“Malevus has taken all of this so well.” Tari said as she joined you. “I can’t imagine going through the same and be still smiling.”
“Holy Light protected me… and Alric as well.” She replied and smiled.
“Shouldn’t it be the other way around?” Maura said as she carried a tray of delicacies she had baked to the table. “You should be the one protecting Alric?”
All of you picked whatever you wanted, except Malevus who required Tari’s help in eating.
“She has saved me once, so I am just paying back my favour.” You laughed.
Having your family together like this for the first time in months was a joy. You don’t remember when Normand was away this long, it had been just a few days here and there, but not for months.
“I spoke with Maura.” Normand said. “Well we have spoken about this before, but I think the time is right now.”
“For what?”
“I think you should have the farmstead. Taretha is going to give birth in a few months and… you will find that someone…” Normand said to you somewhat awkwardly. These kinds of things weren’t his cup of tea.
“What he is trying to say is that we want to give you some space.” Maura continued. “We can’t be watching over you forever.”
“So you want to move out? Shouldn’t it go the other way around?” You asked them.
“We can ask the Stonemasons to build us a house right next to the farmstead, we wouldn’t be that far away.” Normand told you.
>Yeah that does sound fine. It would be more space for you, Tari and Malevus, and the baby.>Decline, all of you easily fit in your home and you aren’t bothered with having your parents around.>That sounds like a good excuse to build a new extension to your home.>Other, write in>Tell Normand and Maura about you and Calia breaking up.
