"Farm!" Valeron the Second echoed.

"Gods, no! I'm so sorry, little one." Nyka said in horror, realizing how close to eternal slumber she had come. "I didn't mean to teach the kids bad words. I was just passed off."

"Passed?" Lith echoed. "Don't you mean, passed?"

"Is that how you want your children to refer to themselves when they are angry?" Salaark tapped her foot angrily after affecting his speech as well.

"Definitely not." Lith sighed. "Thanks, Grandma. As for you, Nyka, don't worry. My father will go crazy with joy when he hears Valeron talking about farms. At least until he discovers how he came to learn that particular word."

"What happened, child?" Salaark asked and Nyka gave her a short recap of her conversation with the Sekhmet.

"Mother, the Guardian of Children is waiting for Lith." Crevan pointed out while performing a deep bow of respect.

"She can wait." Salaark grunted. "Remind her that this is my turf just like Lith is my blood. Scarlett is my guest and she'd better not forget who gives orders here."

"I'll pass your message." Crevan Blinked away, leaving them alone.

"Don't worry, child." The Overlord smiled again. "Your aunt is experiencing what I call the whiny phase of Guardianhood. It's just a phase and it will pass with time."

"Is it normal?" Nyka asked.

"It sure is." Salaark nodded. "Imagine having voices in your head 24/7, then go into seclusion with a babbling black Dragon as your only company. After that, you get dumped on a self-centered snake, a winged brute, and the worst mad scientist Mogar has ever seen.

"In this order. It's perfectly normal to lose faith in the future and become a grumpy sourpuss. I've seen better Guardians than Scarlett, like Ileza, wear chains, spikes, tattoos, and ridiculous black makeup by the end of their apprenticeship.

"Then they go to Tyris and she takes their heads out of their butters."

"What about you?" Nyka asked.

"Me? I'm not their mother." Salaark cooed at Valeron and Elysia with a warm, soothing voice. "I'm their instructor and I love myself a broken disciple. Much easier to bend and shape them at my will. I let newborn Guardians whine and give them plenty of reasons to keep at it."

"I see. Thank you." Nyka gave her a deep bow.

"You are welcome." Salaark handed the babies back to Lith. "You can go now, but I expect you to come back here for a proper goodbye or I'm going to hunt you down." _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

A snap of her fingers brought Lith straight to Scarlett's dining table.

"Well, this is awkward." Lith looked at the unfamiliar place, the weird appearance of the Sekhmet, and her outraged expression at the violation of her sanctuary.

In this order.

"Kids, this is Scarlett the grumpy Sekhmet. Grumpy, these are my daughter Elysia and my son Valeron."

"Gu!" Elysia said, believing it to be her host's name.

"Papa!" The baby boy's face beamed with joy every time Lith called him son.

"I can see through all of your tricks, now." The Sekhmet said with a snarl. "I know you brought them here to manipulate me and it's not going to work."

And it didn't. For almost three seconds.
