Gladro looked at Valentin put his hand on Aarys. "By the old one, are you pregnant?" asked Gladro.

[Eltee]

Aarys reddened. She placed her hand on her stomach. "Okay." She said in response to Valentin.

[Kerr]

Gladro's jaw dropped "You are, aren't you?" he asked.

[Eltee]

Aarys nodded almost imperceptibly.

[Leyyuce]

"A stampede? What in God's name-" Peter rose within the tent, urging Mary to do the same.

[King Acunasti]

"We think so." Valentin inturrupted.

[Eltee]

"We think so." Aarys agreed. "Come on, Val!!!"

[Kerr]

"Well if you are then l hope you two will be happy, and i'm so being godfather." said Gladro before walking away from the tent entrance, ready for battle.

[King Acunasti]

"Aarys," Valentin said, "You stay safe. Got that?"

[Eltee]

"I got it." Aarys said softly. "You too, Val. Please, please be careful."

[King Acunasti]

"I don't have anything living inside my body." Valentin said. "Don't get hurt. Please."

[Eltee]

Aarys cocked her pistol and shoved it into it's holster. "Okay..." She whispered. "Let's go."

[Arch-Mage Matt]

Ashriel literally crashed into Aarys from the side. His eyes were half closed and his hair was messed up. "Watch it, lovergirl." Ashriel said tiredly. "What's going on?" He yawend. "I was sleeping."

[Kerr]

"Some kind of raid." answered Gladro.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

"A friendly raid?" Ashriel asked hopefully. "Butterflies riding in on kittens? Oh, please say yes."

[Kerr]

"Guys on horseback I think." said Gladro.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

"Will I have to shoot anybody?" Ashriel groaned.

[Kerr]

"Well you could stand there and get killed if you really want to." replied Gladro.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

Ashriel sighed. "I'll never get a good night's sleep here." Just then, a rebel came rushing by. Without hesitating, Ashriel slipped a pistol off the rebel's belt as he passed. "I'm sure he won't need it." He said.

[Eltee]

Aarys had fallen into the snow. "Ah, what the hell?" She squeaked.

[King Acunasti]

"Watch where you're going!" Valentin growled at Ashriel. He helped Aarys to her feet. "You alright, sweetheart?" he asked her.

[Eltee]

"I'm fine..." Aarys replied, fumbling for her rifle, which had likewise fallen in the snow.

[King Acunasti]

"You stay right with me." Valentin said firmly, holding Aarys at his side while he braced for whatever was coming.

[Eltee]

Aarys cocked her rifle with an ominous clack. "Right with you." she said fiercely.
