"Okay, I'm listening," Treemara said.
Wow, he thought to himself, The Ethreals have blessed me.

[unokitsune]

"Hot springs. Despite how cold our planets are, there are places where it is green and vibrant. There are places where there is lava and active volcanoes. We keep these locations secret, especially from O'Sekra. They are sacred, holy, special. In preparation for a Ssayanarot hunt, the strong Zandri are seperated from the weak ones. We are dipped in a very special healing hot spring, Sseara Laaveenae's Tears. It has healing properties but it is so hot it can kill us. We have to fully submerge then pull ourselves out. It has killed many Zandri, but those who survive are strong both female and male. If your sister were to bathe in it, she would be healed and she would be able to have children once more. However, the problems are..." She began.

"It's on Jaaxor, my birth planet, in a very secret place even Zzruh does not know. We won't be able to go there with this war like it is, even I would be killed on sight or attempted to be killed. Zzruh right now has influence...however he may go mad... It is too dangerous to go there right now. And I know of only one way that an O'Sekra, or this case two, would be allowed to see this sacred site. You, not being Zandri, would not be allowed to bathe in it before a hunt, likewise Keema, too innocent...weak but she would need to be strong for this. You would have to prove yourself and I would have to re-prove myself but it won't be easy. The Ssayanarot are tough...but there are six in particular that have not been brought down in over a century. They are very specific Ssayanarot, the Great Six, pass on their genes. A Male of the Great Six, who impregnants a lesser female, she will die giving birth and it's always to one cub that is raised by the Great Six to be a replacment. A Female of the Great Six, who mates with a lesser Ssayanarot, will kill him after mating after she is impregnated. We would have to kill one, together, and it will have to be traditionally. Simply put you can not use guns with it no matter how much of a great shot you are, you can however use ice bows and arrows. We kill one then they can't deny you or your sister from bathing in The Sacred Tears. Your sister would be healed, but it won't be easy."

Aaro allowed her magic to dissapate some. "When we do this training hologram and the O'Sekra train for it, the Zandri will know that one of their own betrayed them. Linking with what happened between Zzruh and I, they will know it's me. I would essentially be slain unless I proved myself, but not simply killing a Ssayanarot. No..I would have to use my voice to raise a grand temple to Sseeara Laaveenae, and if it doesn't kill me it will leave me very weak so I would have to get stronger as well. It would be expected that I have a child at this point, a Zandri child, to know that I'm serious in my worship of her. It will not be easy, and you cannot bring -any- recording device. Not even alll of the Zandri know about it. You and Keema will be the only ones to know, and you will have to be lead to it blindfolded. There is also the matter of my birth family, we go there and we will face them. There is so much Re-proving I will have to do and so much proving you will have to do...but it is the only way I know to heal Keema. It might even make her more fertile than your race is known to be."

Aaro then allowed the ice to dissapear, back on her flesh and she fell to her knees in a sigh. It was clear she hadn't done that in awhile.

I thought I was meant to be making the side quests here?

Aaro
"You still kill things with bows?" Treemara sighed, "I'll do it- but are you okay with it?"

[unokitsune]

"These are Zandri Bows, and it's very traditional. Swords are allowed to be used to." Aaro sighed. "Throwing knives and ice-cannons are new, and it's frowned upon. Also you might not believe this but the closer we get to it, the very land will test us, it comes to life without Zandri song." She got up. "You will also need to be protected, you will need a low tech survival suit, perhaps a Heelox can make one. You come in that armor, they'll kill you thinking you have come to destroy it also that armor has recording devices on it." Aaro walked over to him. "But I care for you, and I have faith that we can do it together. This planet, Hyaati, their Zandri may or may not remember. And when we complete this hologram training, it won't be long before the Zandri learn. They will also become stronger as a result to the newly trained O'Sekra...it will leave us a very small opportunity with Zzruh...My race isn't a weak one, even if we use low-tech weapons."

She held his face in her hands "So...are you my forever mate now?" She asked him, wanting to hear the words directly from him.

Hidden:

You love it.

[Justice knight]

Aaro
Treemara's mind was reeling.
"Of course," He said then he smiled, "I suppose you would have to kill me if I said no?"

[unokitsune]

She looked him in the eyes and he could tell she was serious "Yes, I actually would have to do that." And she let out a tear. Though she was happy he said yes, she still wasn't happy about the thought if he said no that she actually would have to kill him. "This is a secret, one that is invite only. It can't be known. Like with what I did with Zzruh, before I knew what he did...I would be killed if any O'Sekra knew other than you. Likewise I, and other priestess's would kill you if you told others, and we would have to kill them to. We are allowed to speak to family about this, which is why I had to ask, it was to protect you, Treemara." She looked up in his eyes so he could see she was telling the truth.

[Justice knight]

Aaro
Treemara gave Aaro a soft smile and a slow nod.
"It will stay with me until my dying breath."

[unokitsune]

Aaro kissed him then. When she broke off from it she spoke again "And if you want an O'Sekra child, I'm ok with you finding a Surrogant female for that role, I would raise it as my own." She put her hand on his face. She awaited his response to this.

[Justice knight]

Aaro
"And if you wanted a Zandri child," Treemara said, "I'm happy for the you to find a male."

[unokitsune]

Aaro smiled at him and hugged him. "And we would raise them, together. We would have to work together in training, like O'Sekra, a Zandri can be trained as a warrior from birth, but song will be important too. I hope for a girl, to train a priestess." She smiled and kissed him.

[Justice knight]

Aaro
"We have more present things to worry about for now though," Treemara said.

[unokitsune]

Aaro frowned, "This is true. And I have to prepare my singing, get stronger with that as well. But I will go through with this, because I...I" She paused for a moment, "I love you, Treemara."

[Justice knight]

Aaro
"Well we should make this official," Treemara said.

[unokitsune]

"Official?" She asked him not knowing what he meant.

[Justice knight]

Aaro
"Zandri don't have a bonding ceremony?" Treemara asked.

[unokitsune]

"Oh...i didn't know that Zandri and O'Sekra could marry like that. We do...and it varies depending if the couple is warrior...singer, or both." Zandri smiled at him. "To be honest I don't know much about it...When I was with Zzruh he didn't wish me to speak of it. So I guess it could be an experience, a very good one." She smiled at him and hugged him tightly.

[Archer]

"I think we had about 200." Jack said after a little thought. All of a sudden he perked up after hearing the captain broadcast through the radio. "That was our captain, I know where the rest of the survivors should be, but i'm not sure it would be a good idea for you too meet them like this." he said, gesturing to the immense battle suit.

[The SheoDovah]

David started to regain conciousness but couldn't make out where he was. "Jess, Jess i'm so sorry. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have volunteered as it' my fault you are dead." He uttered weakly. "Jess, please forgive me. Please forgive me. Why did you have to die? Why not me as well?" He uttered in the same weak tone. He felt that he had caused Jess's death and didn't feel like his life was worth living without her. "Jess, please be alive. Please let this just be a nightmare." He uttered again as tears flowed down his cheeks and started sobbing. Anger had left him and in it's place, sorrow had filled it's gap. "Jess, why you? Why you? Why couldn't we both die together? Life is not worth living without you." He cried unaware of his surrondings.

Meanwhile in the infirmary...

Yetty looked at the O'Sekra and Aaro run out. He raised an eyebrow and had a small chuckle to himself. "Well I think you'd be seeing more of her." He said to Keema.

[philfredobob]

Adam listened to the radio transmission. the captain.. maybe he has some idea about whats going on here.

as Adam, Sam, and the enforcers were walking along towards the armoury, Adam noticed that David, who was still being carried by the enforcer, seemed to be making noise. it sounded like crying. poor guy ... Adam thought to himself, without saying anything, he sighed. guess we just have to leave him to grieve...

[The SheoDovah]

David's sobbing got harder as the group walked towards the armoury. He was swallowed up by grief. "Why not me? Why couldn't i have died alongside Jess? Life is not worth living!" He cried out in a tearful tone. He would mourn her death untill he too was dead.

[p-sto]

Cyril walked down the hallway towards the armoury. Every now and then he would look over his shoulder and shine a light back to make sure that they wouldn't be attacked from behind.

[Musicman247]

James, with Jessica still at his side, matched Cyril step for step.

"We're not coming out of these," Kaleem said, "Especially if there are Banshee's on board."

Cyril James and Jessica
The trio heard a heavy clomping from up the hall.

Aaro
"Really? O'Sekra ones are so different," Treemara said.

"She seems like a handful," Keema said.
