In Dearg's House

The two women are sitting in the other half of the L shaped couch while Scàthach is laying uncouncious on the other half

Dearg: So do we uh, wait for her to wake up or do I tell you 2 now?

Morrigan: It's better we wait for her to wake up.

Dearg: I guess we are waiting.

After 30 minute of eating Scàthach finally awoken, Scàthach then held her haid

Scàthach: What happened? I had the weirdest dream. A boy with his own Gae Bolg suddenly destroyed my head and when I regenerated, he said that he is my son in an alternate universe.

Dearg: Yeah that's all true.

Scàthach: Wait so what I said really happened!?

Morrigan: Yup.

Scàthach: Including the part about me having a son who traveled from an alternate universe?!

Dearg: Yes.

Scàthach: And I thought after hundreds of years of being alive. Seeing dragon gods. Witnessing the war the 3 Christian Pantheons had. Would have made my personality tougher.

Morrigan: And you fainted when this boy said you are his mom.

Morrigan then looked at Dearg

Morrigan: If you don't mind me asking. Who is your father? Is he a god or another species.

Dearg: Yeah about that. I don't have a father.

Morrigan: Come again?

Scàthach: What do you mean you have no father.

Dearg: Well you see. I wasn't really born. I was made.

Scàthach: Then that would mean.

Dearg: Yes. I'm an artificial Demigod.
Mother created me, using her blood.

Scàthach: How did my counterpart create you?

Dearg: Well she created me out of clay.
She created a baby made of clay. She then asked a goddess by the name of Aruru to give life to that clay. And I that's how I was made.

Morrigan: Aruru. The goddess who created the weapon known as Enkidu.

Dearg: Yes, that goddess. My mother also casted upon me a curse.

Setanta: Why would Master curse you? And what kind of curse is it?

Scàthach: The same curse that I have. He is deathless, Like me.

Dearg: Yeah. Mother doesn't want to be left alone again. I don't know how she did it. She's the only one who knows that curse.

Scàthach: I see. I have not yet learned how to recreate my curse and cast it upon others. It seems your Scàthach is more knowledgeable in magic.

Dearg: Yeah. If you two met, you would look like twins. Except for the hair.

Scàthach: What's the difference between our hairs?

Dearg: Your hair is more lighter purple. While mine has darker shade of purple.

Scàthach: I see.

Dearg: So will that be all? What will you 3 do now?

Scàthach: We now have our answers. We will not bother you any further. And do not worry about the Celtic pantheon. If they somehow found out about you. I'll just tell them that you are my son that I hid for years.

Morrigan: Well this ended way better then I thought. I was actually expecting that we were gonna kill him.

Scàthach: Oh, there is one more thing I wanna ask.
