3122 Family Schemes (Part 2)

Jirni told them about her vow to never leave one of her children facing danger alone and her quest for Awakening.

Of how the Myrok had turned her down, forcing her to look for an alternative solution. How one of her allies had Awakened her first and Jiza Gernoff had come to threaten Jirni's life, forcing Orion to Awaken as well.

She didn't hide anything from them.

Not the secret training or the fact that they had stolen Quylla's notes about Awakening and Nalrond's teachings about Light Mastery. The only thing Jirni never mentioned was the identity of her benefactor and the means Vastor had used to Awaken Orion.

"I'm fucking going to kill him!" Friya yelled, taking Jirni by surprise. "We trusted that fat bastard and that's how he repays us?"

'Her intelligence goes beyond my expectations.' Jirni furrowed her brows in a mix of annoyance and motherly pride. 'This complicates things a bit. I need to keep Vastor-'

"I'm going to give Lith a piece of my mind and then the beating of a lifetime!" Friya's rant derailed Jirni's train of thought. "All that Tiamat's mass must have squashed his brain into paste to go behind our backs like this."

'Or not.' Jirni inwardly sighed in relief.

"How could he lie to our face for so long?" Quylla joined her sister in her fury. "I thought that he had finally changed!"

"Respectively, he didn't lie to you and he did change." Orion sighed. "Lith did nothing to help us and is unaware of what we've done. We contacted him right after the Myrok turned your mother down and he did the same.

"He wasn't sure I would survive my Awakening and refused to help us until we shared our intentions with you. Lith said that he wouldn't be responsible for the death of one of your parents unless you had the opportunity to discuss our decision with us."

"He did?" Friya and Quylla said in unison, taking a mental note to apologize to Lith later.

"If Lith didn't help you, how did you survive, Dad?" Quylla asked after calming down a bit. "I had just a deep violet core and I would have died if Lith hadn't… been there."

Jirni noticed the lie by omission and that something big lay under the pile of crap but she didn't pry further.

"I won't share the identity of our associate for their own safety." Jirni replied. "I can only tell you that your father made up his mind and accepted the risks before undergoing the Awakening procedure, even going against my wishes."

"It's true." Orion nodded at the girls, anticipating their questions. "No, your mother didn't manipulate me into doing it. It was my choice. Just like she started all this damned thing against my better judgment."

"What thing?" Friya asked.

"Let me finish." Jirni told them about the Myrok's threat on her life last so that they could understand why their parents had gone to such lengths and the reason Friya and Quylla had been kept in the dark about the crisis at hand.

"You were so happy about your marriage, Quylla, and I didn't want to ruin everything for you and keep Phloria's death hanging over your head." Jirni said. "As for you, Friya, you already had that blockhead of Nalrond to worry about."

"Yes!" Morok said clenching his fist and drawing everyone's gaze upon himself. "What are you staring at? Can't a guy celebrate the first time no one blames him for anything in a long-ass family speech?"
