Celestial Hall
Omni POV
The area the meeting was taking place was a dimension of only white, except for the seven giant balls of light that radiated colors of different wavelengths.
" This injustice can't be allowed to persist without retribution otherwise, other celestials will see it fit to breach our dimensional walls again!, we need compensation" Aerisyl spoke with clear hatred in his voice for ever had the gal to cross them.
"Cool your spirit brother, we don't even know who sent those souls through the dimensional wall in the first place, and you need to remember there are other celestials who we can't mess with, shall I remind you we all nearly died because of your challenge to TOAA." Verdalyn said with clear disappointment at his brother's lack of foresight.
Noxira seeing that her little brothers were finished in their little argument, asked the oldest and strongest among them
" Brother what did you get when you interacted with them before?"
Ignara hearing the question took a moment of silence no one knowing what was going through his mind at the moment responded with his usual emotionless tone.
"When I first sensed the foreign energies, I tried eliminating them but it would seem they have inbuilt defenses and they only needed a few moments of exposure to my celestial energy to get aquitened to it" he released a small sigh, the only sign of what he was feeling.
"Now when ever my energy interacts with theirs mine is absorbed at integrated into theirs, and of the seven that arrived they only need to sacrifice two, one was split into two but the two healed into complete souls due to my energy so it doesn't seem like a sacrifice, the other was pulled into a time gap that was formed due to the collision of energies but I still sense it 300 years into the past" with that he finally finished.
To that Noxira responded with a sigh.
"So what you are saying is that since you can't do anything we can't either since our energy is an ofshot of yours, and let me guess you can't trace their origins.?"
The silence that followed was all the answer she needed.
Amethyne finally entered the conversation with a question of her own
" So what is it that we can do here.?"
"Nothing but observe for now, but I and we can't let this distrust us from our main battle, the black's beast still try to invade our plane to this day, so while the rest of us keep an eye on the evasion forces Somara and Lunara will keep tabs on the Intruders." lgnara said with a tone of finality suggesting this was the end of the meeting.
Kingdom of Holfort, Bartfort Barony, The Farmshed
On a stormy night and to make it worse for those who believed in ill omens an eclipse was also taking place.
In a shed that lay a few meters away from an opulent mansion, we could hear the labored cries of a wamon giving birth.
" You can do this madam Luce the first one is almost out just a little more, for the children I need you to push"
Balcus hearing the words of the midwife couldn't help but clean her his Jaws for he had never felt this weak before for even in the birth of his two children before the twins Luce didn't seem to be in the same pain that she felt as of now.
The approaching sounds of his two children Nick's and Jenna was what pulled him out of his self-loathing.
"Daddy is mommy ganna be okay?" I Nick's at already 3 years old could already understand that his mother was in a lot of pain, and while Jenna at two couldn't be as intuitive as Nick's she could sense that something was off.
Balcus did bout the only thing he could the hugged his children tight and whispered into their ears
"don't worry Luce is a strong woman and she will make it through" no one knew if he was telling them or arfeming it for himself not even him but it did work in calming his and his childrens nerves.
The moment he heard crying in the next room there was nothing he wanted to do than to run to his wife's side but he knew he had hold it for she had just won half the battle.
A voice in the delivery room proved his thesis
"Madam you're almost there please hang on!"
After what felt like eternity to him, I Balcus finally heard the second cry of a baby, followed by the appearance of Agatha his wife's midwife.
"the delivery was a success both the children are safe and the nun is administering healing magic on Lady Luce so she is expected to make a healthy recovery"
"With this I hope you had your fill of children because I don't think after this Luce will want any more" to to make her next point stick she even gave him a firm slap on the head
"Now go and see your children I'll look after the little ones." only a few dared to treat the lord of their land like this and since Agatha was the person who helped birth Balcus she had a pass to do so.
Stepping into the delivery-room he saw maids (At least the ones Zola allowed him to have help with the procedure) clean what was left of the messy room.
Slowly approaching the bed he saw his wife with clear signs of the ordeal she had endured.
"My love how are you holding?" I his voice was what seemed to have roused her from her sleep.
"My babies how are they, where are they?" I she asked in a flurry.
Balcus seeing his wife's worry for her children clearly exceeding her own wellbeing couldn't help but falling in love with her all over again.
"Luce don't worry the children are safe, but you on the other hand are not so please rest I'll bring them to you" he said at the same signaling for the maid who had just finished cleaning the twins to bring them over.
"My lord the two are perfect replicas of one another except for their eyes the first born has green, while the second one has gold eyes." is the maid said while handing them to their father.
"Thank you Alicia"
With the Twins in hand he cafully sat besides his wife in a way that allowed her to see them
With a small powerless smile she asked "Darling do you have names for the two off them?"
"Leon for the oldest and Lex for the Youngest" he said with a smile
While looking at her two children Luce said to herself
"Leon and Lex four Bartfort, they are fitting names"
The parents sat there in silence not knowing that they were holding the two people to be the strongest of the world where side by side they would change the entire realm's future.
