       Re'Ni laughed with her heart upon seeing the child shard running
       away at the threat of a bath {"Hahahahehi! Oh  ...so cute! Could
       eat up Scout for breakfast instead but then die of diebetes!"}
       she then turns looking around, wondering.. {"..hmmm, something
       light; some roast bugs perhaps! And bonemeal flakes, if have...
       good for scales!"} then it got to her {"Oh! And some Suffar,
       wake-up drink, very strong!"
       -
       Caprima was joyful that she managed to calm Dervis, she smiled
       and joined her palms "A good decision from a good soul! ..This
       is Caprima, Xefr's recent friend and mentor!"
       Cui flew over to Dervis and bowed "Enchantée! I'm Cui   ..your
       father's assistant, a psionic being and old acquaintance of lady
       Caprima" For a moment she turns at Myst who looks rather awkward
       and silent "...and that's Myst, he's also a psionic being  ..and
       very good person too!"

       Tec was glad that Re'Ni was happy, and now had an idea of who he
       could call in for backup if he ever needed it. He thought about
       it for a moment, and then nodded to her, "I think we have
       something like that, though I'm unsure about the Suffar. We have
       some Icol, or Red Coffee as humans call it for whatever reason,
       which would fit that bill, so I'll call for that." Tec then
       flashes his eyes, and the droid servers bring out large bowls
       filled with roasted bugs and flakes of some description as well
       as two barrels that have this red liquid in them.
       -
       Dervis snorted, and while he looked at the newly introduced his
       eyes then fell on Myst, "...Hm. I'm not sure how my father
       garnered such a little group. Even from the few memories I have,
       he liked the company of others but rarely had them come with
       him. Though I suppose mentors, assistants, and psionic beings
       generally do that anyways. But you there, Myst was it? You look
       a lot like my father, if he was a ghost that is. And something
       tells me there is a reason for that." Myst sighed, "That's
       correct. There is a good reason, but I'll let your father
       explain it. For now, let's just say I'm part of the reason you
       were wrongfully left without any parents." This caused the young
       golden Drake to snort in contempt once more, but he didn't press
       the Shard any further. Instead he looked back to Cui, "So,
       you're an assistant huh? What exactly are you assisting my
       father with?"

       Re'Ni clapped her paws at the sight of the breakfast and turned
       to kiss Tec, only to wage a full attack on the food a few
       seconds later {"Ooooh! Haven't eat this long time - Icol smell
       nice too!"} she grabbed a few bugs and cereals with her paw and
       started munching them, then she took a sip from the red
       coffee... {"Good!  ..not as good as Suffar, but feel wake
       already!"}
       Grabbing her barrel with one paw she turned looking back at Tec
       {"Wonder what baby colour scales will have, probably black ..all
       Atzel black! Self start think where grow young one.."}
       -
       The tiny blue dragoness was cornered a little by the question,
       but years in the imperial Qoatl court during her past life had
       made Cui pretty resourceful "Everything really! Keeping him from
       falling down, dealing with angry aliens - I'm quite the diplomat
       you see! - that short of staff..."
       Caprima felt worried and looked back to Xefr to see if he was
       getting any better.

       Tec grabbed paw-fulls of cereal and tossed them into his mouth,
       followed up by a sip from his barrel. He didn't seem to like
       getting close to the bugs. With a smile he looked back to Re'Ni,
       "I also think the baby will be black-scaled, since both of us
       have black-scales. And I doubt that this ship would serve as an
       appropriate place to raise a child, even if it is sizable. Maybe
       Heord, since it is a planet of Dragons. To be honest, I'm just
       happy that I am even fertile in the first place! I... I didn't
       think I was even capable, considering what I am..."
       -
       Dervis knew she wasn't being entirely honest, with his
       profession constantly requiring him to interact with businessmen
       and other corporate types he could sniff out half-truths. But he
       also knew that he frankly didn't have the time to get the full
       story, so he just snorted in response and looked towards his
       father.
       Xefr started to show signs of waking, as his eyes slowly began
       to open. But as the eye that could Dervis finally regained
       vision, he suddenly got up with amazing speeds and turned to his
       son with a look of awe, "Dervis...? Is that you?" The Golden
       Drake snorted again, and got up while looking at his dad with
       disdain, "Yes father. I hope your eyesight hasn't been fading,
       now why did you come here?"
       The Old Black Dragon didn't respond with words, and with a flash
       of his teleported right in front of his son, and then proceeded
       to hug him. Xefr started crying into Dervis's shoulder, and the
       younger dragon was visibly surprised, even taking a combat
       stance before getting pulled in. With confusion in his eyes,
       Dervis started to pat his father's back, unsure of how to
       respond otherwise.

       Re'Ni was too happy as soon as Tec mentioned Heord, even though
       she felt something strange as her mate finished his sentence.
       She drunk more of her coffee and continued {"Ahhh! Thought Tec
       wanted to live in ship  ..glad think Heord better for young one
       too!  ..but what mean 'considering what Tec is'? Tec sick?"} she
       remained looking at his eyes, nothing could really spoil her
       happiness.
       -
       Cui hugged Myst with a big smile on her face, as she was
       watching the touching moment, her blue colour was now a bit more
       light. Caprima on the other hand withheld unsuccessfully some
       joyfull sobbing and remained completely silent with her fingers
       crossed. It seemed she still got it in patching up relations...

       Tec sighed, "It's not a illness. It's simply what I am... I
       suppose I have been lying for some time now Re'Ni. You remember
       what Guardian said he was when you first came aboard this ship?
       How he described that he was a Shard and not a Ghost? Well, I'm
       also a Shard..." He then held up a paw, and dematerialized it to
       show proof. As he put the paw back down it materialized again,
       but Tec still seemed ashamed as he looked at the floor, "That's
       why I was unsure if I was fertile. I'm sorry for lying, do as
       you see fit..."
       -
       Myst was watching the display, and then was quite surprised to
       find that he was being hugged as well. And though he said
       nothing, he didn't actually mind. So carefully he patted Cui on
       the back, and kept watching the father and son bonding with a
       renewed grin on his face. Girmion was also watching with joy,
       but remained silent as to not ruin the moment.
       Dervis was still surprised that his father wasn't running or
       attacking like he had expected, so his voice was layered with
       confusion, "But... You left me... I thought you didn't want
       me...?" Xefr kept sobbing, but responded regardless, "I left
       you, that's true, but it wasn't because I didn't love you. But
       now that I've got the chance to hug the son fate tried to deny
       me, I'm not going to leave you alone again. Just grant an old
       man that, would you?"

       Re'Ni remained in shock for a few moments, then she started
       having various thoughts, but as all the moments of her and Tec
       passed throug her mind she could not remember anything
       malevolent, or any bad feeling  ..in fact she knew Tec loved
       her, even if he hadn't told her that small detail, but she was
       confused. The dragoness shook her head, looking in Tec's eyes
       and reached Tec's paw, grabbing them tight with both her paws
       {"What supposed do? Tec is mate, always.. but.. ah ..don't know
       what self think..  Self stand with Tec even if shard, Re'Ni
       loves Tec and knows Tec loves Re'Ni ..but confused from not
       telling ..and ..and "} her tail started shaking, she freed his
       paw, stood back and started breathing heavily.
       -
       Caprima's joyful sobbing started turning into a sad one,
       remembering everyone she wanted to see again, but she wiped her
       tears as she realised what a nice thing she was currently part
       of and kept watching the moving scene with a serene smile on her
       face.
       As Myst patted her, Cui felt surprised he did and looked at him
       with a satisfied smile. However her eyes soon turned back at the
       two reuniting dragons.

       Tec crumpled, his body falling to the floor and resting his head
       on the table, “Heh… Failed again. Typical of me at this point
       right? Always something I forget, always somewhere I screw up!
       It’s just like Forbidden says, I fail and others are the ones
       who pay. Can’t even tell the truth. Who wants to have a Shard as
       a mate? Nobody, that’s who. How do you even tolerate me Re’Ni?
       Just… How?” His eyes started to cloud up again as he wallowed in
       shame.
       -
       Finally, after a while of sobbing and hugging, Dervis backed up
       and looked at his father. The anger was gone from his eyes,
       though the confusion was still there as well as in his voice,
       “But father… I think I have a lot of questions to ask you, about
       all this.” Xefr smiled and nodded, “Of course son, and I’ll do
       my best to answer all of them. But I think I’d prefer to do that
       in private.” The Old Drake then looked back to the others.
       Girmion got the hint first, “I think that makes sense. Come on
       everybody, the reunited father and son need some proper bonding
       time. Let’s leave them to it.” Myst nodded to this, and walked
       over to the same entrance that let them into the cave in the
       first place. He waved to the others to follow, and then leaped
       and took flight to land on the ground below. Girmion walked over
       to Caprima first however, “Need a ride?”

       While Re'Ni was battling with her inner demons, with demons that
       told her that no one will truly love her, that everyone viewed
       her as a tool and that she had no chance living a good life
       ..however, she also started realising that even if this was all
       a big lie, she wanted to live it, and for all that matters; deep
       down she felt that Tec truly meant everything he said to her.
       She wasn't going to let her illness dictate her life, no, not
       this dragon; with her eyes still unstable and her tail still
       shaking she closed up to Tec without saying a word, her feet
       were slightly stumbling and as she reached Tec she hugged him
       tightly  ...she tried not to think much, or anything at that
       moment, for if she started to think, nothing good would come out
       of it. {"S-shut up. Not say bad things about who Re'Ni loves.."}
       -
       Caprima smiled at Girmion and nodded in agreement while looking
       at the father and son bonding again "Yes, I think I'd like a
       ride my child.". Cui followed Myst closely as he left the cave,
       frequently looking at him while they were freefalling  ..having
       understood what a 'shard' was, she worried a bit about how he
       felt at that moment "You allright fellow spirit?".

       Tec recovered from his own freak-out when Re'Ni hugged him,
       which allowed him to see what she was going through. He hugged
       her back, and was silent for a bit. He didn't know what to say,
       his mind still clouded and telling him anything he did would
       just make it all worse, but he did manage to get out a few
       words, "As you say, my love. As you say..." He was barely
       holding back tears, as he was still fairly certain this was his
       fault for lying.
       -
       Girmion grinned and moved his shoulder down to let Caprima get
       on, and once she was ready he leaped out to follow Myst. The
       Shard already falling spent the freefall thinking about Cui's
       question, and when Myst finally landed he responded, "I'm fine.
       Just a bit... Awkward I suppose. It's strange to learn that Xefr
       had a son, who is technically also my son as well. Consider how
       weird it would be to learn you had a child, see that child, and
       then barely interact with the child at all. I'm not used to
       being this uncomfortable..."
