something small for now but don’t overdo it.”
    “Why didn’t Madam Carla tell us about all of this? It would have made things a lot easier.”
    “I think she did.” Troy said.
    “When?” Darius asked. “I don’t remember her ever telling us that either.”
    “Fate shows that the three great sons of Seni shall one day hold one of their own brought forth to you only by those worthy to bear such a precious gift and in giving, mold a new era of men.”
    “How did you remember all of that and what does it mean?”
    “It’s clear if you think about it. And in giving, mold a new era of men. It means, what we have will be passed to them and what they get will be passed to their children and so on and so forth, starting a new breed of power only through our bloodlines.”
    “That would make it harder to hide.” Darius said. “The world is going to find out about this someday.”
    “Let’s just not have that be now.” Adele said. “The world is definitely not ready.”
    “Then we need to get them to control it quick.” I replied. “Just so there are no mistakes.”
    “Test it now. Dirk is older.”
    “How?”
    Adele used her gift to move Dirk’s plate of food away from him.
    “What are you doing?” Darius asked.
    “Just watch.”
    Dirk tried reaching for his plate but it was just far enough out of reach that he couldn’t. He started to get frustrated and let out an angry scream as his little eyes started to turn red.
    “Shit, that’s creepy.” Troy said.
    Adele gave Dirk his plate back and his eyes faded to normal color. “See? There’s an easy way to test it. He’s hungry right now not tired. He calmed it down on his own. It at least means he knows how.”
    “I guess he never had a reason to get like that again.” I said. “I’ve always kept him quite happy.”
    “For that purpose?” Zayden joked.
    “No. He’s always been happy. I haven’t found many things that upset him.”
    “Wait.” Troy stopped anyone from replying and lifted his head higher. “Hear that?”
    “Hear what?” Adele asked.
    Zayden’s eyes turned black. “A horse is riding this way.”
    The rest of us stopped eating and listened. I could slowly started to hear the sound in the distance.
    “No.” Jaylyn said. “You’ve only been back for two days.”
    “You don’t know that’s what it is.” Troy replied.
    “But I have a feeling.”
    “Well, if that’s the case, then we don’t have a choice.” Zayden said.
    “What?!” Adele’s voice was loud and practically shook the glasses at the table. “But we’re supposed to be going to see my father next week.”
    “If we’re needed, you know it can’t be helped. You can just go without us.”
    “No!”
    “All right.” I said, standing up before this got any worse. “I’ll go check, okay? Before you really need to fight about it.”
    “Be careful.” Darius said.
    I nodded as I walked out of the dining room and headed to the door. Someone had rode into the stables with their horse and I slowly started to walk over curiously. If it were a messenger, they wouldn’t have wanted to settle their horse in for any reason.
    “Hello?” I stopped when I saw a dark figure walk out. “Who are you?”
    They were stepping closer. “Did you miss me, Red?”
    I stood placid when I was called Red. I had an idea but couldn’t be sure until he was close enough that I could see his face.
    “Trever!” I ran to him and threw my arms around him.
    “I knew you missed me but I can tell you, I missed you a lot more.”
    “Where have you been? It’s been longer than a year.”
    “I know. I just returned to Dorlin when the King told me where to find you.”
    “Come on. You have to come inside. Jaylyn will be happy to see you. She was beginning to think you were dead.”
    We walked inside and I took him towards the dining room but had him stay outside of the door.
    “Who is it?” Adele asked.
    “You’re not going to believe it.” I walked in and Trever stepped
