He tells her it was already decided He doesn't like her He doesn't want to be around her Something about her that unsettled him An Elder from the Seelie Court has summoned him to the Head Mistress' office Quinn hurries to the office Nervous about what this is about Inia, Blood of My Blood Hid Da's sister, his aunt Wishing him a Happy Graduation Has something for him His Da's chest No key to open it No idea what is inside History is shared Quinn is the grandson of King His Da renounced his Da and did not want anything to do with his Da or being a Prince or, eventually, King. King has been searching for Quinn's Da for years Does not know about Quin Would capture, torture, and possibly brainwash you if he knew your Da was dead Your Da settled down when he met your Mem and had you. Went to the Outland to live in a Military base as a trainer Your Mem didn't like it but could do nothing Eventually, the King found you, Da, and took him away Quinn goes over to the trunk, sees a symbol on the chest, and places his hand on it. He feels a slight tingle in his hand and withdraws his hand away from the chest; everything freezes around him Inia does not move, and Quinn cannot get her to speak When he attempts the door, it will not open A flickering glow comes from the chest A green flame is burning No heat is felt Water does not put it out Quinn goes to the door and attempts to open it and feels heat from his shirt pocket He takes his shirt off and finds a mud ball with a green flame burning around it Recognizes the mud ball from the Snail Thought he left it in his Niche Grabs water pitcher and pours it over mudball flame Nothing happens to the flame Flames are no longer hot to touch It falls apart to reveal the key, also burning green Gently touches the key and finds no heat He picks up the key and goes back over to the chest Placing lock in left-hand Inserting the key into the key chamber Turning the key until a loud clicking sound is heard, unlocking the chest Quinn jerks back his left hand in pain Left has a fresh red welt from a burn mark of a strange design he has never seen before. The pain is intense but is somehow subsiding Inia continues to talk as if she never stopped talking Quinn tells her of what occurred He shows her his hand He asks her to leave while he examines his Da's chest Quinn opens the chest Quinn finds a Heraldic Shield Three wings long One and a half wings in width The design on the shield is of a Long Sword pointing downward with an ornate golden hilt The shield has serrated edging to inflict damage A Long Sword is found The blade immediately brightens to a firey green without the heat Cannot let go of the hilt He calls his aunt, Inia, back into the room She recognizes the weapon and shield. The shield's design is that of Iomadae, the goddess of Righteous Valor and Honor Quinn's Da must have made a Pact with the goddess to get these weapons to aid in his combat. He must not have had these when the King took him away Because Quinn's Da could not fulfill the Pact, it has fallen to Quinn. Meira Halrond Heijor, Meira's Da Brown Elf Very Wealthy Nyhadora, Meira's Mem Sun Elf Moderate wealth Halrond's gre-Mem cast a curse on Nyhadora because she was a Sun Elf The spell had two trigger points The first trigger point was after the birth of Meira Nyhadora was turned into a pixie who was fixated on herself to the point that she needed to constantly look at herself in the mirror and became violent when she wasn't. Halrond had to send his wife to one of their private houses because she became too violent around everyone. The second trigger occurred when Meira celebrated her two hundredth birth celebration. She changed physically. Her eyes developed a yellow tint, allowing her to perceive heat signatures in pitch blackness. Her hearing became so acute she could hear a heartbeat behind a wall 25 ft away around a corner. Her sense of touch was so sensitive that she could feel the difference in the stones on the floor after someone had passed over them within 60 minutes. Changes in Meira's Nature Did not purposely want to be around people Yearned to learn as much as possible about certain subjects Sudden liking of ballads, folk songs, storytelling, Bards and then would kill them Meria contacted her D to get he into his (secret) club's library Wanted all the woulds she favored Would keep the Magick books Cast the Command spell on her Da Used Blak Magic to make her Da a Mind Slave She would make suggestions and her Da would think they were his ideas |
