*Gently, Kero places a hand on the tiny bundle, tears flowing more freely now. A Voidmage doesn't cry often, but when they do, the floodgates open*
I will always love him, Luna. Until the end of time. Even as I wander in my wraith-filled home, I will remember him, and Love him, wherever he may be.

Lyssan nods to herself and looks up to the heavens.
"Lunaria... Mother, Sister, Lover, Friend... a life has gone from us. It's skein sadly broken ere it just begun. We return it now unto your keeping, it's shell in the arms of your sister blest. May the spirit find it's way swiftly into your arms. Embrace him... we beseech them. Give him rest."

*Kero steps forward now, and speaks in a tongue unheard to many there, the sibilant hissing of Voidtongue. He too blesses the child's soul, promising it swift passage to Paradise as he lays his hand on his son's head, one last time*

**you frame the miracle... if ye want to have it happen sooner... otherwise, I have an important job for Luna....**
Lyssan waits until he finishes his prayers, then sprinkles the body with pure water taken from the sacred spring.

((Up to you...I see it as simply an intake of breath, perhaps a small flash of light...nothing serious...the true miracle being visible when the life is restored))
*Kero too, sprinkles something on the body, mingling with the ashes*
From dust you are formed, child of my heart and blood. Now, by the dust that forms me, I bid you return, and slumber peacefully.
((A morbid Voidic blessing...basically a fancy way of saying Rest in Peace))

Amestru steps forward with a hand of dirt, taken from the garden they are going to intere the body in. He begins to sprinkle it on the bundle which infruiates Luna.
"Mother Gaia, guard and safe keep...."
"Hey, don't trow diwrt on owr baby!" she cries jumping from Tes's arms and pushing him away. "Baby don't wike diwrt!" she frantically paws at the blankets surface, dislodging most of the dirt as well as the blanket, revealing the tiny face, neither parent has seen since Kero had turned over the body to the wolf king. Luna stops and looks down at it, crooning something softly that only those up close can hear. "Tell dem... tell dem you don't wike that.... pwease... tewl dem."

*Kero gently raises his hands, and Space itself pulls Luna back to his arms*
Shh...Hush, Luna. Let Amestru finish his work. Lady Lunaria will deal with his heart. I have promised his soul peace. Now Amestru and Gaia must tend to his body.

Suddenly he too begins to brush the drit from the blankets and ripping them open.
"Kero... peace!" cries Lyssan worriedly.
Amestru steps forward to pull him away, then staggers back in amazement.

*Pulling his son from the blankets, Kero holds him close*
My son, my son. He lives. I can feel his heartbeat. I can sense his soul. He Lives!

Tes staggers forward. "Kero, please... you can't undo the truth...." then she stops, and reaching for the tiny form begs to hold him, too.
Luna just sits on the altar, glaring at Amestru. "I towd you. Baby no wike diwrt."

*Kero smiles at the sky, whispering a thankful prayer, and turns to hand his son to his wife*
He's alive, Tes...he's alive.

Luna smiles to herself. She has made her daddy and new mama happy. She is so caught up in the moment, she doesn't see Lyssan reaching to pick her up.
"Come here, little Missy.... you and I need to have a long hard talk."
"Eeeeeep!" with an audible pop she disappears, much to the confusion of everyone around her... as if they didn't already have enough to be confused about.
Sighing, Lyssan turns to Amestru. "I don't know why I was never suspicious of her and the name she chose........."

*Kero looks at her*
What do you mean, Lyssan? Should I bring her back? I know where she is.
