Taking a Stand
The world of mortals was still alien to Kael. He wondered just how much longer he would have to stay here. Had his mother found any clue as to those who had created the shadow army that attacked Asgard? If not, then how long would it take? It wasn't as if it was all bad here. The Defenders were good people. Svalin was at least being more tolerant of him. Haljborn tended to be at least partially hostile most of the time. Vernique,, He turns slightly to the small woman holding her Asgardian son. He was fond of the woman. But still.. what was he doing here?

The words doubting her abilities to protect Vernique and Solver even with an artificial arm, magical or technological, died on the tip of her tongue and weren't given voice. Svalin didn't want her wife to worry and she didn't want anyone to hear her own doubts and loss of confidence.

"Mayhap," she said. Her arm hurt, but Svalin put on a good face and didn't show it. She didn't like keeping these thoughts and knowledge of the pain away from her wife, but Svalin wasn't going to worry her about anything.

Svalin automatically frowned at the mention of someone else doing the fighting for her. It didn't sit well with her and it twisted her stomach up a bit.

She had never thought about a life where she couldn't fight and where she wouldn't die on the battlefield. Growing old and dying of old age left a very bitter taste in her mouth.

"Aye, he wouldst," she said. Her left hand curled into a fist. Anger welled up inside of her. She shouldn't need her brother or anyone to do any fighting for her. No one else should have to protect her family for her.

	Vernique's not dense; she sees the change in her expression. "Hon, I promise I'm not trying to ruin your warrior cred. You're one of the toughest people I know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This ist not about being tough," Svalin said a little on the hard side. "There ist no honor in this and having others fight for me." The hand stayed in a fist and Solver grabbed it to shove a knuckle in his mouth to chew on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It ist not the same," Svalin said. "I cannot protect thee and Solver with one arm or defend the Golden Realm from its enemies." (Reply to this)(Parent)
