Lyssan laughs. "I actually think he better wash as quickly as he can. I know from experience that flour can be irritating if it gets beneath the scales. Go on... go rinse off. I'll put these into the oven..."
Passura grins at her and darts out of the cave for the stream.
After he leaves she turns to Kero and sighs. "A word of warning. He's far too happy for a child who has lived through what he has. He's probably suppressing it... be prepared for an eruption when it comes."

*Kero nods*
I'm waiting for it to happen...if he is suppressing it, there's nothing I can do, short of invading his mind...and I refuse to do that. He has to work through it, consciously and subconsciously, before he can heal completely.

Lyssan nods as she slides the tarts onto a baking stone and pushes into a clay oven that Bez had built beside his hearth. "When Tam's suppressed memories came back to haunt him, we never learned exactly what it was he feared or had experienced, he had buried them too deep, but it was obvious it was traumatic. At least you know. That, in itself, should help."

*Kero nods*
I'll be right there when it happens, holding his hand through all of it...but I will let him deal with it on his own as well...that's something I learned the hard way, Ly...if someone else solves your problems in your head....you'll still have them...I did it with Bez's phobia of snakes...but then I talked to him about it, and showed him what I had done....he cured himself...I just helped him take the first step.

Bez snorts through his nose. "Actually, I still have trouble with snakes... but I've noticed that your charge resembles a few lizard like cretures I've met along the way. It is easier thinking of him in that light."

*Kero nods*
But you don't freeze up anymore....that's the first step...you'll recover in time, if you work at it. Now, what say we call my boy back and have some lunch?

Bez hangs the deer in a tree across the glade so as not to have it near the caverns. Then calls for Passura to come and eat.

*Kero as he waits for his son, sets the table with his tentacles, then goes invisible, lifting a cup to his lips to drink*

Bez walks in with Passura, laughing at something the boy says and almost walks into the mage, but the boy's hand stops him. "Mes'sirrah... you are in the way!" he grumbles testily. Bez blinks in confusion and opens his mouth to ask why when....

*Kero unveils himself*
May I inquire as to how you saw me, Passura?

The boy blinks at him. "You were standing right there." he says in confusion, looking at him strangely.

*Kero looks at him...then at Bez...then turns invisible*
Passura....can you still see me...and can you, Bez?

The boy shrugs. "Of course I can... why shouldn't I?"
Bez on the other hand is looking like a storm cloud. "Kerobian... stop playing around and tell him what you are doing."

*Kero turns visible again*
I was making sure, Bez. Don't scold me for scientific processing.
*Turns to Pas*
Passura, I can turn invisible, and I had...that's why Bez didn't see me...and why I was suprised you could see me...
But enough of this....what about lunch, everyone...let's eat!

The boy's eyes light up at the sound of food, but his face remains thoughtful and stays that way all through the meal.
"Mes'sirrah... " he asks once they have finished and he and the mage leave the cave. "Why could I see you and not the winged one?"
