"Oh, trouble is had, don't doubt that for a second." Thomas picks up a napkin and wipes his hands while clandestinely looking up to the corner where Aegis and Aurum still crouch, peeking around the doorframe.

As his eyes fall on them, they slowly disappear around the corner.

"Soooo, um, that is..." Lucida squinches up and looks to Thomas and Regina. "If it's all right, Mama, Papa, I would like to take Adelhard around." She waits.

"All right.  But not beyond the estate." Regina says, folding her hands.

"You did not hear this?" Tirush gives a rare look of genuine surprise. "Yes, Partha and Aegis fought.  They fought, they fought like the light and dark at the dawn of time.  I shall tell you the story, if you wish to hear.  It is thestory of how Danthe and I met, and became husband and wife.  As for your little boy..."

Again, in a rare display, she pauses and considers what she's going to say. "He is...how you say...thom.  Arrow-head.  It is a sound from my people, it means that he has a penis where his mind should be."

She shrugs. "He is a boy, and wishes to sow his seed.  This is well, this is good.  He is strong, and healthy in body, but his mind and heart are weak.  He is no man.  He wishes for things to be this or that, and pouts when they are not.  It is his way."
