I've been sick

[Nox]

Nox sighed when Rachel left. With his power he could hear half of the conversation. She wasn't very far away. Nox had a feeling he was about to get slapped in the face by big sis. Cain true to his nature so far tried to calm the situation.

Nox leaned back against the couch he was sitting in and looked across at Cruz and Rachel. "Alright first off, let's not call Dorian Daddy... alright? Yeah that's just wrong."
Nox grinned playfully. "Second, Rachel I'm assuming your sister is going to make a visit. I would if I were her. Shit hit the fan. "


"Yes. Dorian and I are Atharim. Sadly our manifesto says to kill reborn gods. Me, you and Cain."
Nox pointed at Cruz. "I'm not going to hurt you obviously which is why Dorian called me. He said you have questions. I'm assuming the first was is it safe to tell your girlfriend? Yeah it is. The Atharim will kill the family for genetic reasons - not so much for the knowledge, who was going to believe in magic?"


Nox sighed. "So your dad, is in just as much danger as you are Cruz. More so since he didn't kill you himself."


"What else do you want to know?"


"Ivan helped me understand how to touch the power. But what good is that?"

Nox grinned. "Touching the source of power is the hardest part. Some have blocks. Mine was having to actually be in physical contact with my sister. Forgetting I had one for a while allowed me to control to my power. I've a friend who had to get embarrassed, another has to recite prayers. Cain's is fear, I think. How many times did you get sick?"


Cruz looked a little confused. "Just the once."

"What did you do? What strange thing happened? Me I shot a fireball from my hand. My sister she healed me, or at least that's what we assume she did as that seemed to be her talent."
Nox sighed and pushed away the memories. It was hard talking about Aurora in the past tense. His sister was dead.

"I don't know. Really nothing weird happened."

Nox grinned. "Doesn't matter. Your Dad did good getting you help right away. So you can touch the power?


Cruz nodded and in a few moments Nox cold feel the presense of another godling in the room. He grinned. "Good job. Try to make the ball of light I showed you earlier."


Cruz tried... Nox watched as the threads of light flickered and flutered before them.
