Lea smiles. "I'll still need you and Fae to teach me things."

Orias smiles. "All my children are present and accounted for. We are a blessed family."
"We sure are," Sienna says. "Well, we didn't mean to interrupt your dinner..."
"Oh, right, dinner," Gwendolyn says, wiping her tears away. "I'll fix you up some right now."

Tesia, Rhadaya and the rest come upon a busy Hadrinn's where most of the group is eating.
Ylrhea notices Tesia and Rhadaya's arrival. "We might as well get one of those huge tables, love."
She looks between Aliethia and Alethiro, "He's growing up ya know? Maybe he's just looking for a place to fit in, and they're teaching him about stuff that interests him? He has to become his own man, but I can understand her concern." She says thoughtfully before chuckling slightly, "Just wait till he gets a girlfriend."
”Well we can always use an able-bodied warrior or healer. Some of us might be taking a step back from being in the field soon, either due to pregnancy, focusing on taking care of our families, stuff like that.” Sādhanā says thoughtfully. ”The town is growing, and with that comes things that need our attention at home and people to protect it, yet at the same time, there’s still a lot to do all over Zahvroma. And while I might be carrying the torch of the Anizari so to speak, knowledge of Zahvroma and the pervading culture of the Anizari would be really helpful in restoring our sisters to Aroden’s original vision.”
"I guess everyone decided on Hadrinn's," Ylrhea says. "Guess it doesn't hurt to toss some of our earnings his way."
”Nope, as hard as he works and as popular as this place is getting, he’ll probably need to expand and hire a few more people soon.” the magus agrees with a happy smile. It was good to see things growing.
Looking back at the entrance where her love points out the Stormbringers, she smiles. ”Yeah I think that would probably be a good idea.” she says looking to grab the attention of Hadrinn or one of his servers.
Hadrinn approaches the large group. "Are you all eating together?"
Tesia waves at the others before moving forward a bit. She smiles, "Actually wouldn't be dinner without the rest of our family. I'd love for all of us to eat together." She says warmly as she feels very much at home with the people they've surrounded themselves with.
"Gods be with him when he does." Alethrio sarcastically remarked at Arista's comment.
Fae steps over to her niece she leans down a little and says. "Hello there, it's so nice to meet you."

"Oh, right, dinner," Gwendolyn says, wiping her tears away. "I'll fix you up some right now."
"Thank you mother." Cyna says with purpose.
Arista turns her head to look at him with a little smirk on her face before lightly nudging him in the ribs with her elbow, "Hey...."

"Well, that'll be good," Yulia says. "Care for a coffee or tea?"
Gwen looks at Fae curiously. "So that makes you my...aunt?"

"If Marcus has some of your tendencies," Aliethia says. "Then, yes, he shall need the gods on his side."
Hadrinn leads the large group to one of the longer tables in the back. "Nyder! Hurry up, lad, we've got quite a few customers."
Ylrhea sits down and orders an ale and some stew. "I figured since half the restaurant was eating it, I might as well."
"That's right." Fae answers.
Arista stifles a laugh at Aliethia's comment.
"Can't really fault that logic." Sādhanā says with a wink Sitting and ordering the same.
"I'm thinking.....tea will do nicely."
Tesia orders a bowl of stew and a water.
Yulia pours Drago a cup of hot tea. "I'll still be here for a few hours yet. You don't have to stay."
"It's nice to meet you, Aunt Fae," Gwen says. "You too, Aunt Lea."
"Nice to meet you," Lea says with a polite bow of her head.
Lucy goes along with everyone else and orders a stew and ale.
Gwendolyn serves up four more plates of dinner, consisting of venison and vegetables. "So, I suppose you'll be wanting your house back now, Cyna?"
---
Nyder quickly comes and takes the remaining orders while Hadrinn goes to fill them. With surprising service, everyone is served in less than ten minutes.
Divitia gives Aliethia a peck on the cheek. "I'm going to head home, Lili. Don't be out too long. Good to see you again, Arista, Alethiro and, you too, Celine."
"I won't," Aliethia says.
She takes her thumb out of her mouth long enough to wave at Divitia, "Bye bye auntie." Putting her thumb back in her mouth she leans back against her daddy while adjusting herself to get more comfortable.
Giving Divitia a smile and nod of her head she says, "Good night Divitia, it was good seeing you again too."
Tasting the stew she smiles and hums happily as she starts to eat while swaying lightly from side to side, a sure sign that she's happy with what she's eating.

As she orders the same and settles in to a good meal, Rhadaya can't help smiling as she looks at her wife's happy reaction to something she enjoys. It was little things like watching her enjoy something simple that made her heart swell with so much love she often felt like she would burst.
It was good to be home, even if only for a little while.
Looking back at Alethiro she asks, "So...are you going to go ask Magnus about Marcus, or do you want me to do it?"
"It's not exactly big enough for all of us, we'll figure something out." Cyna says taking a seat at the table.

"It's alright. I've spoken to Barclay about renting a place for the time being, since buildings have been popping up every day," Orias says. "If need be, we can pack up tonight."
