Kael Veyris stood tall in the radiant halls of Auroral Haven, his Empresses and Lyra gathered behind him.
Yunareth flicked her nine tails with a teasing curl.
Yunareth: Husband you're going to speak to the Heaven Father alone.
Kael glanced at Lyra and his wives, his expression calm but warm.
Kael: You all go to the Empire. Relax, enjoy the palace and keep the Empire running smoothly.
I have a word to say with the Heaven Father.
Lyra's silver eyes widened.
Lyra: Father! Don't do anything reckless!"
Kael: Relax, Lyra. I'm calm and composed. A soft light shimmered as the Heaven Father's daughter approached, walking with elegance and radiant grace.
Kael: Ah you must be the daughter. A pleasure.
Daughter: I am Seraphina, Lord Kael Veyris. I've heard much of your deeds and your authority.
Kael inclined his head slightly, calm and teasing.
Kael: Seraphina… a name worthy of one who carries Heaven's light.
I look forward to speaking further. But first a word with your fatherKael stepped closer to the Heaven Father, bowing slightly.
Kael: Father your task is complete.
The multiverse is stabilized.
But now, I wish to discuss matters of alliance and presence.
He paused, gaze calm but piercing.
Kael: Your daughter is radiant, indeed and I respect her.
But my wife, my daughter they remain in the Empire.
They are my anchor, my strength.
I handle this alone.
The Heaven Father's golden eyes studied him, a faint smile forming.
Heaven Father: I expected no less, Kael Veyris.
You act with authority, yet never without respect.
Seraphina take note of his balance, his judgment, and his charm.
Kael gave a small, calm smile, turning slightly toward Seraphina.
Kael: And when the time comes I will meet your expectations fully.
But for now the multiverse has need of me.
The Heaven Father inclined his head.
Heaven Father: "Very well. You have my trust for now.
Go, Kael Veyris. Show your authority and wisdom.
Kael nodded calmly, then walked toward the portal back to his Empire, leaving Seraphina watching him with a mixture of curiosity and quiet admiration.
