Just to see Altaires face flourished any hint of anger or furiocity at all, her beauty radiated, even for how tired she must have been... With his, and her children all the more beautiful. He came close to her side, caressing her cheek with the ut most care and tenderness. "They... are truely amazing..." he said gently, though he could easily tell she was exausted, calling in a few maidens to hold the babies, and tend to the other two in the room. Kye sat down on the edge of the bed, leaning down and kissing her forehead. "I would have never expected a gift so wonderful..."
Unfortunately, a messenger ran in with a report. "My Lord! We just recieved word from the outside of the Kingdom!" Kye looked up, disappointed in the timing. He sighed, taking the hand of his lover, promising her his return shortly. He then got up and walked out of the room with the messenger to be briefed. Kye shut the door behind him, then took the letter handed to him, carefully reading over it. His eyes lit up at what it read. He tightened his hand, the paper slightly crumpling, "You can't be serious. The Earth Kingdom's rulers have been assasinated? By who, and what for?" Kye's tone rose a little, "I want details on it, and find out where this person's going, I don't want him endangering my newborn children, nor my kingdom, You understand?"
The man quickly bowed, replying, "Yes, sir! My Lord, right away." He took back the crumpled paper, walking at a fast pace back down the hallway from which he came. He then sighed again, returning to the room. From there he was seated in a chair beside the bed Altaire had finally fallen asleep in, the children were being tended to, warming up in fresh new blankets. Syrus had about 3 maidens on him, and one other was trying to comfort Selys, letting her know he was going to be alright. Though all she wanted to do was hold him in her arms.
He shook his head as he sat, two maidens coming over and bowing, "My Lord, may we treat your wounds?" He smiled and sighed once more, feeling a bit tired. He lazily nodded, allowing them to do their job... This day had been filled with more drama than a whole month of his childhood, in ways he both hated it, and loved it...
