Salihn moved through the keep towards the kitchen to gather some breakfast for them and entering she found Yenna at the counter preparing. As the door closed Yenna glanced up and gazed at her then bowed low.
"My lady, how may I be of help to you today?" she asked politely.
Salihn smiled at her as she moved towards the counter she stood behind.
"It would please me greatly if you would call me Salihn, and also help me gather a small tray to bring up for myself and Sol – Fen'Harel," she said awkwardly.
"I will if you would call me Yenna," she said pleased as she grabbed a small tray from under the counter.
Salihn broke into a large smile and nodded her agreement.
"Thank you Yenna, our son is being especially fussy this morning and only wants his father unless he's hungry...then I am worthy of his attention."
Yenna laughed as she placed some fruit on the tray and moved to gather some bread and meat.
"Children are difficult at any age," she said while placing items on the tray. "My own daughter did not want me for many moon phases, only her babae." She said with a smile in memory then gazed at her sympathetically. "It will pass," she said with a knowing smile.
Smiling at her she took the tray as she slid it towards her.
"Thank you – for your wonderful food and...your wisdom." Grasping the tray she turned and left the kitchen.
Entering their rooms she found Solas talking with his son as he fussed and gazed at her seeing the tray.
"Hush esha'lin, mamae min amahn" he said calmly kissing his head.
"Ma serannas vhenan," he said as he took the cup of coffee she handed him.
"Making any progress with our son?" seeing his look of frustration she laughed and took a sip of her own coffee.
"Stubborn like his father," she commented as she placed a small plate next to him on the table.
Solas gazed at her lovingly and put his coffee down to pick up a piece of fruit.
"Or like his mother," he commented quickly before placing the fruit in his mouth.
Laughing she took her small plate and glanced over to see Mahana chewing on her rattle happily.
"Will you awaken my memories today?" she asked watching him carefully seeing him slightly stiffen at her question.
Taking a small sigh he popped another piece of fruit into his mouth and saw that his son was done with his fussing and moved to lay him down with his sister and hand him his matching rattle. When he picked it up he felt the protection enchantment and saw the intricate carving along the handle that looked familiar and looked at her curiously.
"Where did you get these rattles, vhenan?"
Salihn smiled at his diversion tactic and picked up her coffee and took a sip before she answered.
"Abelas gave them to me when I was still pregnant with the twins, and that was not an answer ma'lath."
Solas gazed at her a moment with an unreadable expression then sat down gathering his plate.
"I will call the council so we can bring your locked memories forward" he said calmly.
He looks lost in thought
Probably the idea of another man giving you gifts
Pfft...please – it's Abelas
