M:   Askad, as slowly as possible, moved away from the bed so the infirmary workers could move Maria's body away, being very careful not to wake him up. Sofia pulled a blanket off another bed and brought it to her father, then climbed up with Heinz to snuggle with him.

Sabeth stared at the interaction between the human and eternals with complete and utter confusion, he didn't understand how these enemy species could be so harmonious with each other, Esha smiled in amusement at this and ran her hand through his fur, saying that he would understand this with time.

A bit later, Rowen popped in and asked, "Is Saxon ok to leave, BE and Royal want to show him and Anglo something, they said that Esha could come too if she wanted."


N:   Saxon perked up when his name was mentioned, "I think I am ok to leave," before getting out of his bed. However, he paused for a moment when a letter addressed to him caught his attention, so without causing a delay, he quickly swiped it and followed Rowen to wherever BE and Royal were. While they walked, he opened up the letter and couldn't help smiling. "Finally, some good news," he said to himself before folding the letter away.

They headed to one of the many rooms in the compound, and when they walked in, Anglo was in the middle of a conversation with BE, the former seemingly looked impatient. "Where is proof that he is actually dead," the winged country asked, "even if you saw him die, he can come back to life. He already did it once, and there is nothing stopping him from doing it again."

"Now that Saxon is now here," Royal interrupted, stepping between the grandfather and grandson, indicating to the approaching entity, "now you will get the proof that you wanted." She beckoned them all to a table, where there was a cloth covering something up in the middle of it, and when she was sure that she had gotten their attention, she pulled the cloth away to reveal Suebi's decapitated head.

The people nearby took a step back from the sight, repulsed by the blood and lifeless head, however, the four Brits didn't move a muscle as they looked at the remnant of Suebi in silence.

"Burn it," Anglo muttered after a moment, looking back up to Royal, "burn it and make sure that I never see his face ever again. Am I clear?"

The hybrid nodded before wrapping the head back in the cloth and slinging it over her shoulder like a bag before heading off outside to set up a fire.


M:   "Let me join you," Esha said, she came with Rowen and Saxon since she was curious about what was going on, "I very much what to see that cunt go up in smoke, and I think I can figure out how to keep him in Jastrem with the ashes."

"Yeah, because that's a very normal thing to say, Esha," Rowen joked, mostly to hide his discomfort at seeing Suebi's head again, "should we be worried about that?"

Esha didn't give an answer, just a mischievous smirk, so Rowen ignored it and slid down to the floor, overwhelmed by his own thoughts.

"What am I going to do," he muttered to no one in particular, "how can I trust my husband to be near Johann after that, how could I trust him altogether after what happened, he's a wolf in sheep's clothing, he's worse than that. Has my whole life been one giant lie?"


N:   BE watched as Rowen sat on the floor, listening to him muttering, so he walked up to the Mandorian and crouched down. "That is something that you and Mandoria have to discuss between yourselves; how you see him and vise versa so that you both of you know your standing."

The empire glanced behind him, seeing how Callum and Johann were talking to each other, the two people who were close to Heinrich but don't know enough to properly help him. So he added, "And just so you know, be more aware of your surroundings. Say what you said louder and your son would have heard you."
