She nodded, when she heard the voice of another. It was a Vampire, and she turned to Arioch when he spoke the name. She wasnt sure how this had occured, but she opted to remain quite and let them both speak, watching in interest and surprise.

She nodded. "Yes, I am Ceresa. Aside from the changes in how I am, I am her." She eyed the woman cautiously. She had overheard the words Arioch had spoken to her, and she knew, she was an enemy. "I see your touch still proves to be dangerous." She walked towards him. "I do hope everything has been well for you, my love."

He looked down at Ireht momentarily. Torn between her and Ceresa. He stood there then stepped towards Ceresa stopping feet from her. "How can this be? I watched them bury you. I knew you were dead." He looked around, "Yes as always." She was different he could sense it, but he wasn't thinking of using his ablity to see what the change was. He nodded, "Things have been well. It was hard at first, but now I have someone to help me with my grief along with our daughters and grandchildren."

"Yes, I was buried but another disturbed my grave and brought me to life. I was but a mortal at first, until another decided to use me as food, and here I stand." She eyed the woman when he spoke of how hard things were. She broke into a smile. "I'm sure it was hard, Arioch, my grand Angel of Death. It is true, when they say life holds many surprises. Is she the one who has helped you move on?" She made a motion with her head.

He looked over Ceresa, so many things running through his mind. She was a Vampire. He knew that now becuase of what she said. He sighed and bent down, taking Ireth's hand in his own and pulling her to stand beside him. "Yes, she is. It was ahrd for me to love again. But you once told me to not let love slip from my fingers. I loved you Ceresa, adn still do. But you are not the same person anymore." It was ahrd for him to speak this way to her, he wanted to take her in his arms and just hold her. But it would not be as it had once been for them.

She laughed coldly. "Mere technalities. I am glad you've moved on. It seems things tend to change as always. It seem it is not just you with another, for I have moved on as well, though there are nights when I wish for the warmth and protection only you could give me. Alas, maybe fate shall deal you with anther surprise. I must say, I am sorry but I must take my leave." She stared at the woman, her eyes flashing red for an instant, and she faded away.

She felt Ceresa's cold stares in her directions, and could even sense the malice the Vampiress held for her, just from Arioch's words. She would not mention it to Arioch, but she sensed something more to her words. She squeezed his hand, wondering what emotions must have been passing though his head.

His heart was breaking just from her words. He could not picture her with another, but if it was her wish he could not stop her. He turned to Ireth as she squeezed his hand, then pulled her into hsi embrace, hugging her to him tightly. She was his lifeline now, no matter what angered him. He had to be strong for her.

She wrapped her arms around him. She looked up to him. She could not even begin to wonder how he must feel, seeing that the creature he had loved once with everything he had, had returned. She ran her fingers through his hair, and leaned against his shoulder. "Arioch....are you well after this meeting?..." She pulled away, once again, wanting to make sure.

He looked down her ready to nod, then shook his head, "It is disturbing. And it brings back everythign I once had for her. But they are all empty feelings now. Because I love you as well." He shrugged, "Besides she has moved on just as I have."

She looked at a falling leaf. It was obvious Arioch did not know how a woman's heart worked. He could take what she said to, face meaning, but it wasnt true. She knew that Ceresa had not moved on as she had told him. The stares she had given Arioch were enough to tell a story of how she longed for him. And the stares she had given her, were enough to say that she wished nothing more for an early demise. She squeezed his arm, reassuringly.

He just held her, burrying hsi face against her neck and speaking into it. "You never told me what was ailing you. What is it that had you so sad?" He did not want to think of Ceresa now. He still needed time to think things over about that. He jsut wanted to forget the encounter for the time being and make sure Ireth was alright.

She sighed slightly, she had hoped he didnt remember, but she wasnt going to keep this from him. "It seems the leader of the rebel group resided within the palace." She pulled away, looking down, and crossing her arms, feeling a fresh wave of tears stain her eyes. "Iaraya, my own flesh and blood is the leader of such group..."

He looked down at her and sighed. He had suspected for some time it had been her. He had followed her many times to a certain place where she met with several Elves. But each time she returned defeatedly, as if something had gone wrong. "I suspected her. But I had hoped I was wrong." He wiped the tears away, forgetting hsi own troubles, "How did you find out?"

"She told me...it seems she told both me and Earnur, because he mentioned it before I left the palace." She looked up to him. "In my hands I have the fate of my daughter, and either one will be devastating....Why would she do such a thing. She says because she wished for the other elves to be let out of the city...but why put so many lives in danger. She acted like nothing more than a spoilt child, wishing to do what she had to to get her way, and for what purpose? For her people to die, and to have such a fate be put on her. I cannot do this, Arioch. She is my Selde, and my heart will break regardless of which punishment I inflict upon her.."
