"My duty." The Firstborn Vampire replied. "1 was born on Jiera, just like my wife and son. We have been forced into exile by the plague and even though I like Garlen, my family still misses our homeland."

"That I know." Lith nodded. "I meant, how can you go there and leave Lysa and Radusk alone in Lightkeep? What if the Undead Courts attack them? Also, you might be immortal, but your wife is human. You should treasure your time with her."

"Da!" Elysia had no idea who the people Lith was talking about were but feeling the sentiment in her father's voice, she nodded.

"I see." Vladion laughed while offering the baby a finger that she sniffed with curiosity before giving it a playful bite. "Fatherhood indeed suits you and you are right. I would never leave them if not for my privileges as one of the Firstborns."

"Meaning?" Lith asked.

"How do you think I got myself and my people to Garlen so quickly without losing anyone? The same way I rescued the undead trapped inside the Golden Griffon. I used my link with the Red Mother to open a Gate and reach her.

"I can do it from any distance, no matter how high in the sky or deep in the ground I am. Back then, Mother was in Garlen and she helped us to cross over. Then, she went to Jiera herself to rescue the young hybrids for her research.

"In the same way, I can go back and forth from Jiera with a moment's notice. I don't plan to stay away from my family for long, just the time necessary to recover my old settlement and establish a base." Vladion replied.

"I see." Lith nodded. "So, is Baba Yaga going to stay in Lightkeep during your absence?"

"Yes." Vladion nodded. "Also, Ilthin is coming with me. This way, as long as one of us is in Jiera, Mother can open the Gate and we can go back and forth to take care of the Eclipsed Lands."

"By the Red Mother, who's this little fairy?" After hearing her name, the Firstborn Banshee had gone to join the conversation but had been dazzled by the baby girl. "Do you know that you resemble your Daddy a lot?"

Ilthin neared her finger as well but Elysia clearly remembered her. Instead of sniffing or grabbing the finger, she shapeshifted into her Tiamat form and attempted to bite it with her small fangs.

The Banshee managed to dodge in time and the clash of teeth produced a snap like a bear trap.

"Hey, that's not cute at all! Why is she so cranky?"

"It seems Elysia remembers you upsetting Kami." Lith checked the baby with the Dragon scales. "Come on. Be nice. Ilthin is a bit creepy but she means well. She helped Mom and Dad get back together."

Such concepts were too complex for Elysia's mind but the contact allowed her to more or less understand Lith's feelings on the matter. She chittered for a bit before going back to a human baby and staring at the Banshee with suspicion.

"Okay. No flirting, no grabbing, no mentions of threesomes. Are we clear?" Lith said.

"Fine." Ilthin pouted yet her bad mood melted away while looking at the six streaks in the baby's hair and at her big, expressive eyes. "Gods, she's so cute."

"By the way, Lith, where's Kamila?" Vladion looked around the Hydra's lair, finding no trace of the Constable. "A mother leaving her baby alone is weird. A wife leaving her husband alone knowing Ilthin is going to be there is even weirder." _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}
