The next morning, everyone got to the house bright and early, the prospect of seeing what they had no doubts would be a no holds barred fight between Klaire and Kyubi an enticing prospect.
"First of all, no one tells Carl about any of this. That includes you kids..."
Everyone nodded, as much as Klaire was calm on the surface, they could sense enough subsurface tension and inner turmoil they didn't want to incur anyone's wrath.
When everyone had finished eating, everyone except Lillim, Faylorna and Tiamat sat in silence.
"Enough of this. Let's get this over with, we can go to Archyon. We will guard the spectators with Nergal." Lillim made the declaration casually, earning a hostile look from Klaire.
"Klaire, don't be stupid, you overpowered me completely. We don't know the full extent of your power, would you rather have him present to keep everyone safe, or sulk and regret it when you kill someone?"
