The triplets soon grew into older children. They just began to understand their magic abilities and were now fully capable of independant speach, thought, and learning.

"That's why I need to show you what true love can be." Ember said, topping her son. "Perhaps, one day, when I'm gone, you can show the same love to your sister."

Litus stared into his mother's eyes. "...I love you, mom."
