply.

Lulu looked at Sprig as he reached for the empty plate and instantly felt her maternal instinct to go over and take the plate away. However, she didn't do anything cause she trusted her brother and Diantha. That didn't keep her from nervously tapping her foot on the ground. She then looked at her younger brothers and said," Oh yeah I forgot to say, that in a couple weeks I will begin your basic magic training."
Valex groaned as he started again telling the remaining students their affinities and level. Once done he rubbed his eyes before covering them up again. He put out his hand and asked," Mind giving me a hand my vision gets a bit blurry from prolonged use."
