Ceals eyes went a pale un-glowy green. A dead glow you could say. His eyes looked sad, his face broken. "I- I've never met my parents." a single tear fell down his face.
"Oh, Ceal I'm so sorry." Brennon told him, looking down not so sure as to what to say.
"Fuck you Brennon. My parents didnt have me. They have no fucking clue who I am and as a matter of fact you dont either. Dont be a dick and say rude shit about my mother." Brennon's eyes went wide. He clearly didnt know what Ceals gift was.
"Ceal calm down everything will be okay." Someone whos voice none of us knew. It wasn't Ceal, it wasnt Hector, or Brennon or Vee, and it wasnt me.
Ceal spun and the sound of this persons voice dropping to the ground. There stood a beautiful woman who looked much like Ceals mother, still looking a bit younger. She smiled sweetly and said nothing, as though she was waiting for one of us to say something for her, or to her.
"Wh- Who are you?" Ceal said his knees slowly digging more holes in the ground from all his force.
She still stood saying nothing, useing her sweet smile. She must have thought something because Ceal ran up to her and hugged her. Her face held tight as she tried to hug back. You could tell she didnt want to. "Ceal, you and your friends have many places to go. Stay together. You need eachother. Scarlett, the fate of my brother is in your hands, you being his keeper. You unlocked the truth of us, of Ceal. He needs you. Your children will need you."
I spoke now, "I don't have children." She looked and Ceal and smiled.
"Would you like to tell her, or would you like me to tell her?" the beautiful woman asked Ceal looking down at him. He shrugged unsure as what to say, so, she said for him, "You and Ceal are to be married. You have no choice, that is the fate of a Hydradil and his or her keeper. You will have mortal children. All but one."
That was the last thing she said before she left.
