Hey everyone!
Today marks the first year mark of my older sister, Renee (this isn't her real name), past on.
I am doing fine but I do wish that I could smack two of my younger sisters around!

Bogden decided that he hated the Devore. They were as paranoid as a-. Bogden frowned. He couldn't think what the Devore were as paranoid as.
It was a good thing that he and Ashla could deflect suspicions from them but they couldn't count on doing it for all of the telepaths that Voyager had on board.
He almost wished that the slipstream drive would have worked but he and Ashla had seen the crew frozen on some icy world and Ashla trying to keep their child alive after her abdomen had been sliced open. Neither of them had survived. Ashla from loss of her vital blood and the child because it was too young to survive not only in the cold but without Ashla to nourish it inside of her. Without his other half Bogden had gone insane with grief.

Ashla sighed as she stirred the herbal tea in front of her. The tea was suppose to help calm her nerves but she guessed that it only worked on humans and other similar species.
The young telepaths suddenly gathered around her. "Can you tell us a story?" one of them asked.
Ashla smiled.
"Once upon a time on a planet far from here there lived a man named Pallaton, Pallaton was a brave man and he fought for those that couldn't protect themselves. The people loved him but Pallaton knew that he wasn't a good man for he had turned his back on the Gods.
"One night as he traveled by the light of the three moons a beautiful woman appeared by a tree. Pallaton had never seen a woman like her before so he dismounted his Aquina and approached her.
"She smiled kindly at him. 'Hello Pallaton," she said in greeting. 'I have been watching you and I am grateful that you care so much about everyone.'
"Pallaton lowered his head in shame. 'It is true that I have helped those in need but they do not know the truth about me. I cursed the Moon Goddess Ria when my mother died. I prayed so hard to Ria to heal my mother but she didn't answer my pleas.'
"The woman smiled gently. 'I know, for I am Ria, Goddess of Healing.' Pallaton fell to his knees before her and cried. 'Why come to me?' he asked. 'I cursed you to the Void.'
"Ria knelt beside him. 'I came because I want you to get to know me and so that I may have a champion in the times that come ahead.'
"Pallaton nodded and stood. 'I will do whatever you ask.' He whispered to her.
For many years Pallaton went around helping people and doing everything in his power to help Ria.
"One day he discovered that he was in love with Ria but he didn't dare ask her if she felt the same way because she was a goddess.
"His question was soon answered though. In the Realm of the Gods the darkest of them all, Dunkle, wished for Ria for his own Dark purposes. He hated the fact that she would rather be with a mortal then training to one day rule. So he appeared to Pallaton one day as Pallaton was helping a group of people make a shrine for the Gods.
"Dunkle wasted no time in stabbing Pallaton and then vanishing.
"As Pallaton lay dying Ria appeared and gathered him in her arms and took him to the Realm of the Gods.
"She healed his wounds and confessed her love to him and they were married. Their children are Asha, Bo, Cria, Daya, Etan, Fayth and Gyath."
The children smiled and hurried away.

Bogden felt like laughing as the telepaths escaped but he didn't instead he stared at one of the Devore and sent him images of him being hunted by something. It was quite entertaining
