It had been two days since their reunion and Leonith was able to finally leave Silvermoon City. He traveled out to Booty Bay and found the quaint little house on top of the furthest hill. It was standing by itself and was made out of slabs of wood. He approached the door and knocked anxiously. Xiapha opened the door and smiled nervously when she saw him.

"I'm glad you came." She said as she let him in. They stood facing each other, feeling awkward. Not sure how the other felt about each other after the past years. Leonith took the first step forward and brought Xiapha into an embrace. Xiapha hesitated for a moment, then returned the hug.

He stroked the back of her head and whispered, "I've missed you. I'm so sorry about everything."

"We have no need to be apologetic." She told him. "We both knew something would eventually happen. It's not our fault." She stepped back to look into his face. "I need to show you something now." Leonith nodded as Xiapha called out. "Leo!"

Leonith raised an eyebrow at her and then he saw a small figure stepping carefully down the stairs.

"Who's that mommy?" The boy asked, examining Leonith.

Leonith cocked his head, he didn't' even have to speak. He knew this young boy was part of him. He had platinum white hair but in the spiky style of his father's. His eyes were a glowing green also like his father's and he had the ears, skin and markings of his mother. He was tall for a young age and carried a small wooden toy sword on his hip.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Leonith whispered to Xiapha.

"After I heard you got apprehended, I didn't want to make things worse by telling you I was expecting. I knew your paths would cross again. He has the same curiosity streak as you and he's so smart." Xiapha smiled proudly.

Leonith looked at her with a new sense of respect. "I'm so proud of you. You gave up everything you had for our child."

"Yes, I worked very hard to keep him away from the war. When he gets old enough, he can choose if he wants to fight, but for now we stay neutral."

Leonith looked back at Leo. "Can we tell him?"

"Of course." Xiapha replied. "He has a right to know." She bent down next to the small half breed boy. "Leo my dear, this is your daddy."

Leo's eyes widened. Leonith grew nervous at his reaction. Would he be angry that his father's not been there for him? Would he even care since Xiapha is all that he needs? His fears dissipated when Leo squealed, "Daddy!" and latched onto Leonith's leg. Leonith chuckled happily and picked up his boy.

"I never talked badly about you, had no reason to." Xiapha told him. "When he noticed other children with their fathers, he questioned why he didn't have one. I simply told him you were away."

Leonith smiled as he hugged small Leo. "You've sacrificed so much Xiapha, there's no reason why I shouldn't do the same. I'm not leaving you or Leo ever again."

That night, while Leo was sound asleep, Xiapha and Leonith discussed their options. They knew they could never bring Leo into any major cities just yet. Leonith suggested moving to the Outland.

"There is a huge neutral city there I've heard. They have portals to all the major cities, just in case one of us needs to return. Then Leo can learn about my people and your people and if he decides to join a faction, he can."

"When he's old enough." Xiapha finished sternly.

Later in the week, Xiapha, Leonith and Leo began preparing for their journey to the Dark Portal. They packed their things and dressed in their armor. The morning before their journey, there was a knock at the door. Leonith opened it and Lunali walked in. Xiapha stood rigid.

"It's okay Xiapha." Lunali said.

Leonith told her, "I summoned her."

"I need to apologize to both of you," she began, "but a thousand apologies would not bandage the wounds I've made. I never realized how serious you two were about each other." She got down on one knee. "So I'm offering my services in any way you wish."

Xiapha helped her back to her feet. "Don't bother with that, just be a good aunt."

"Aunt?" Lunali questioned nervously.

"Leo!" Leonith called. "Come meet your Auntie Lunali!"

"Auntie?!" Lunali choked out.

Leo came from the stairs. "Hi, Auntie Lunali."

The Blood Elf woman was in awe. "What a beautiful child." She breathed.

"Takes after daddy!" Leonith joked as Xiapha gave him a playful glare. He turned to Lunali. "I want you to come with us to the Outland."

"Come with you all? You're a family now, I don't want to get in the way."

"Nonsense," Xiapha said to her, "you're family now as well."

The family laughed together and began their journey to the Outland. Towards their new life and their new future.
