2697 Private Party (Part 1)

"If I may, with all due respect, your customs are idiotic." Le'Ahy said after discussing with the members of Setraliie's delegation for a while.

"What do you mean?" Ilthin frowned, feeling offended.

"I mean, take Lord Verhen. There's only one of him and limiting him to one woman is detrimental for the whole Mogar. This way it will take forever for his species to multiply."

"There's no rush." Sylpha replied, feeling the issue touching her very closely. "What are a few decades in the lifespan of a Divine Beast? The blink of an eye."

"She actually has a point." Contrary to everyone's expectations, it wasn't Ilthin speaking. "The humans already got their share. He's half human and half beast so it's only fair to mix the Tiamat's bloodline with an Emperor Beast as well.

"My daughter is a powerful mage and has developed a deep bond with Verhen which makes her the most reasonable choice." Fyrwal the Hydra stepped forward while pushing Faluel in front of her.

"Mom!" Even Faluel's toes turned red.

"Don't 'Mom' me." Fyrwal's voice was that of an angry parent disciplining a brat throwing a tantrum. "You belong to one of the five founding pillars of the Kingdom and Verhen's the new one.

"You shared your home and knowledge with him to which he replied by giving you a priceless gift. Do you deny it?"

"No, but-" Before Faluel could wish for Mogar to kill her, someone else butted in.

"Not so fast, you old hag!" Feela said. "There's no point in adding more Dragon blood to the mix and from a diluted well at that. The most logical choice is someone from the Griffon bloodline.

"I candidate myself, but I'm willing to step down if someone from a pure bloodline comes forward."

"Who are you calling an old hag?" Fyrwal was about to escalate the conflict when someone else raised the ante.

"The beasts can solve their dispute later but since we are discussing the issue, then the Eclipsed Lands demand their fair share!" llthin said.

"And so does Setraliie!" Le'Ahy didn't care whose coattails she rode as long as she got what she wanted.

"Well, too bad this isn't a democracy!" Kamila stomped her foot hard enough to cause a shockwave. "No one but me touches my husband. I don't give a damn if slowing down the spread of his race is detrimental for Mogar.

"Lith is mine! Mine! Mine!" Then, she conjured a hologram of the planet between her hands and shattered it under her foot before clarifying: "Mine!"

"But, sweetie, no one is saying that you can't be part of it." Ilthin said, trying to calm Kamila down. "I've offered him first and then you a threesome and neither of you turned it down but you also didn't reply. What if-"

"No means no! End of discussion. Are we clear?" Kamila cut her short.

"What she said!" Lith had taken a few steps back when that madness had started, sending Kamila forth because she held a power no one could question or defy.

"But-" Fyrwal tried to say.

"I said, are we clear? Yes or no." As her blood pressure rose so did Elysia's.

Feeling her mother's distress, the baby readied for a fight and triggered a ripple effect through her blood that alerted her grandparents.

The sky screamed with thunder and the earth grumbled with quakes.

Tyris' light, Leegaain's fire, and Salaark's life and death energy manifested behind Lady Verhen's back, heralding the Guardians' coming and their wrath.
