This is Something I Can't Even Explain

I was really glad for the arrival of Ahren and Morgana.  Though I wasn't too sure it was a good thing either.

For one thing, it stopped training.  That was a relief

But another thing, Dari, Morgana, and I all watched helplessly as the siblings argued.  Well, Morgana heard them arguing, my bad.  Rolling her eyes, Dari plopped down on the grass, muttering to herself.  Morgana turned her grey eyes to me, staring at me dead on in the eyes.  Her long, wavy pitch-black hair moved as she stared at me.  Isn't she supposed to be blind?  I waved a hand in front of her face, but her eyes were unmoving, not even blinking.  I mentally freaked out.

"Stop moving your hand like a monkey," she said.  "I am blind, but my other senses are heightened."

Embarrassed, I dropped my hand to my side.  "Who's your godly parent?"

"Trivia, though you guys know her as Hecate," Morgana answered.  

"Hecate... the goddess of what again?" I wondered.  "Oh right!  The goddess of magic or something."

By now the twin's arguing was becoming shouts.

"You had two choices!" Faren yelled.  "Either to stay with your only living family member or go with them!"

Ahren sighed exasperatedly.  "It was a hard choice to make, I swear.  In the end, I chose what I felt what was right for me."

"What was right for you," Faren groaned.  "All you ever think about is YOU.  What about the people around you?"

Dari, Morgana, and I shared an uneasy glance.  I didn't want to join in on the conversation.

"Right Dante?" Faren asked.

"Excuse me?" I asked.  

"I SAID," Faren stated.  "that Ahren is a selfish idiot."

"Uh..."  Someone, please help me.

"Leave the poor kid alone," Ahren said.  "He barely knows me."  Yes, thank you.

Dari cleared her throat.  "Can you guys stop fighting?  It's making me have a headache!"  Miraculously, as if a war had been fought and had declared victory, those two finally shut up.

 Faren gave us a dirty look and walked away.  Ahren looked at her as she walked away.  

"Sorry Morgana, but the mist is distracting me right now.  It looks like I'm walking on a bunch of fog," Ahren said.  Morgana nodded and the mist disappeared.  I saw Dari lift her foot up to see if it was still there.

"The mist is barely noticeable," I noted.  "How did he see it?"

Morgana shrugged.  "Ahren always notices the little facts."

"Are you guys talking about me behind my back?" Ahren asked.  "I believe proper introductions are to be made.  I'm Ahren Lockwood, and this is--"

"Morgana Pendragon," Morgana cut in.  "I know, it's a terrible coincidence.  Also, I can introduce myself, Ahren."

"She hates it when I try to help her."
