DOMINIK

Watching Nat and Lor has been interesting. We all know Lor has... deep affection feeling towards his older sister. They all are waiting for him to break and admit it, but Dom doesn't think it will be anytime soon.

Are you sure you want to find Earth? His father's voice appears in his head.

Dom feels sorry for him, He heard stories about how brave and mighty his father was. That mighty man isn't the man standing with him now, the man standing in front of him is nothing but an empty shell. The only things that keep him going are them, his children. Nat's eyes, which reminds him of their mother's and his face, which reminds him of their mother's face. And the twins, of course, they are her babies, he always says. Lev and Ana, Dom also thinks of Ana as a baby, she is everybody's sweetheart.

I do. You know it has been my dream and my purpose. I'd like to go out there to find Earth.

His father's eyes are looking afar, he looks like in deep thought. There is a possibility you'll find someone to whom your heart belongs to. He began.

I know this. Although he is not holding his breath for that possibility.

Your mother gave me the best time of my life, I'm forever grateful for her, and all of you, our children. But, I also would like to warn you, their life span is extremely short.

Dom knows what is he trying to say, he is warning him from future, inevitable heartbreak. He is warning him, that when his mother passed away, she took most of his soul with her, and he left as a broken, grieving man for the rest of his life.

He wishes him to find the kind of happiness he found with his mother, but he warns him of the heavy grief as payment of the love he felt to a human.

I know, father. Let's focus on one thing at a time. First, all we have to worry about is to get out of the atmosphere.

You'll be fine. He reassured him. You're Relish's origins. Born and raised here. It will be as easy as controlling your element.

He looks at him thoughtfully, they are now at the same height. Was it easy for you when you got here?

His eyes drop to his hands. He closes and opens them slowly.

I had your mother in my arms when we breached in.

Ah... shit. He didn't mean to remind him.

It was very hard for her. I had to stop the time multiple times to keep her bones from breaking, and her veins from bursting. I was scared for her, scared that she might unable to survive it.

But she did. She was strong and magnificent. Dom says putting his hand on his shoulder.

That she was, yes, and much more.

Dom has accepted the fact that every time He talks to his father, it will end up being sad and depressing. But at least, he still have him. He has learned to welcome the grief feeling his father has, especially whenever he is close, because that he looks just like her, which brings comfort and also sadness to his father. Dom doesn't remember her, none of her children do, which is very unfortunate of them. Nat was just a little over 6 months when she passed away, and the twins were still newborn. His father told him that he had always preferred him to mother, which was upset her, but she had three other babies so she was always happy to have his father helping with one. And also, Nat had always been attached to Lor, so mostly it was only the twins.

I apologize, son. He says finally able to pull himself from the memory. It was easy for me, but if you planning to bring back any human, male or female, you need an extra plan.
