Leaning against the wall, I witnessed the Hydro Archon speaking with Capitano. I tilted my head slightly. 

I chuckled and threw my head back. 

"You declared your loyalty to your god, you are nothing but a traitor to your true god." I breathed out and glanced to my left. 

Scaramouche leaned against the wall. He had no response. 

"You have children?" He looked up at me. I nodded slightly. I kept watching the hydro fuck. 

"Why did it take them 15 years?" I tilted my head. "Why did you take 15 years?" 

He refused to answer, so he got up and left. I watched him leave.

I sat on one of the chairs and watched Zephial and Columbina. 

His cheeks were stained red and Columbina giggled. She locked arms with him and showed him around her tea room. Sephiran was playing with one of Columbina's cats. He laughed and picked it up. 

"Mooooom! Look how fat this one is!" He grinned. "He's so chunky." He showed the cat. 

I giggled. "Yes, he is very chunky." I smiled. 

"Like Uncle Capitano." Zephial breathed out. 

Sephiran burst out into laughter and almost fell. Zephial smirked and crossed his arms. 

"Sephiran, show mom what Pierro taught you to do." Zephial placed his elbow on Sephiran's head like an armrest. Sephiran placed the cat on the floor and nodded slightly. Sephiran opened his palm and a small Cryo spike appeared. 

I clapped my hands and smiled. "How awesome, good job Sephiran!" 

"T-Thank you, mom." He grinned and the spike disappeared. 

"Come on, Sephiran, I'm going to show you how to make Pantalone angry." Zephial laughed and ran out of the room. Sephiran nodded and ran after him. I watched them leave and Columbina giggled. 

I turned to Columbina and she grinned. 

"I always knew your sons would be as adorable as they are now." She sat beside me. 

"Thank you Columbina." I smiled. 

"Do you wish for another one?" She held my hand. 

"I want a daughter this time," I looked at Columbina. "Let's just hope this one is a girl." She smiled.

"Again, thank you for everything Columbina. Your Sanctuary...it's.." I started. "...Out of this world." 

She shrugged. "It's nothing really." She hugged me tightly. I returned the favor.

We had a feast with every Archon tonight. The Electro and Dendro Archon arrived late this afternoon. I didn't want our sons to be involved with the feast but Dottore said it would be a good idea to see how political alliances work. Sylvan was the Electro Archon and Greater Lord Lacour was the Dendro Archon.

Everyone was already sitting down when I arrived. My Harbingers stood up and bowed. Dottore held me by the waist. Zephial and Sephiran walked inside and took a seat beside Capitano and Pierro. The Harbingers sat down and Dottore and I walked inside. We took our respectable seats. I felt Alfonse's eyes on me. 

"I noticed your nation has fighting pits." Alfonse laid his head on his hand. "I'd like to ask, who uses them?" 

"The training Futui."  Columbina answered. 

He turned his head to her. "Did I ask you?" 

"Shut your mouth." Zephiran hissed out. I instantly turned my head to him. Columbina stared at him. 

"Do you know who I am, boy?" Alfonse tilted his head. 

"I don't give two shits." Zephiran smiled. Sephiran smiled and tried not to laugh. 

Alfonse had anger in his eyes and stabbed the table with his knife. Sephiran and Sandrone flinched. Zephiran eyed Alfonse down. 

"Such a harsh tongue for a boy your age." Alfonse hissed. 

"Threaten my children again," Dottore trailed his finger against the blade of his knife. "And I'll shove that pretty little Gnosis of yours up your ass." Dottore glanced at Alfonse and grinned. 

"So tell me, Pantalone." Tatiana looked at Pantalone and he placed down his fork. "Tell me more about your nation's wealth." 

"Coming from the God of Geo herself, the God of Mora, I find this very interesting," Pantalone smirked. Tartaglia yawned. Dottore still held his gaze on Alfonse. 

I glanced at Lysithea. She was talking with Pierro. Two dangerous creatures...speaking like allies. 

"So tell me, Rinea," Sandrone started. Scaramouche turned to her. Rinea looked up. 

"What does your beast eat?" Sandrone's gaze turned into jealousy. 

"Beast? Dvalin is no beast-" Rinea spoke. "He eats whatever he wants." 

"Especially little boys." Alfonse turned to Zephiran. 

"That's so interesting, you can ride Dvalin and he allows it." I looked at Rinea. She turned to me and fear ran through her eyes. 

"U-Uhm, yes. H-He hates riding in the r-rain though." Her hands trembled. The poor girl was dragged into this unwillingly. "H-He doesn't eat little boys, Alfonse." She looked at Alfonse. 

Dottore glanced at me, then turned his gaze to Columbina. Columbina's hand tightened around her knife. 

"No, Dvalin eats fake Archons and their useless excuse for children," Alfonse smirked. Dottore's upper lip twitched. Sephiran tugged on Zephiran's sleeve tightly. 

Alfonse stood up. Lysithea turned to him. She mouthed out something to him but he ignored it. Zephiran stood up instantly. Sephiran stood with him. 

"Ought an Archon or Harbinger teach their son to shut his mouth in the presence of another Archon? Should I teach this little shit some manners, since his own whore of a mother won't do it for him?"

The blow came so hard, blood splattered across Rinea. My eyes widened. 

Sephiran's fist was covered in blood. 

Alfonse laughed and shoved Sephiran away from him. 

"The young one has balls it seems!" Alfonse exclaimed. I quickly stood up and Cryo covered my fingertips. 

"I've realized it now, you both look like the Mora cunt." He turned his head to Pantalone. Zephiran screamed and grabbed one of the knives on the table. He slashed it towards Alfonse. He grabbed the blade and yanked Zephiran forward. He punched Zephiran square in the face. sending him into the wall. The knife fell and clanked against the floor. Hydro covered his body and blood trickled down his nose. 

"STOP THIS AT ONCE." I exclaimed. 

"For the sons of you two, they're weak as hell." Alfonse smirked. "You stay out of this, Charlatan Archon. With a stomach like that, you will end up hurting yourself." Sephiran's hand slid over the knife. 

"Why must we waste time and just deal with the whore now, Lysithea? She and her bastard sons are just a waste of resources and Celestia's time." 

Blood sprayed everywhere and Alfonse stumbled back. He gripped his face tightly and roared in pain. He shoved Sephiran away. Sephiran crashed into Zephiran and fell to the floor. Zephiran fell on top of his younger brother. I quickly ran to my sons. Alfonse removed his hands. 

A large and deep cut crossed over Alfonse's face.
