With a look to Arista, he asked, "How many Teleport spells do you have available?"
Michael nods. "I have an extra."
"Enough for a side trip? There's something I must do."
Arista's mouth drops open in surprise at his question, the answer and what it could mean.

"Where to?"
"Siphas." Alethiro answered.
Putting a hand up she looks at him, "I don't know if going there right now would be a super swell idea sweetie.....but, Ill understand if you feel really strongly about it."

"I'm afraid I can't unless I have really good directions," Michael says.
Clasping her hand in his, the Elf looked into his beloved's eyes. "I do."
Turning back to Michael, "Another time perhaps then."
"I'm sorry, Alethiro..." Michael says quietly.
"Do not blame yourself. No one could have predicted how this trip was going to pan out. But let us not delay, we should allow them to rest before they face whatever trials lie ahead." Turning to the group, "Blessed be your path, and may your journey bring you home swiftly."
"Yours as well," Sienna says. "Keep our home safe."
She looks up at him, "Well, you may not be able to get to Siphas....but, if he has an extra teleport spell....you could still stay tonight with me. If there's a message you want me to give her though when we're done here, I can do that. It might help convince her to come back with us to Valwick."

Clara takes Michael's hand as he casts the teleportation spell.
Alethiro looks at the two preparing to leave. "I'm staying the night. Now more than ever, I need Arista's support. Come get me in the morning." The Elf took hold of the Aasimar's hand and watched as they vanished.
"Will do," Michael says as he and Clara disappear.

Throwing her arms around his neck she squeals as she tries not to literally jump up and down.

Ylrhea breathes a sigh of relief as Clara disappears.
Sādhanā squeezes Ylrhea's hand looking at her, "I know love, it'll get easier with time."
"I hope so," Ylrhea says. "I still feel like the villain here."
Looking at the others while holding his hand she says, "Well...today has been a super long and trying day...in lots of ways. I'm like super tired now...I just feel like all my energies been sucked outta me, so I think what I wanna do now is just go lay down with my husband and go to sleep. We can discuss just how badly we are gonna stomp the shit outta those dwarves in the morning. Have a good night everyone." She smiles as she turns to walk with Alethiro back to the womens sleeping quarters and lay down to sleep with his arms around her once more before they head back into battle.
Cyna resists the urge to yawn along side Sienna. "It's been an ... eventful day. I think it's time to call it a night."
"I guess Drago's keeping watch all night again?" Sienna asks, standing up and helping Cyna to her feet.
Dropping to one knee, Sādhanā takes Ylrhea's face in her hand. "You are not in any way the villain. There is no villain here."
"I...I guess not," Ylrhea says, gazing into Sādhanā's eyes. "Let's go to bed...please?"
"I had planned on taking a bath...but magic will work just as well...I need you more than a soak in a tub tonight." Sādhanā says quietly, stroking Ylrhea's hair.
Cyna bids the group goodnight before heading off with Sienna. "See you in the morning."
"Good night, Captain," Ylrhea says, a relaxed smile on her face.
"Maybe Arista will snore less with Alethiro here," Sienna giggles as she and Cyna enter the bedroom. She pushes two beds together as usual and sets up their bedding.
Arista and Alethrio lay together in another pair of beds that have been pushed together as well. She lays on her side with some of her extra pillows around her, and Alethiro's arm over her. Hardly a sound can be heard coming from the two except for quiet breathing.
Sienna just shakes her head and smiles at the couple. She lays down on the bed, pulling the covers up to her chest. The tiefling holds out a hand to her fiancee.
Sādhanā smiles at the woman who had subtly claimed her heart. "No matter how chaotic today has been, the fact that I get to end it with you in my arms makes every second worth it."
"Am I worth what you had to give up?" Ylrhea asks. "I know I don't think good things about myself...Seeing Clara really didn't help my opinion of myself. You gave up a lot...for me...Words can't even express how much that means..."
"I gave up the idea of true love for the reality of it. I gave up my heart being pulled apart for joining it with the person who already shares it. You know me better than anyone else, Love and everyone else was able to see it." Sādhanā says looking into Ylrhea's eyes. "You are worth everything to me."
Ylrhea merely wraps her arms around Sādhanā, embracing her tightly. "I'll always give you the love you deserve and I'll never leave you alone."
Cyna smiles, taking Sienna's hand and resting her head on the Sorceresses shoulder. She takes in Sienna's warmth and says. "I love you."
"I love you too," Sienna says, holding Cyna close. She ponders saying something more but just keeps her arms wrapped around her love. I'm scared, but...what can I say?
"And I you. Let's go to bed." Sādhanā says standing up and taking Ylrhea's hand in hers. "Do you want to go to the women's quarters or take the men's, Drago is on watch all night and....I just want to be alone with you."
"I guess Drago's keeping watch all night again?" Sienna asks, standing up and helping Cyna to her feet.
"I can, but if it's all the same to you, I'd like some relief after some hours. I'm finding meditation doing all sorts of wonders for my problems." Drago replied.
"I can stay here and keep watch with you, Stormborn. Remember, I do not require sleep either." Tarja volunteered.
"No Tarja, I can't just keep you from your son when there is not need to."
Tarja crossed her arms and gave Drago a stern look, "Ramius can take care of himself. And besides, it's almost time for him to be joined to a Summoner. There is a right of passage that must embark upon alone. I'm staying, and that's final."
Drago raised his hand about to dismiss her, until she gave him that look. Secretly relieved, he conceded, "Alright then, I guess we're standing watch."

Ylrhea cocks her head towards the men's quarters. "That will work."

Smiling,Sādhanā pops into the other room to grab the winter blanket and heads into the men's quarters, with Ylrhea whispering a spell as she does. Two of the beds in the room draw themselves together, the blanket leaving her hands to seemingly spread itself across them.
Ylrhea hops on the bed with a giddy chuckle and looks at the magus with a warm smile on her face. "I've never been this happy."
"I aim to change that, each and every day" Sādhanā says sitting next to her soulmate and leaning in to kiss her gently.
