Similar childhoods...Alistair could understand, while her smile slipped ever so slightly, his had as well. He had not been lying when he said he would thank his father for what he had done, but that did not mean he would forgive him for all the rest he had done. "Yes, he was actually killed a...

She was so soft in his arms. He could feel her melting into his arms as he held her, and that gentle warmth that seemed to thrum in rhythm with her heartbeat made it difficult for Alistair to imagine ever letting go. It was so comforting, but at the same time so fragile. He could feel this...

Judging by the sound of Livia's voice, Alistair did not need his eyes to know that her patience was wearing thin for some of the twins' antics. He continued talking so as to draw their attention towards him. "Ah, yes, I would encourage you to go see both at least for the learning experience...

Katja's soft voice alerted Alistair to the sensitivity of the situation. It was clear that there were some emotions in the air, that while he could not see them, they were certainly hanging over both of them. He supposed it made sense; he was upending her entire life, and then just sending her...

A small smile pulled at Alistair's lips as he nodded in understanding at Livia's admission. Interests in such things were rare in Vel Anir, if they were not being used for military purposes, but Alistair had long since been encaptured by the history and strange innerworkings of random...'...

An asset. Well, he was glad someone still considered him such a thing. The past few weeks had made Alistair feel like nothing more than a large piggybank to help fund some of Vel Anir's more eccentric projects. He had even been removed from his teaching roles at the Academy for the time being...

"What is the first to break?" A sharp pain struck through Alistair's back as he blocked out the monologue from the man who stood over him. He wasn't even sure why the so-called priest was still at it, as Alistair had gone numb to the physical blows weeks ago. "Is the body, or the mind?"...

Alistair would have snorted his drink out then and there if he had not only just in the knick of time swallowed the most recent sip when the two described him and Liva as 'cool'. They were not words that he imagined would ever be used to describe himself. No, most of the words used to describe...

Alistair could feel Livia's eyes on him, but his never left the cup of warm coffee that had just been set down in front of him. For the longest moment, Alistair said nothing, only the small frown growing at the edges of his lips was the only indication that he was thinking of something at all...

Hmm, he supposed that made sense, although it did not fully answer his question. It normally took training or atleast some understanding of the other persons school of magic for two mages to work perfectly in tandem together. It seemed like for these two that such a skill came natural to them...

Alistair graciously accepted the seat as he sat down next to her, looking out the window down the road where, in the distance, he knew his caravan would be. "A coffee will do nicely, thank you." At this point, the man practically ran on the stuff. He had not been aware that so many Anirians...

"How very...interesting." Alistiar had paused mid-sip to now take a closer look at the twins. His dull grey eyes dug into the two young mages, or would it be one? Now that he took a closer look, without all the chaos of the other partygoers, it was clear to him that they were certainly...

The sound of concrete cracking made Alistair wince as his eyes were quickly alight as he took a long look at the broken slab that now littered the roadway. A gang of workers looked sheepishly at him, as it was clear they had been careless in loading this particular slab into the magical wagons...

Alistair looked aghast when she voiced her concerns that he would just leave her high and dry. He had made promises last night that he intended to keep. That was the least he could do for her, after all she had saved his life. "Oh, I'm sure you do, but...he is more for if you have any desire...

Alistair allowed himself to be pulled away, offering a polite nod of farewell to the others as Livia led their extraction. As they drew further away, Alistair whispered under his breath to her, "Thank you." A nice drink and some more controlled conversation were just what the doctor ordered...
