She growled in frustration.
"I am not snapping at you Ryu. I am being bluntly honest. Something I thought you liked. I could start lying if you want."
She giggled. Then watched him with his daughter. She wondered if he would ever be that close to Cambridge.
Shifting her attention back to Anduin, her smile wavered a little. Just as his wavered. He had a passing thought and she wondered who he was thinking of. She may not be the brightest one around but she picked up things fast.
"A knight? How honorable."
She canted her head.
"Who was she?"

She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his shoulder. "Daddy I was scared. I don't know this people." She lifted her face up to his and smiled. "I be ok daddy. I missed you. Mamma made us come here. Momma said the same thing. She says I am a quick learnerer. " She snuggled into his cloak and wrapped her legs around his hips and began bouncing. "Momma is inside. I think she missed you too. Momma is going to be surpirseded to see you." She took her little hand and patted his cheek. "Daddy my birfday is comming. Momma says I can have a horsey for my berfday. Can I have a black one?"

You start lying to me... then we will have words little Missy. Just keep being blunt, you just may have to deal with my stand offishness once in a while.
That mischievious grin still radiating upon his face as he looked at his daughter. He would kiss her softly on the cheek and nod.
"A black horse... interesting but doable. I have a friend that may have one or two. We will see, let me talk to mommy about it."
Those sapphire hues would look around the castle surrounding the garden.
"These people should not scare you though. Many here are my friends, the others... are simply irrelevant. You are the daughter of a god and even at your age, you carry more power than many here can dream of... except mommy. Your not old enough to argue with the royalty around here, but I will teach you that when you're older and you can argue your position with a more vast knowlegde. Royalty knows nothing but arrogance most of the time."
As he walked toward the kitchen, he smiled, that serious countenance fading now. The door would simply open on it's own as he neared it.
"Now where is mommy? I want to surprise her."
He could sense mom in the kitchen, but wanted Kahlan to feel special. He knew anyone who could normally feel his aura would not know his presance this time around. A long story.

She listened hard as her daddy talked. She wanted to be strong like him. Not like a boy but with her magic. She was exctied when he said he would talk to momma about the horse. Her very own horse. Her brother and sister and momma had one. And she was sure daddy had one too. She was solem as he told her not to worry about the strangers. she knew that he, momma and Crystal would watch over her. She closed her eyes and tried to find her momma. "She was by a big fire but she is not there anymore daddy. I think she is in the kitchen now but I am not sure. I am sorry daddy." She wanted to be right. She wanted him proud of her like her momma was.

:He looks at her, the smile fading from his face as a look of regret appeared, Anduin's gaze lowering to the ground as he spoke: Angel DelaSangre...she has gotten engaged to another member of GoldenMyst....

"I am sorry to hear that. I know what it is like to be hurt."
For a spilt second she thought of him and her chest ached. She ran her finger tips over her chest and lowered her head.

He would smile as he felt his daughters energy reach out and he would with her eyes close he would send his own aura fourth to see if it would bounce off Desari's familiar spirit. As he did so, everyone would feel a aura unlike any felt here before, it would carry a similarity to Ryu Yogen of Old, but it was much more invigorating than before, even with a slight dark taint to it, sending shivers through anyone that was hundreds of meters away. As his eyes opened a red glow would be fading, their sapphire shine returning as he looked at his daughter.
"Kitchen you say? Well lets go see lil'lady. I believe your right."
He would kiss her upon the forehead and hug her tightly.
"You make me so proud Kahlan."
And they would walk into the kitchen, his sapphire orbs looking for the lady of Ravenswood....

She had come back into the kitchen from the main hall. Standing at the counter, she was preparing a fresh pot of tea, when felt minds reaching out for her. She knew at once one was her daughter. The other had a familar feel to it and suddenly shivers ran up her spine. She wasn't sure but it felt warm and caressing with a hint of darkness mixed in. She turned around and gasped as she saw her Kahlan with her father. She had seen him briefly as he made his way from his room to the gardens. She had no idea he had decided to stay and that she would find him. She was actually pleased. She wanted to freeze this moment. She saw Kahlan, happy, her eyes bright and Vincent looked the same way. There was no mistaking they were father and daughter. Gathering composure, she smiled. A genuine smile that reached her eyes.
"Good eve to ye Vincent. I see you have found out how independent she can be."
She walked to them both and kissed Kahlan on the cheek.
"You, young lady, should be abed. But since your daddy is here I will let it slide this one time."
She took a step back and looked up at Vincent.
"Will you be staying long?
For some reason, she hoped his answer would be yes.

Those hues just glinted at her question as a slow grin crossed his face. He would lean forward and kiss her gently upon the cheek. His lips seemed cold to the touch, not carrying the heat that his body normally carried.
"For right now, the plan is to stick around for a bit, but sometimes duty calls."
He would look down at his daughter and kiss her as well upon the forehead.
"I would like to spend a little time with my children. I would like to be a father. Also... I would like to be... nevermind."
A dimisive grin and abrupt look at Kahlan said he didn't want to complete his thought.
"So... about that horse."
What am I doing...

Her eyes never left his til he kissed her on the cheek. She was a little surprised of the lack of warmth but dismissed it. Something was always going on with Vincent that she could never explain. When he was ready, he would explain it. He always did. She laid her hand on his arm as Kahlan watched them both.
"I understand your duties Vincent. More now then before as I have three castles to run. Speaking of which when we have a moment of privacy there is something I need to talk to you about. And you know I have never denied you seeing her, spending time with her and being her father."
She sensed something else and stepped closer to them both.
"What is it Vincent? You would like to be what as well? And as for the horse I see she got you on it. I told her that she could have one. I am wondering what you think?"
She caught the grin and and knew he did not want to talk about it right now but she would ask him again when they were alone. For now she was content with him here, holding his daughter.
