Bez sighs heavily. "I know... I know... I... I just wish I wasn't running blind here. Sometimes I feel so... helpless. It's been twenty years... and they've weaned... that's just about all that has happened. Sometimes I wonder if... if it isn't because of Ai... if her sleeping has anything to do with it."

"Is... is she ever going to wake up? I'll wait... I'll wait for as long as it takes... ye know I will... but..." his voice trails off uneasily and he shakes his head. "Sorry... I shouldn't be burdening you with that."

*Kero puts a hand on his shoulder*
Give me one night, okay...I will be able to tell you after that.

"Do you... do you really think you can?" he asks with desperate hope.

No...I'm sorry, Bez...but it will be a miracle if I do.

The angel's face falls and he nods slowly in return. "Yeah... I... I kind of guessed that much already. I'm just about ready to go storming the gates for help... and I would... iffin I knew it would do any good...." he says softly hanging his head.

*Kero puts a hand on his shoulder*
I give you my word I will do what I can...In fact...go eat...I'm going to try something....
*Teleports off, pulling out a different pipe than before...a silver pipe, a gift from his mate...the very same pipe used to tame him...now he used it to play a song...a song unheard, save by Two individuals...Kero and the one he served above all others....a song of longing...of the pain and anguish felt by separation from one's lover....of the all-encompassing desire to return to one's children....of the horror of a split family....above all, the image of a puzzle, a beautiful picture, but with a very important piece missing from the whole*

Bez carries the dishes inside and sits down at the table with the others. When Passura asks where Kerobian is, he shrugs. "He took off saying he wanted to do something. I'm sure he'll be back soon. So... tell me about the void, kid. I haven't been there is eons... what's it like?"
Sp Pasa tells him about Kero's home and Rhea and the kids... about his school room and the odd different rooms, some of which seemed to open to the outside but really didn't.

*Kero, in the meantime, continues Piping, as Pasa smiles at Bez*
Mes'Sirrah has changed the Void, I think...was it always civilized?

Bez shakes his head with an amused chuckle. "Civilized! Heaven's no! It was insanity at it's best. Time warps ripling through it without any sort of pattern, rhyme or reason... creatures out of nightmares... no way would I have called it civilized."

Well...the creatures are still there...and the time-warps...but Mes'Sirrah seems to keep things somewhat civilized...what's a Morkoth, by the way?

"It is an aberration... a squid like creature... why? You haven't tried to wrestle one, have ye? Ye'd lose iffin ye did... They play dirty... go fer the brain... take ye over.. that sort of stuff." says Bez readily. Then he looks closer at the boy and sighs. "Ye did try to mess with one... or should I say one messed with ye... what happened? Wanna talk about it?"

*Pasa shivers*

"Yeah... I know what ye mean... it stops ye cold and yer screaming in yer head... only nothing comes out." says Bez quietly and Passura can see that the angel may have never faced the nightmare but he had experienced the imprisonment in one way shapre or form. He looks up at the boy and nods. "But yer here... so Kero must have been close. Otherwise..."
