She was tempted to not believe her, but Jahanaci did. She and Windris were friends, hadn't Windris been there when Lethe had been born?
Lethe..
And didn't Chres bring the little demon into this world?
He saved the child...
...only to destroy her later.

}The pale skinned femme watched the wraith as she grieved. The pain in her soul radiating into the air. She was going to lose her daughter, though the reason was not quite clear, nor did the vampiress think that she should pry to learn such information. The other facts ahd simply come to her across the breeze, one of the advantages and disadvantages to her heritage. The black clothed figure appeared from the shadows, wishing only to try and bring some comfort to this new found member of the Sands. Glowing blue eyes watched her closely as she revealed herself, she had not been prying and now would leave without speaking if the other wished it so. She wanted only to offer a shoulder to lean on and maybe a few words that were meant to bring a slight consolement, for she knew that nothing would bring complete rest to the troubled soul. But a kind being to be there was always a nice retreat from the pain...{

General Jahanaci turned her heard sharply, her own long fangs bared in agression. "Who goes there?" she snarled wearily, but faltered in the anger that truly was not in her nature. THAT was Chres's nature, she would NOT be like her awful sibling. Yet, that awful sibling was master of the Stained, the unknown one.
Jah's pinions slumped and she said more kindly, "Who's there?"

The winged vixen, second in command of this terra, landed beside her friend without a sound. Navy pools shifted from the Wraith to the vampiress. She smiled kindly to Liana but shook her head. Now was not the time to meet Jah. She needed to speak to her in privacy. And she knew the vampiress would heed that request. Golden haired beauty turned her gaze back to the one with raven locks and tattered wings. She took a deep breath, trying to think her words over. She didn't want to make her friend angry. She had been through enough.

You know that I will be true to my word. Lethe will not die if I can stop it. But you need to realize something...and as Lethe's mother, it may be hard for you to do.

Vixen took another deep breath, not thinking over her words, but deffinately thinking over what Jah's reaction to them would be. But they needed to be said no matter what. Someone had to say them, and since there weren't many left in their lands, it would be her job to do that.

You need to realize that Lethe is not truely your daughter. She is her father's daughter. We call ourselves evil, but we do not harm the one's we care for. We have enough of a heart to protect the one's we love, not hurt them. Lethe has no heart. She does not care about anyone. Her uncle saved her life. But she told me she would have lived without his help. His helping her, even though he didn't want to, is the reason he is now dying. In other words, your brother gave his life to save Lethe's, whom he didn't think should live. But he saved her for your sake...because you are his sister and he loves you. He did it for you. He gave his life so you would be happy. And now, because your daughter has gone against everyone here, everyone that trusted her, you are taking her side over your brother's.

She took Jah's hand in hers, falling silent for a moment. But everything needed to be said. They did not know how much time Chres had left. So everything simply needed to be said now.

Hate echoes in your heart for your brother, yet he has done nothing to earn it. I may not know of the long ago past, what happened then, but I do know of the current past. He had done everything possible to make sure that Lethe would be okay so that you would be happy. And now she has turned against him. She is the one slowly killing him and enjoying it. And if you think that a being like that, that could do something like that to the person that saved her life could still love her mother, you're wrong. She does not love you, she does not care about you. You need to see that, you need to understand it. Because you may be a link between her and your brother that could save your brother's life. I know that is asking you to choose between them, but I don't think there is much of a choice. Though I would make sure that Lethe lives for your sake if at all possible, I will not pretend that I do not think that she deserves to die. She's killing your brother and indirectly killing me. My life is linked to his. If he dies, so do I...and she knows it. Do you think she cares? I garuntee you she doesn't.

Again, the vixen fell silent. She knew that Jah would not like hearing anything that she had just said...but it had to be said. She did not speak a single word that was not the truth. She loved her friend dearly. Jah was like a sister. But she needed to open her eyes to the truth, to reality...



((OOC: Hey there, hope you like the new BSS. Anyways, I have net again, so I will be posting more often now. Unless my mom gets pissed at me and unplugs the puter again.))

Jah pulled her hand away angrily, hissing. "Chrestomanci can rot in his grave!" Her anger faltered, becoming tears, "You don't understand! You don't know what it's like to lose a child.." Her eyes widened suddenly, realizing she might as well just punched Windris in the face for all the pain those words would cause.
"I'm sorry," she whispered, "I-I can't help it. Lethe is mine, no matter how it is looked at. I'm the one who allowed Nazgul to-." Her words faltered again, "I love my brother, and I know he's trying to do something right for a change. And I'd rather die myself then know what the pain of loving him is like, that love that you have for him. But Windris, you can't hold on..just like I can't hold on to Lethe..We must expect the worst." The words were spoken so forlornly, Windris' speech having an effect on the Wraith.

Those words hurt. She may not have given birth but she had carried a child for a short while. And she had lost it and almost her own life. Though that child had not been conceived in a way she wanted to remember, it had been an innocent in everything. Lethe was far from innocent. She liked what she was doing. She enjoyed it.

I know Lethe is still your daughter, but she doesn't love you. Any love she shows for you is fake. She is urging you to turn against all of us. Not just your brother, but all that live here. All that call this home. She's enjoying her little game. You have to see that.

She sighed, shaking her head. Strawberry blonde tresses shook, the wind catching them and blowing them about her tanned face.

I love him, yes. And I know he doesn't love me back and that hurts, but it does not change how I feel about him. I can't let go of my love for Chres, you're right about that. I know you love your daughter simply because she is you daughter. Nothing can change that. But she is the one that is making you choose. And you must choose because we are now divided thanks to her games. Just remember, no matter what, I will always be our friend. I may not know exactly how you feel, but I'm closer to understanding than anyone else you know.

She sighed softly, falling silent. Slender fingers rubbed at her now aching temple. All of this was giving her a headache. She was confused and sad. And for one of the few times in her life, she was scared. She wanted to see Chres, but she didn't know where he was. She would just have to wait...

Jah sighed deeply, "I'm trying.." she managed, keeping her eyes pointedly away from her daughter's prison. She turned now to console the Death Angel, "Chres loves you- don't let him tell you otherwise. He looks at you with something other commanding, he sees you as an equal. His only equal. But, still- avoid him, draw yourself away from him. He'll die, you know that, and you can live if you keep from him. I'm here for you.." She said, her last sentence mirroring that of her friend. They would have to support each other..or else, none of the original inhabitants of the Sands would survive this.

She looked up, navy orbs focusing on her dear friends face. She offered her a small, sad smile of thanks, taking her hand and squeezing it. She looked away, across the vast expanses of the desert that was their home.

As much as I don't want to die, I know that if Chres does, I will too. My not being near him won't change that. I no longer have my own soul. My soul is binded to his. When he dies, my soul won't be able to survive as a half and it will cause me to die as well. Then again, if Chres dies, I'm not sure I would want to live.

She looked back to her friend, tears glistening in her dark eyes. This was not easy for any of them. Almost none of those that had begun this home in the Sands would live to keep it going. At least that's how it seemed at the moment.

As for Chres loving me, he doesn't and you know it. He may see me as his equal, and that does mean a lot to me, but that is all he sees me as. Nothing more.

The truth hurt her, but she couldn't let herself dream. She had given up on anything coming from between her and Chres, but that didn't mean she could stop loving him. That wasn't the way it worked...

The femme's vision suddenly blanked out, her mind spinning in pain and confusion at the same moment her name was whispered urgently in her mind. Unknowingly, she had stumbled forward slightly, falling against Jah. After she could she again, even if it was a little blurry, she straightend and looked about frantically. Chres, where was he? He needed her right now. She turned back to Jah, navy orbs focusing on her friends face as she offered a quick explanation.

Jah, I have to go. Something is wrong with Chres. He's worse than before. I will be back to talk to you later. Don't lose hope.

She squeezed her friends hang, then stepped back and spread her huge wings. The wind caressed her, the feathers upon her pinions fluttering as she leaped into the air to scan over the Sands for Chres...

Jah watched her go. She knew Windris did not know Chrestomanci as she thought she did. Being his sibling, Jah had a connection with him to- yet it was nowhere near the extent of Windris'. Jah knew Chres loved Windris, she only hoped he would tell her...before he died.
