The Fallen Angel and the Lion

[InsaneTruth]

"I am a mage... I am a predator no? While Dasuke and Rose are more like plants then people sometimes,"

 

[Ricia]

"I don't think mages are predators..." Tannis said with a look.. then again, mages were the main reason for the death of many creatures for their parts. "I suppose."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"All creatures of power are predators, a hedge witch is as harmless as a butterfly a skilled mage and down armies, I am far to old for such things though,"

 

[Ricia]

Tannis nodded, not willing to argue such a thing. He guessed people could become a predator... "I suppose a prey could turn into a predator. Sorry I don't quite understand some things."

 

[InsaneTruth]

soki just smiled "thats fine,"

 

[Ricia]

Tannis smiled at him, "Thank you. Again." Tannis said.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Thank you for taking in that child, I'm sure you think we don't know her... we do but you may have changed her dark fate, for that you deserve all the help the gods provide," Soki smiled

 

[Ricia]

Tannis gave Soki a look, a look that was one very nervous. He even tensed up, like he was expecting a fight. Anyone mentioning knowing who Shania is always had him ready to fight. "Her name is Shania... not 'that child'. If you know who she is... I ask you to use her name.." Tannis told him. He didn't mean to seem rude, but he had grown tense so suddenly he was almost not sure how to react.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki held up his hands "We mean no harm to her, Shania is a child, and no child is evil by nature. She learned to survive I do not hold any ill will to her for it,"

 

[Ricia]

"Shania is a child..." He said slowly, his child. But he was always wary to say that for many reasons... so kept that thought close to his heart. "A good child."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I don;t know her yet, but I will when she is better," Soki said "We will not treet her any different then if she was your daughter Tannis, trust our word in that,"

 

[Ricia]

"She will be up tomorrow and not wanting to stay in bed..." Tannis said knowing Shania.. "She is like my daughter... we've been together for 3.. 4 years now. It took months to get where I am with her now."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I imagine you have a saints patience," Soki chuckled "Up and about as weak as she is... I hate to say thats not good for her,"

 

[Ricia]

"I can get her to relax, but I won't be able to keep her in bed." He told Soki

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki chuckled "Rather active is she?"

 

[Ricia]

"As hyper as any child." Tannis told Soki with a smile, he had relaxed after the initial confrontation.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"That is fair, Children do have boundless energy." Soki smiled "and they are so creative with how they use it,"

 

[Ricia]

Tannis nodded, they mostly just walked around. Occasionally played or trained. "Then.. i'm glad for your help despite you knowing who she was."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Dasuke knew when she entered his forest, still he went to the aid of someone sick. The man has a kind heart, its him you should thank,"

 

[Ricia]

"When we entered the forest?" Tannis asked with a blink. He had thanked Dasuke, but really he knew Soki was to thank too..

 

[InsaneTruth]

"This forest is all because of Dasuke it talks to him tells him whats happening, all the plants here respect him," Soki said

 

[Ricia]

"That explains a lot." Tannis said. That explained a lot. Of course he would go stalk the moment the forest tells him there was a giant beast in his forest. "I suppose I was a surprise..."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Just a small one," Soki laughed.

 

[Ricia]

Tannis looked at his hands, "I can say I was over joyed when you told me of a forest... I didn't think you lived here..." Tannis told Soki. "I just wanted to find herbs for Shania's fever."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I know... you were being criptic if you had just asked for help we would give it," Soki said.
