Aelfwine's touch was soothing to say the least; his twitching, infuriated skin began to cool and his breaths began to steady under the influence of the womans cooing words. How nice it was to hear someone else's kind words for a change - it was always Tilney giving the cheers of salutations and warm welcomes, words of encouragement and humble offers. When was he ever given that in return?
It was only from the likes of Maude he recieved such kindness, and now Aelfwine. Perhaps everyone else was much too busy in their own lives to stress a simple 'good day'. But now was not the time for wallowing on thank you's or kindness he may or may not be owed, for there was a great task to be done. A new challenge had arisen which involved a trek to the Dragons Throat. He would seek out the one named Nephele - the woman claiming to carry his children. He'd never learned the amazonian's name, and to his horror Nephele had fit her description remarkably well as if he had been whispered it before. It was a task that at the present time seemed quite impossible. With his relationship with glasgow in pieces after their own affair, he didn't know who to count on to watch Maude and he couldn't ask that much of Aelfwine alone. Besides, it would be such a soul destroying trip. To visit his children and then leave them without a father would be gutless as ever . Perhaps it would weaken the blow if he just kept away? Then came the task of telling Maude. How would he do this though? Would she even understand? She was not yet of an age where she could comprehend how offspring came about, how it could be possible for other brothers to exist without Arah. It would be a cruel process of understanding, one he would have to try his best to explain to her. All Tilney could do was nod to his sister, and pray he could get through it. |
