Welcome back everyone. I give to you a chapter with Kit and Thoris. Enjoy and review.

Brothers and Sisters

"Kit, you have to understand that Balor is just himself. He isn't putting on a façade or anything he just has to do some soul searching." Thoris, Balor's older half-sister was thirty-four years old. She was quite a bit wiser than Balor but her brother was quick on his feet sometimes.

"Funny, my brother has never been in any need of soul searching… but then again he thinks he's found El Dara… for the third time." Kit and Thoris both laughed. Kat was searching for El Dara not knowing that it was covered in vines and what not because long ago the evabon Procyon had destroyed the city as revenge for the death of Gard's son.

"Why search for a lost city of toys?" Kit raised an eyebrow. 'Toys?' What did Thoris mean by 'toys?' "There is plenty of treasures in the world, not all of them are made of cold metal or shining stones. My grandfather, my maternal grandfather, once said that." Kit thought about this for a moment. Other treasures… like love and friendship? Surely that must have been it!

"Is there anyone you love, Thoris?" This caught Thoris off guard. Kit's question was if there was anyone she loved. She was not sure about anyone she loved but there were suitors… all of them of different ages: Lewxam who was forty-four, Lain who was fifty-five and Nirot who was fifty-two.

"There are suitors, three of them."

"Do you love any of them?"

"Do you love my brother?" This question caused Kit to freeze. It was true she loved Balor but she was starting to doubt that he loved her. Balor had shown affection for her a few times in the past by holding her hand but now she doubted that he would do anything else but that. Finally she nodded. "The suitor that I love is the oldest of them, he isn't a muscle bound berserker or someone who spends so much of the day thinking that he barely interacts with those around him, he is someone who is all heart and I have loved him ever since I was small."

"What should I do about my love for Balor?"

"Do your best and leave the rest, it will turn out alright someday or night." Kit was unsure about Thoris' answer to her question but it was still and answer.
