Descending Fire 15,
*Arachnia slipped into the room with Ress, the pale-haired little girl in her arms. The little one was looking around intently, munching on her blanket. When she saw Ress, all signs of stealth were gone as she let out a happy cry that she used for him. Arachnia smiled warmly at her and held her daughter up so that she could see her daddy*
Hello, my Mate

* In their private quarters, Ress sat at a large round table, leaning forward as the first age platform projected a three dimensional map of the scavenger lands for the Emperor's scrutiny. He heaved a sigh as he moved known guild trade routs onto the image by hand, this tedious procedure unfortunately being hugely vital to his efforts to mitigate the Empire's ever growing financial problems.
He shut the platform down when Arachnia and turned to greet her and their baby*
" Hello Arachnia... hello Miakoda! How are you two?"
* He waved to the small baby, the weight of the affairs of state slowly lifting off his shoulders*

*the open windows let the cool evening breeze in as Arachnia lowered herself lightly onto his lap, the baby settling onto hers. Leaning in, the empress kissed Ress deeply on his lips, flicking her tongue against his before pulling back to smile at him, her eyes locked intently onto his. Miakoda grabbed Ress's shirt, pulling him to her so that she could be close to daddy*
We are contemplative. How are you handling the financial situation? I can always find ways to consult outside of the empire

* Her kisses many times took him by surprise, causing his hair to stick straight up from the top of his head to the back. With a small squeek, he smoothed his hair back down, then heaved a sigh, a goofy smile plastered on his face... but as always he regained his composure, clearing his throat as to take the attention of his little 'tick'.
He chuckled a little as he reached for their baby, taking her in his arms and siting her on his lap.
Ress placed a kiss on top of her head, before looking back to Arachnia*
"Contemplative oh? What of?... and if you have a connection in the northeast that would be magnificent!... We are okay... but okay is not good enough when you are supporting a nation"

Descending Fire 15,
Quite true, my Mate. It is possible for me to acquire a contact there, though I will check with my resources to see if any of them are already in the area
*the spider-woman smiled, thoroughly loving the effect she had on Ress. Her black eyes flashed hungry as she took him in, but she let it become a smolder while she answered his previous question*
Three of my brood are leaving the empire to make it on their own. They wish to start their own ideal societies and better make a name for themselves in the world. It bothers me.
*the empress's brow creased for a moment as she thought about it, smoothing back to normal as she gave a nonchalant glance to the side of her*

* He nodded, leaning against her a little, cradling their baby in his arms*
" I see... they are feeling the pull of destiny on them? I am sorry this bothers you... why? is this?"
* he gave her cheek a quick kiss, then rested his head on her shoulder*

It should not, but I suppose I am paranoid. I worry that they are leaving too soon and will be easily taken advantage of. As their mentor I gave them advice and now all I can do is wait to hear from them. Let us hope that they do well
*Miakoda grabbed Ress's fingers and started to put them in her mouth as Arachnia spoke. Arachnia stroked Ress's hair a little, noticing that Miakoda had a hold of his hand*
Be careful with her, her first set of fangs are coming in quickly. She bites

* Ress stopped in his tracks, hearing that their baby now had fangs and could bite... but quickly brushed it off as minor, allowing her to nibble if she liked*
" You tought them well.. I am sure they will be fine.. and besides, they will keep in touch. They will make great Lunars, my mate.. just you wait and see!"

It's foolish, really. I don't know why I am concerned. They're simply students, after all
* Arachnia stood and leaned against the table as she spoke, adopting a carefree expression. Miakoda put Ress's finger in her mouth and bit down. He would feel the tiny fangs pierce his flesh like pinpricks. They drew small beads of blood which his daughter promptly sucked down, effectively ingesting his blood.*
Well, then, I will focus on something else, then. Perhaps I will check in on Urser and be sure to find contacts in the Northeast for you
