Welcome to Gaia! ::

Emnast nods slowly. "One of the strongest void mages to have ever lived, Passura. Never forget that. So if he tells ye duck... do it. It may save yer life..."

Emnast chuckles. "Oh ye'll meet him by and by... just think on this... iffin yer walking down a hallway and ye meet someone who looks like one of yer kin... it ain't.. got that... seriously... be polite... use yer manners... and leave him alone."

Bez sighs. "Is he as dense as he seems?" he asks Emnast in mock seriousness.

Emnast sadly shakes his head. "Naw, he's an innocent... something ye or I haven't been for so long now, we don't know how to handle it. Heck, if I didn't know better I'd say the girls were more worldly than him"

"Hey!" protest Passura in alarm. "What's wrong with that?"

"Not a thing." laughs Em with a grin. "Except it has to be driving Kero mad with impatience....

Bez smiles. "I actually think you may have met him here... when Keveka was having trouble. He did stop by, but didn't stay very long. Once he saw Amestru had things under control he slipped back out. He's Ai's uncle... he called him Uncle Jor... but his real name is Jörmungandr."

Emnast chuckles. "Yes and no... He's a snake, Pasa... a really really big snake... really really really big... big enough to encircle the world and eat his own tail... But when he wants to visit, he comes to us in a much smaller form... or... in a shape kind of like yer own, but not quite. He's Lyssan's brother. Believe it or not, they are twins."

**oh yeah... I'm with ye on that... twisted **

Emnast begins to laugh so hard he can't control his tears, tiny crystalline droplets fall on the table making the girls giggle and chase them about the room as they bat at them with their paws.

Bez shakes his head. "From what I gather... ye call him that and he'll bite yer head off... he refuses to acknowledge he's old... unless of course yer bowing down before him in homage... then he'd probably do what Em is doing right now... laugh himself silly. Girls! Gather them up when yer done... If I set on a single one tonight in the dark... Yer both going to be sitting in a corner."

"Yesh, Daddy..." comes a dual chorus from the floor.

Bez shrugs. "Wish I knew. One minute we were having kind of a heart to heart talk then he up and hightails it out of there... He didn't say where to, I'm afraid. Only that I should go eat."

Emnast catches his breath and nods. "He's a bit impulsive, my brother... but not without good reason. I'm not sure what he thought he had to do, but it was probably important in his eyes. And once he decides something needs to be done, he does it, no questions asked. What were the two of ye talking about Bezer... if you don't mind my asking."

Bez sighs. "Ye probably can guess it if ye try hard enough. I was moaning and groaning... ye know me."
