A/N: Alright here is Part 2. Enjoy :)


"Kazham, is that you?" Panne said excitedly.

"I can't believe it," he came rushing in to hug her.

"I thought you were gone for all of these years."

A black haired woman with black wings came peeking out of the entrance. "This is my mate, Gale," he pointed to the woman, "And my kids Chambray(the raven) and Tchita(the bunny)."

"I'm happy to see we are not the only survivors." Panne motioned to her family, "This is my mate Eric and my two children Morgan and Yarne."

In Kazham's excitement, he failed to notice the people accompanying Panne. His face took on a grim demeanor.

"You married a man-spawn and had these abominations!"

"WHAT?!" Panne yelled. "I will NOT have you address my family in such way!"

"Do you know what the man-spawn did to us Panne? How could you betray the taguel and mate with this monster."

"Kazham you are sorely mistaken; the humans who took everything from us are evil to say the least, but not all humans are like that. Just like we taguel are not all the same."

"Apparently we are not, that man-spawn must be a good lay for you to do something as despicable as this."

At that statement, Panne pulled out her beaststone.

"Mother, wait!" Morgan cried.

Robin took Panne's hand to stop her. "It's not worth it. Let's just go, we're obviously not wanted here."

"Chambray, Tchita, go into the warren," Kazham spat, the kids were examining Yarne and Morgan, intrigued.

"I cannot believe this," Panne growled as she turned away toward the forest. Robin hurried his family back into the forest before an altercation took place. As they went in, he could hear Kazham say something about "slave again". He was hoping Panne didn't hear it.

"Well that could have gone better," Morgan moaned.

"I knew Kazham would have animosity toward humans, but I wasn't expecting this." Robin could here Panne's voice starting to crack.

"It will be alright; maybe you can try again tomorrow, but without me this time."

"It wouldn't matter and besides, you all are all I need anyway." Panne smiled faintly.

Robin felt really bad about all of this. He knew it wasn't his fault, but he couldn't help but feel guilty anyway. When they arrived back in town, they decided to rest at the inn to cool their heads. In their room, Yarne asked who Kazham was.

"He was a childhood friend of mine," Panne began, "We used to play all of the time together with our friend, Vox. But on the day of the raid, while we were playing in the forest, we heard a lot of screaming coming from the warren. We hurried back to see what was going on and that's when we saw the humans killing everyone. Vox saw a human coming from behind us, but pushed Kazham out of the way and took the attack. We had no time to mourn, so we rushed to where our parents were. When we arrived, Kazham saw the mutilated bodies of his parents on the ground. He was in so much shock that he couldn't even move, even though I urged him that we must escape. I had to leave him because he wouldn't budge and then I ran into the forest, finally stopping when my feet hurt too much to move anymore. I thought they had got him like all of the rest."

There was a dismal silence in the room.

"I guess we can't really blame him for how he reacted back there." Yarne added.

"Do not worry, I should have saw this coming. Any taguel would feel the same about humans. He won't be able to experience everything I've experience in my travels with the army, so it's best that we just give up."

"But Panne, I'm sure…."

"No Robin!" Panne shouted her face in the scowl again, "I will not have him talk down to my family again; Kazham and I are no more!" Panne then curled up into her bed facing the window. Morgan and Yarne, looking solemn as well, headed to bed.

Even though Panne said all of that, Robin knew she would want to be friends with the remaining taguel again. Her spirit and determination before they met them was proof of that. Using his tactical abilities, he tried to think of a plan to convince Kazham so that they could all co-exist together. After thinking of a plan, he waited until night to sneak out to go toward the warren.

Before he left, he went over to Panne to check on her. She was sleeping with a troubled look on her face. He could see dry tears on her cheek, that's when he knew that he must do this. He gave her a kiss on the forehead and tiptoed out of the room.

He arrived at the edge of the forest about to go in, when he heard footsteps. He readied his tome, but as the person neared he could see that it was Morgan.

"Morgan, go back to the inn," he whispered.

"No, I want to come, too. I know what you're doing and I want to help." He thought about his plan and figured it would help if Morgan was there, too.

"Alright, but listen to me…..," he told Morgan his strategy.

"Alright, got it," she said. They then entered the forest using a small fire to light the path. They followed the markings they made earlier to lead them there. As they neared the clearing, they could see light far off in the distance.

"What's that, Father?"

"I'm not sure, maybe they're cooking," he responded.

There was a scream. As soon as they heard it, they ran toward the clearing. There was fire everywhere and bandits surrounding the area.

"Morgan, take the ones on the left and I'll go right."

"Alright!" At that, Morgan changed into beast form and quickly dispatched the two bandits on the left.

As Robin headed toward the right, he could see Kazham on the ground with a wounded leg. He ran over to him.

"Kazham, are you ok?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Trying to save you; now where is the rest of your family." He hesitated, but then said, "They're inside."

"Alright, I'll go get them." Robin took care of the rest of the bandits outside and went inside the warren. He saw Gale clutching her two children while huddled in a corner. A bandit was there about to strike, but luckily Robin was quick enough to shoot a fireball at him. The bandit fell down defeated. Robin went over to the family.

"Are you all alright?" They nodded their heads.

"Look out!" Tchita shouted. The bandit was still alive and threw a hand axe at Robin. It scraped him a little, but Robin was able to pull out his sword and finish him this time.

"Ok everyone, let's get out of here quickly, just in case there are any more left." They got up and followed Robin out of the bunny-like hole. Outside, the fires had settled down and he could see Morgan healing Kazham's wounds. The family ran over to Kazham and hugged him.

"I'm so glad you're safe," Gale said relieved.

"Father, the human risked his life for us; he even got hurt a little," Tchita explained.

"Father, you're hurt?" Morgan panicked.

"It's just a small scrape; I'll be fine." Robin looked at Kazham who tried to avoid eye contact.

"Thank you," he mumbled under his breath.

"No, thanks needed, it was my pleasure. Morgan and I can help clean up this mess they made."

Kazham looked at Robin confused. "Why would you do this for us after what I said earlier?"

"Panne really wanted to be reunited with her kin, she was even crying at being rejected. I came here to try to reconcile our differences because I would do anything to make my beloved happy. I know humans took away your family and I know there is nothing I can do about that, but Panne and I had a dream that we could somehow revive the taguel race; that is why we came from Ylisse to come and find you."

"Ylisse? I thought you looked familiar, are you that tactician that stopped that dragon in the sky?"

"Yes, I am." he answered.

Robin continued."Panne and I fell in love through the experience and that is when she learned that there is still hope in this world for the taguel."

"You really do love her, don't you?"

"With all of my heart." Robin said this with such conviction.

Kazham was amazed at this human. He reminded him of his father who would go to the ends of the earth for his mother. Maybe they weren't so different after all.

There was a long silence. You could hear the crickets chirping as Robin waited for a response from this distressed taguel.

"I-I guess I was wrong about you," Kazham finally said. Robin smiled. Even thought this wasn't his plan, it still worked out in the end.

"There, all finished," Morgan said. "Your foot should be fine now."

Robin put out his hand to help Kazham up. Although tentative, Kazham grabbed it.
