Ahuv
Ahuv noticed the blush on 'Mother's' face, which made his eyes widen some. She... is attracted to me? This was the first time someone actually developed romantic feelings for him. Sure, he helped with matchmaking, yet never in his life did he expect romance to come his way.
What could he do? Furthermore, what was this growing emotion inside him? Was it the romantic love his mother (Adarani) kept telling him about? Several questions entered his mind. While thinking on them, the Blue Monk decided to sit next to 'Mother'. Fro a moment, he did not know what to say.
Finally, unable to think of anything else, he chose to say, "Well... I think you are..." A blush entered his facial features. "C... Cu..." Poor Ahuv could not bring himself to look at her, his eyes focused on the ground. I didn't think it would happen so suddenly, and now I can't even express it!

Hanryyt, Saulkavt, and Ruthtaika
Hanryyt was a little embarrassed when Saulkavt explained that one event. He decided to change the subject a little, just a little. "Well, I guess this is a good time to explain a bit of history, since that bit involves both Adarani and Nylia." He pointed to the one decoration that was elegant: a mural detailing the healing of Pupo by Adarani, the creation of the Vitaiim, the inauguration of the first Grand Abbots, and, lastly, the incident where Nylia threatened Adarani's life.
The Davutite went on to explain the mural. "In the first panel, we see Adarani curing one of the first Amares, whom we now know to be Pupo, of an infection Aspestis placed on him which, against Elder Deity of Illness' expectations, made the man loyal to... I don't know Aspestis' gender, so I'll say 'them'. Aspestis never meant to harm people with disease. He only meant to make it so people would feel bliss from their suffering. Quite an odd immortal, if you ask me. Anyway, Nylia brought Pupo to the first monastery ever made so that Adarani would cure him, which she did."
"The second panel describes the creation of my race, the Vitaiim. From the body models, to the wings, the colors, even the clothing." Hanryyt's voice became for solemn with each panel he described. There was a reason he was doing so. "The third panel shows two Vitaiim being inaugurated as the first Grand Abbots of the Sacriran Order. The female is Jordiik. The male is my direct ancestor, Davu. Jordiik managed agriculture, Davu handled medicine. His Bo Staff he made later on is in this house. It's a family relic that has been cared for and handed down for generations. Decendants of Jordiik are called Jordiikites, whom the family with direct lineage to survived the Cataclysm. The descendants of Davu, like myself, are called Davutites."
His voice was most serious when he mentioned the last part of the mural. "The final section of the mural describes in vivid detail the incident where Nylia came back to that monastery, not with a request for help, but her sword pointed at our matron neck. Nylia blamed her for her miscarriage, when Adarani had no idea happened until she heard the accusations. Every Vitaiim picked up whatever they could use as a weapon and surrounded the two Goddesses in an attempt to defend the Elder Goddess of Love. Davu was the angriest of the lot of them. Of course, Adarani healed Nylia's womb, but since that event, Davu never trusted the Elder Goddess of Revenge again. Many of his descendents, including myself, still did not trust her because of that incident, a distrust which was carried even after the Cataclysm. By that time, however, the deep distrust began to slowly fade. I can only hope it can continue to fade, without anything to ruin it."
Just then, a knock at the door was heard. Saulkavt opened went over to the door. Whoever it could be was beyond the two Sacriran men. When the door was opened, it reveal the Grand Abbot of Agriculture, Ruthtaika.
She came in and turned towards her brother. "Hanryyt, sorry to interupt your conversation, but I think this news is urgent. While you two were spending time together, we received numerous reports of lost souls gone missing. I don't know how it happened, but whatever the cause, it made the Order end up in a heated debate over whether to trust Nylia, sinc she has the portfolio of the Undead. Personally, I do not think it rational to jump to conclusions,but the two side did of the argument did. One side, calling themselves Deltas, blame Nylia for the disappearence of those souls, while th other, the Gammas, say Nylia would never do that. And then there is a third faction: the Omegas, who say we cannot know for sure whether Nylia was behind it. I sid with the Omegas, but that's besides the point. Things went chaotic for a bit. I managed to calm everyone down with my speech and suggestion of bi-yearly athletic tournaments for everyone to let off steam through them, but I don't know how long the calm will last."
Hearing what his sister said made Hanryyt clench his fist. Right when he was ging to take Saulkavt's word on not being so stiff, there was yet again a reason to be skeptic of Nylia. "Gosh darn it! And to think we could breath easy? What could possibly be going on?"
